Re: Jeff's MaxiMikov
Fantastic work! It looks solid and heavy enough to be a bat let alone a knife.
Re: Jeff's MaxiMikov
Simply unbelievable!! This is absolutely my new favorite Mikov. Both my first and second favorites are owned by Jeff. Great idea and great job Bill!! WOW!!

Re: Jeff's MaxiMikov
great job bill it truly is unique, what makes me laff is the thought of some collectors finding that knife while hundreds of others spend years... even decades trying to find another for there own collections with thousands of discussions over how many mikov may have produced. lol

Very, very nice. What a great piece!
Some folks call it a sling blade, I call it a Kaiser blade.
Re: Jeff's MaxiMikov
Simply an amazing knife! Congrats Jeff on the "Super-Mikov",every possible detail has been well thought out....what is that-a 10 guage shell puller?

Re: Jeff's MaxiMikov
Dude that is awsome, I especially like the reversed lever! 8 and 10 ga, that's just awsome.

Re: Jeff's MaxiMikov
WOW! That may very well be the finest Mikov I've ever seen!
Beautiful job,

Re: Jeff's MaxiMikov
Guys I sent Bill a laughable attempt at drawing an idea I had and I'm really shocked with the great added features on this one. I am also still in shock that it looks identical to what I had in mind in the picture I tried to draw.
The brass liners are so nice looking and I think he was looking at dimentions of 08 and 10 guage shells before he did this knife.

Re: Jeff's MaxiMikov
I wasn't able to make it as thick as you wanted, because of the sear mechanism.
Your drawing was not bad, BTW. The lever hole was added because it looked like the Japanese leverlocks without it.

Re: Jeff's MaxiMikov
I like the lever much, much better the way you did it and the thickness of the ns bolsters on the brass is really cool looking.
