I think a standard black paisley bandanna would look killer as a micarta piece!! be sure and post if you make it.
good to see you to JAC.

hola everybody, Heres some homemade micarta I did. . It's made from an old red t-shirt and odds and ends. the blue in it are bits of other cloth. It isnt ground at all yet,so I dont know what it will look like when it's polished not sure if I like it,..but thought i'd give it a whirl. I got the idea...

Ive taken the ring out and looked closer with a loop,indeed it is made this way and the hole is NOT drilled as I thought.(see pic) ,hopefully you can see. Bill there are pins on the back of the scales . Due to my crappy photography with a webcam you couldnt see them before. The bottom one is flush t...

the lock doesnt appear to have been altered,it looks factory under a loop. No grind marks,or any sign of being cut down. That's one of the things that puzzles me,Ive never seen a lock like this. Apparently, it is 'picked' from the end of the lock,not the side. the hole drilled through the lock was d...

Hey guys, this knife has been sharpened,modfyed and has a hair trigger button. but I'm trying to find out who made it. If that is possible. I figure it's 50's. It is 7"OAL,nickle-silver bolsters and buttons,full brass liners,dark horn, tang stamp reads.."made in italy" over "INOXID". no other name o...

Hey guys, I traded some stuff for this knife at my last gun show. I cant find the maker name anywhere. "GIBB" I bet Ive searched 200 times. Anyway it is cable damascus and has a "bear jaw" handle. A bby bear I'm assuming. Has anybody seen this makers mark? Who made this knife? how old is it? how muc...

thanks everybody, Thaddeus..I got the skulls from a ring..it was a 'circle of skulls', that formed a ring. I just cut them off when I need them. any goth shop should have sterling skull rings. this was about 8 little skulls. I dont know why I bought that ring two years ago. Perhaps for this very pro...

Hey guys, Heres a mikov i'm attempting to build. white micarta and sterling silver chain and skulls. still need to peen pins,epoxy and grind the scales down. and other stuff pardon the crummy pics. later,Perry http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g217/ironworker1/PHOTO4-1.jpg http://i57.photobucket.com...

Are those swinguards jindiana's..Natch? Also I really like that swirly scaled stiletto. what size are those 3? 5 1/2" or 6 1/2" ? I too am interested in the prices of the knives. The reason I asked about them being jindiana is I have this one that is a jindiana and it looks similar..cept for the spr...

Linder doesnt sell German knives anymore? Who makes the ones they sell..Vagrant? Do you know? I saw two different 'Linder" knives(autos) on ebay the other day. 'buy it now' for about $30 or so. I simply typed in..'German knife' and they showed up. In case anybody wants to take a look at them. The de...

Ive seen the all metal one 'for sale', on an antique site..on the web..in the last week or so. It wasnt a knife site I dont think. I remember thinking.."I hadnt seen one before" when I ran across it. I dont remember what site it was now though. I think they wanted $80 for it. Geez..now it's gonna bu...

I just received a package containing a neat wood scaled 8" leverlock with the Kissing Crane logo on the blade and a dark horn Medici to replace one sent earlier that had problems. Has sent the replacement gratis. :D Prompt too! Took only 11 business days.... Hey Natch..how is the medici? Is it one ...

Yes Vagrant..how true. The last time I tried to order from abroad was 3 years ago or so...perhaps my luck has changed. However,still a bit gun shy after those 3 orders. Lost about of $450 on those orders if memory serves. And they were from 3 different outfits to boot!!..go figure. I didnt try to re...

I'm never heard of this guy 'Has',so I dont know what his shipping methods are. I ordered 3 times in the last 5 years from overseas,never got one knife. I figure 3 strikes and your out. So I quit ordering from out country a long time ago. cant afford to lose more money.

I was an ebay coin dealer from 1998 till 2000. If something happend and I couldnt ship when i told the customer i would,I made damned sure to contact him and tell him why! When it comes to peoples money,you dont play around! This not only hurts confidence,but also new customers through word of mouth...
