I couple for fathers day

Post by muskrat man »

I recieved the Case 6165SAB in the mail in trade, had planned on keeping it for myself, until my dad seen it, he really took a liking to it, all except the saber grind, he's a big flatground fan. He went out for a while today so I snuck in some shop time to get a couple knives done for him as fathers day presents, I flatground the '65 and polished everything up (had planned on rehandling it, but I flashed it to him like it was and he loved it). The other is a schrade 194OT, it had been sharpened back pretty narrow, he loves a thin narrow blade, he got it in trade and I bought it off him, well it came back to him, only with a cleaned blade and some pinned bonestag. He loves them both.

Now I have to find ME another 165 ::shrug::

Look framiliar Dale? :D

Wow...Nice gifts for Dad, he's got one heck of a son.. :) I'm hoping he puts you up for adoption and I'm not picky at all with what kind of grind my knife has.. :mrgreen:

thanks all.

Yeah, I took the linerlock out to make the knife thinner, there are few things he likes in a pocket knife more than thin with flat grinds. I am working on a case 1970's grandaddy barlow with smooth bone stag, pretty stuff.
