Few rehandled Case Sodbusters, Camillus and ZT
Few rehandled Case Sodbusters, Camillus and ZT
Hi to all! I like make something by my hands. I love sodbuster pattern so mush because it very simple and easy for customizing. Also my interests lay not only around folders (if you understand my English). I like make handles for fixred knives and sew a sheathes. I like modern materials too, but do not forget about bone and stag =) In all it is just a hobby
It is a few of my old projects...

Re: Few rehandled Case Sodbusters, Camillus and ZT
Sodbusters are another great blank canvas for customization. Yours are all really nice works of art!
I really enjoyed your video where you re-handled a sodbuster. THANKS!!
If you haven't done one, you should doll up a TL-29..... those are FUN!
Beautiful work!
Thanks for showing!

Re: Few rehandled Case Sodbusters, Camillus and ZT
Great looking work and excellent material selection. They remind me of some of the materials GEC has used.
Pocket, fixed, machete, axe, it's all good!

Re: Few rehandled Case Sodbusters, Camillus and ZT
I customized not a lot, also I did not take a photo of each knife. I also make a fixed, but it is a theme for a new topic in another thread =)

Those handles are AWESOME!!

Re: Few rehandled Case Sodbusters, Camillus and ZT
You did some beautiful work on those knives! I think that there is a place for all types of handle materials - not just bone and stag. Man-made materials can look great on certain style knives, as you just proved!
I especially love the filework. It is really great!

Re: Few rehandled Case Sodbusters, Camillus and ZT
Beautiful work on the knives! I am personally not a big fan of the handle material,
but it does look nice when it's well done, and yours are very well done!

Re: Few rehandled Case Sodbusters, Camillus and ZT
I agree with you that plastic is not outstanding =) I also use stag, bone and wood =)

Re: Few rehandled Case Sodbusters, Camillus and ZT
Great work on your knives. I also enjoyed your video and looking at your shop and tools. Funny mine isn't near that clean? Just curious can you buy Case knives off the shelf in Russia? Have made in China knives saturated the market there as they have here? Post us some more pictures and God speed.

Re: Few rehandled Case Sodbusters, Camillus and ZT
Thanks. Now in my workshop. Narratin text for two next videos. We have only one Greedy Case dealer at Moscow. Case knives unpopular in Russia but known. I bought Case knives at US it is about 98,9 % of my collection. And yes, china knives flood our markets. Nobody care because they are so cheap. But quality is so low. But sometime quality is perfect and price suddenly rise up and picture of what do you wanna see?just bob wrote: ↑Fri Nov 08, 2019 1:40 pm Great work on your knives.

Hi Crowfoot,
I just started collecting knive this past spring so I still have to learn a lot. Can you tell me how you cleaned the blades on the last pictures you posted? What do you use?
And I love the file work you do on the springs, it looks great, but does that have any effect on the blade snap 5 or 10 years latter? Do the springs weaken faster than springs that have not been filed? Just curious.
Thank you for your time,
Tom

I use sandpaper and hands. Something around 1000 grit. If wears strong - 600. Start from low to high 600-1000-1500-2000 (maybe 5000) and polish after =)TPK wrote: ↑Fri Nov 08, 2019 3:49 pm Hi Crowfoot,

Polish with Dialux but use Russian analog "ГОИ" it is abbreviation from Government Optical Institute (bricks of it have only one, green color)
About back springs I do not think that filework makes it weak a lot. It would be but with aggressive ornament. Also I know that it would be weak with time without filework. By the way you need to use well made knives and enjoy without worrying

You have a real talent Sergey. And it keeps getting better. I am very jealous my friend. If I could do that, I would very little else.
