Mak! Thank you for the pictures!
Look at you, handsome young man!
Great design on that blade!
You always have such fantastic items to show!
You spend a lot of time & effort to take pictures & post them...
I appreciate your hard work sharing the pictures!
Things I'd never see here in Canada...
Thanks again!!
Best wishes to you & yours!!

Both Great Mak!
Interesting to me seeing the different guard between Russia & North America...
Maybe because I'm Ukranian I like the Russian style!
Those are interesting fillers... And nice wood on the handle!

The Gerber is nice, looks like a good sheath!
I was surprised to learn that some of those Gerbers were made with the handle at bit of an angle to the blade.

I only have 50 or so knives... I'm sure you have many of them.
I have been lazy in learning how to post pics consistently...
But I will get some.

One of my favourites is the Spivey Sabertooth. Jefferson Spivey rode a horse across the US in the 60's to promote
riding & recreation trails, along the way he designed his knife, the Spivey Sabertooth.
He sells them on his website, along with the book he wrote about the trip.
He's a very interesting guy... He used to teach handgun tricks shooting in Hollywood!

W Randall taught J Spivey how to heat treat the steel blades.
I think you would like to see them.
Thanks again for the pics...
have a great weekend Makandr!

I also Ukrainian from Russia .... as to Spivey Sabertooth .... with a hole under the finger you can lose it.
 
Small world eh Makandr?!?!
Both of us with Ukrainian ancestry...
But alas;
I forgot almost everything my baba taught me...
I'm very sad, my parents & grandparents are all dead.
I was only 6 when my Grandpa passed away at 49, same age as me now...

I know my Grandparents on both sides lived in Northern Alberta, and were farmers.
They never talked much about the past, and I was too foolish not to have asked more.
I don't even know where their family & ancestors lived.

Maybe someday I will use one of those family tree sites. Someday.
There are some relatives that I wish not to see ever, so that is part of my hesitation.

I just love that Sabertooth knife!
I carry it more than any other fixed blade I own...

I bought several (5) from mr Jefferson Spivey, and gave them to my "brothers" my true friends that have helped me, and I know will always help me with anything.

I even bought myself an extra, that is untouched in the safe, (just in case I lose mine, I have another!) And a spare sheath. I may try my hand at putting a Randall style pouch & an extra retaining strap around the handle... Just for piece of mind when I'm riding my Harley...
Jefferson Spivey is a very nice guy! We email a bit, and chat on the phone at times...
He really is an interesting guy...

Well Makandr, I will talk to you later!
Randy
 
Good Morning Mak!
Nice Bowie knife!
The skull head dagger s mean lookin!
That other knife with the coloured grips makes me dizzy lol!

Looks fun!
Medieval sword play, & Jousting! Some pretty ladies all dressed up!
Please tell me you are not jousting Mak, not at our age, lol!!
Take it easy Mak!
Thanks for the pics!

No, I'm not a knight, I prefer the shotgun.
With colored handle - manufactured in prison.
 
Hello Makandr!
Yeah, I like shotguns too...
Maybe a modern knight...? Haha...

That is amazing, even more so from a prison!
Much nicer than the usual razor blade melted into a toothbrush....
Have a great day!

I made this one out of CPM-10V. It was a SOB to grind, but I really like this steel. It's one of the better steels I've used for a tactical knife because it holds an edge for a LONG time and is surprisingly tough--seems close(ish) to D2 in that regard. Anyway, the blade is 4.5" and has been Caswell oxide coated. The handle is CF over OD/black G10 liners.
