All About Pocket Knives

hi folks, first post. i have spent 5-6 hours on google, ebay etc. and i noticed the post below where the fellow had a steady for sale, but, is there some place that sells something that will work as a steady for a person that is just getting back in to working/playing w/ folding knives? any help would be apprediated................b

i think the best way is to have one made locally.

Here are a couple pictures of an easy rest I recently aquired. We just moved, so I didn't get these posted earlier.

This is made in 3 pieces so the top piece could become a traditional anvil just by making new top pieces to suit your needs and by bolting the bottom piece to a bench. The whole thing is held together by 2 allen head cap screws that are accessed from the bottom.

There are no patent numbers, nothing. So that means I can make some measurements and someone could build these, as well as to design a couple different top pieces to a more versitle shop tool.

sign me up for one HUKK

I can provide the measurements, someone else will have to make it, I don't have the tools to make them. If someone wants the demensions I will take the time to make a drawing.

that is great-----sign me up also---to look at the specs. thanks all for great answers................b

I would love to have the plans also.
Thanks Hukk!

I'd love some dimensions, maybe I can find a mahcine shop around here to make one or three

or four.........................b

here is one by ben kelley jr.

That's pretty close, at least the concept is the same. I have some time on Tuesday morning to make a few measurements. Only major difference I see is that the one I have is made in 3 pieces. This would allow different tops to be made and use the same base.

hey hukk, just an alternate set of plans, could be made in sections and welded together to save money. not that much machining required and could be altered to fit individual requirements.
