That empty shield was just begging for an initial. Unfortunately I never engraved anything before nor had a tool to do so. So I took a very small file, researched the cutting angles of an engraving tool and made my own tool out of that file. I then found an old font style from the late 1800’s and sketched it on the shield with a very sharp pencil. Short story long if you zoom in you might see that it is a stylized “F”.
Wow...very nice job on the self engraving!!!

Thanks, Doc B! Carrying something different today
This is a slightly modified Chinese Marbles. It’s one of my beaters. I modified the lock to be smaller and more comfortable, clipped the point a little more and took the swing guards off so I can choke up on it and put my thumb on the spine.

Thanks for the help. Quite the dressed up F. Must say though, you did a great job for your first, and made the tool itself too. Hmmmmm, talent, ability, ingenuity and execution plus. A+ on that project.

Trying to stay cool. 93° outside, feels like 103°. Supposed to be even hotter tomorrow. Chillin' (more like sweating it out) with this.
I couldn't imagine days like this out on the frontier back before AC.

NWN, Looks to me like some mating has already taken place. I'm not familiar with Kingston. Do you think Ulster might have made yours for Kingston?

garddogg56, believe me I know. Living in California, it's dangerous to leave reality. So let me introduce you to the two EDC's that occupy my pockets ALL the time, Mr. Benchmade and Mr. SOG.

Hey Quick Steel, I have no idea if Ulster made my Kingston.
Here is an interesting forum pertaining to Kingston, USA knives.
Maybe your answer is there.
