QS, I use these polishing cloths. They work great for metal, wood with sealer, delrin, bone, stag, and really do good on tarnished brass.Quick Steel wrote: ↑Fri May 31, 2024 2:18 pm CCC,you did a superlative cleaning/restoration of your Western. Can you tell me what product did you use on the wooden handle?
redrider, now that's a knife!

Many thanks Kerry! This jewelry thing comes from my wife calling knives "Man Jewelry", since I get so many fixed blades that can be worn on the hip, across the chest, around the neck, and so on. So, it kinda stuck with me!toomanyknives wrote: ↑Thu Jun 06, 2024 2:43 amOK Tony, these are knives, not jewels.

Thanks Mark! Waiting was painful when younger, but being older I have found that patience brings much joy!Madmarco wrote: ↑Thu Jun 06, 2024 3:22 amNow that's what I call a SCORE!Corn Creek Cutlery wrote: ↑Thu Jun 06, 2024 1:23 am "Got me another one"

Good for you, buddy, I'm glad you found the one you wanted cuz sometime it's very hard to wait!
But patience usually pays-off, plus it's a virtue! lol!
Very nice, my friend, your copy appears to be Mint!

Thank you QS ... much appreciated !!Quick Steel wrote: ↑Thu Jun 06, 2024 1:42 pm Tony, Your Kershaw\Hattori is a wonderful combination of beauty and power. Congratulations on such a fine acquisition.

thanks for inspiring me to dig out some off my "tucked-away fixed blades" ... The dagger is made in Spain or Italy as I recall and the hunter with the black handle is made in Japan and is a heavy solid beast 
As I said before I really love Seki-City made blades 
and you can't too many of them... 
Which makes me wonder .... is the phrase; "Too many knives" a physically impossible occurrence in the Universe as we know it... ...

right back to ya! I really like the big Skinner, second one with stag ... who made it? Next, like the Japan made ... Beeeeasty indeed! That dagger looks like it could do some serious damage stabbing or slashing! Appears you have put very sharp edges on all of them!

now you are starting to make me nervous... I just started thinking about it...lately, I have been keeping the lights off and the shades drawn in my house ... staying in the dark and eating raw fish.... do you think I have anything to worry about? Thanks TopDog ... I couldn't find much info yet ... will keep digging. Found a new knife tunnel to explore now!GSPTOPDOG wrote: ↑Thu Jun 13, 2024 12:12 amCorn Creek Cutlery wrote: ↑Wed Jun 12, 2024 9:29 amI really like the big Skinner, second one with stag ... who made it?
The maker's name/mark is "Bully", made in Harly, NM and dated 1991.
I'll let you know when I get back from my vacation to Rivendell. I heard about a new knife store that opened there.. I feel there are deals to be had!!GSPTOPDOG wrote: ↑Thu Jun 13, 2024 12:21 amTMK....toomanyknives wrote: ↑Thu Jun 06, 2024 1:50 pmI know what you mean. I fight all the time to not become this guy!
