Cammilus TL-29 EDC in jeancarta

Post by muskrat man »

I rebuilt this cammilus TL-29 electricians knife today, did my EDC mod as usual, I tried an altered vine pattern of filework which I like. I also handled it in homemade jeancarta, I really like the stuff. I also thinned (was real thick on the edge) the blade and cleaned the blade of pits and deep scratches. I'm keeping this one as an EDC, this is one of my favorites now. The old cammilus steel really sharpens up good.
Still working on my photo skills
