Rescaled 13"ers, and two scratch builds.

Post by mocha »

You probably won't see many of these around. First photo, 4 13" Modern Italians that I rescaled, Purple, and white Pearl, Candy Stripe, Black Pearl, and Imitation Tortoise Shell. The next photo has a 17" square button, coil spring, ring pull with elephant Ivory that I made completely from scratch in the background, and to the side is a prototype 20" OTF with 1/4" thick Tanto tip blade which is fully operational, I'm just working on the cosmetics. I want to do a Samurai sword handle wrap on the handle, you can see the stingray skin already applied. This is way too big to pocket carry, and will have a lanyard to hang from a belt like a Star Wars Lightsaber, it is completely made from scratch too.

Anyway we can get a video of the tanto?

Hello dark2023, I'll try to post a video of the 20"OTF in action, I'll have to get my son to help me with that. Here is another photo of a 17" scratch built with a fulcrum release, and Brazilian horn handles so big I had to splice them together. It also had a kriss blade, too bad I sold that one.
