Let's Talk Knives

The Buck Custom Shop came thru again.

 

Haven't been in here in awhile.

 

Mark gets nothing but the best!

 

What did you have them do for you? That’s a fine looking knife, a few more pictures would be nice!

 

Do you remember my directions for freshening the pattern?

 

yes sir.
Still have the original papers I printed.

 

S35v blade and OD Green anodized body followed by a black pocket clip. You can configure about 8-10 knives in just about anything you want on Buck's webpage.

 

My favorite Spyderco. Shaman in micarta and M4 steel. I've done some mild mods knocking down sharp edges along the spine, the jimping and on the Spydey-hole.

 

That is possibly one of the best looking Spydercos I’ve seen.

 

I've bought and sold a few... PM2, Salt, Delica... . This is definitely a nice knife. The ergos are some of the best in the business. Very solid, runs on phosphor bronze washers, yet the action is almost as good as bearings. The blade has heft at the spine, but really tall flat grind in 3.5" of cutting edge. I'm not a huge fan of the compression lock, but this one is as good as I have tried. If you like 4 oz. full size folders, then this is a good option.

 

Half Face Blades
Crow Jr. Polished finish, Copper Camo Carbon Fiber

 

I’ve been working on a set and each one has different file work…

 

Beautiful!

 

Awesome Ray. Somebody is getting a great set.

 

I’ve already had the knife bug again you guys are not helping my wallet!

 

Stick around, in a few weeks, you might be surprised where these show up…

 

Shhhhh

 

I'll buy a beer for almost anyone.... even some lawyers

 

I don't leave home without.

 

Ran across this axe cleaning up my tool shed last weekend. Hell yes! I honestly don't know how this came to be in my tool collection???. That may seem weird to some, but we all get there eventually. The branding is Collins and don't know much about them. But, glad that I found it. It was dull, chipped blade, dirty, rusty and dry handled, so gave it a bath and some love today. 26" handle. I wish I had a grinder, but went at it with a flat bastard, then honing stones, some mineral oil on the steel and linseed oil on the maple. Ready for yard work, camping or come what may. I'll let the linseed dry for a day or two, then going in the Tundra.

 

Good size to keep in the truck.

 

That’s just like grabbing a jacket out of the closet that you haven’t worn in months and sticking your hand in the pocket to find a $100.00 bill!

 

I was gifted this knife a couple weeks ago. Didn’t know too much about it at the time, it’s a zac brown southern grind spider monkey.Even with titanium locker and liner the full copper scales make this a bit on the heavy side for my liking, sure is a looker though

 

I’m curious if that knife wasn’t made while Zac still owned the company?
It’s definitely a cool looking knife.

 

That’s a collector, right there. What does he call that model?

 

I’m not sure on the history of the brand other than it was sold off not too long ago, as far as I am told my buddy has had this knife for quite sometime and kind of forgot he had it so just decided to give it to me.I wasn’t aware it was that zac brown until recently, the knife seems well made but I wouldn’t pay what they are asking on there website for it, much prefer flipper style knifes. I’ve become a bit spoiled with my zt’s and their buttery smooth deployment
