any knife collectors in the area ? I am into Striders , Blackwoods , Carsons , Rinaldi's , Simonichs and Burkes. For the past year or so I have been making my own fixed blades , primarily from O1 , 1095 or S30V. Have a small shop set up with a Bader3 grinder , couple drill presses , couple blast cabinets , leather working area , metal cutting bandsaw , chop saw. any other knife nutz in the Vegas area ? on of the last blade/sheath combos I finished up : http://members.cox.net/wylie_knives/Grimmace%20in%201095.jpg been doing a bit more leather work thru the heat of summer. http://members.cox.net/wylie_knives/group%20leather.jpg |

I still need to make you one dont I ? I will have to put that on my "soon" to do list....   I used a piece of 3/16 Carbon Fiber to mount the pouches to and then bolted it all to a large Tec-lock. I was working on another one the hold 3 with the 3rd one on standoff's in between these 2... just need time to finish it. |

Good to see ya over here from CKGF... I can't go on there often because I get so damn jealous. Only reason I signed up there was to join Trace's forum... maybe get on his waiting list... Been looking for over a year and still don't have a Rinaldi yet. Nice collection by the way. |
