I don't think they have jails anymore. They just make people promise not to do it again.

Re: 10.5 inch swinguard

What size would you recommend for the stamp width. I also used jerry sizemores recipe for tempering the spring. he said to temper it at 600 so i tried that and it kick pretty hard.

Re: 10.5 inch swinguard

Looks great. A lot of my early ones have that second backspring pin hole on the liner where I realized I was too close to the egde,

And have you gotten a stamp yet?

Re: Cruella Deville Razor

I haven't done a lot of inlays (probably only 4-5 times) but they can look really good.

Lol, that one is a FB I made scales for. Here is the cheap Asian knife that was either the knife used in the game or based on the knife from the game.

Re: Cruella Deville Razor

People want to have stuff like their favorite characters had. Since around Feb I have had three people ask if I could make wood scales with very specific IMOP inlays for a stiletto.

A long time ago I got a really cheap knife that I realized was a copy of that Z2000. I liked how it looked so I ...
