I cobbled together a EDC toter

Post by Meridian_Mike »

I went out to my shop before all the nasty weather shut me down and dug out these parts and made me an EDC.
.
I THINK these parts were from 2 different knives maybe (??).
.
Anyway, it's 3-7/8" long and I put a turkish clip blade in it because I just thought it looked cool.
(maybe from a Muskrat....??)

Anyway..... here it is.....
Amber bone.

It's thin, since it only has the one blade....
It fits nicely in your pocket.
I sorta like it.

Thanks y'all....
These parts came out of my Schrade / Old Timer parts box.
The parts seem to sorta fit together. Maybe 8OT liners and spring.
I was fun. The blade stuck out a LOT when I pinned it together. Then, I adjusted the kick to get it down inside the liners.

Mike, you are abusing the English language by calling that cobbled. It looks great!

It looks good from here Mike! I like it. I always did like a Turkish clip blade!

Very nice creation Mike! I love it when spare parts come together like that. I'm sure it will make a great EDC and quickly become your good buddy. ::tu:: ::tu:: :D

It does look good. And great choice on those bones. That one will get even prettier with age and use!
