Slim line and a TL29

Post by Winchester M21 »

I put new handles on these two today. A ten dot slimline and a Camillus that I removed the screwdriver blade and moved the liner lock to opposite side so it will lock the single blade.

Those look real nice! Wow!

What kind of bone was that?

Colonel, I'll bet it is a front leg bone from Bambi. Let's see what Shawn sez. :)

Awesome, and very creative job Shawn! I also can't wait to hear about the bone and how did you cure or age it? ::tu:: ::tu:: ::tu::

That's a top tier job right there! How to you do the pins just peen them over or are you spinning them somw how. Always scared to me to take a knife apart and not get the pins right...I'm tempted to try but that's has stopped me

This is wildebeest bone that I bought from Jantz knife supply. Had to cut it up myself and that was tricky to get enough pieces that would layout right! Hopefully someone comes up with precut slabs to make the next one easier because I really like the character in the bone. Kinda looks like mammoth

Thanks for the compliments!!

I forgot to answer your question on pins. I peened them and then spun them clean them up.

Thanks for the reply! I have to make up some dies so I can try and spin brass pins.
