I can't see it. Tried and it told me invalid attachment.
That's an amazing pair. How long is the smaller one?

Hopefully both but will be a bit. I really want to hammer it out instead of stock removal which means i have to get a forge together. Ive been working on shop tools lately. Ill probably do a model cardboard one first like I did with the micro folder. Will definitely be a challenge with the curves but what aint?I'd like to see that. Can we expect a sketch or a finished product?

Also, I'd like to direct some attention to this one:
It is well known as a utility knife but it has amazing stabbing ability.
Most real life knife fights are one sided, and even then the knives used are kitchen cutlery or cheap no-name folders.
The Glock knife costs around the same as a decent kitchen knife or low end acceptable folder.
Thus I propose this knife to be one one of the best fighting knives... if knife fighters knew about them...
Thanks Kronck!JWB, that ginunting set is gorgeous! -if i could afford it, i might order one!
is that a japanese-style ito paracord wrap on the scabbards? as a suggestion, for perfection, the scabbards IMHO would traditionally be wrapped in rattan strips (or more modernly - desert paracord minus the inner guts, for durability) in a spiral wrap or turks heads.
here's one of mine i just repaired in rattan: (the dark brown one was the last original rattan turks head.

as i received it, someone had tarted it up with crinkled brass bands which had to go.

next job is to re-wrap the grip after removing the current leather thong wrap, which, tho nicely done, is also not traditional - leather rots quickly in the jungle.
(another 'knife' i'd happily bring to a gun fight - along with an m-16 of course, over 100 yrs old & still you can shave with it.)
p.s. - recently found out the grip fittings, the baca-baca blade clamps, and the separate blade guard itself (ganja) are all silver (Ag), along with the laminated steel blade, a rare beasty.
