Once again, Beautiful work Bruce! An orange sheath would be an awesome choice for that knife, it would really set off the wood. Maybe if you could silk line the Kydex? Just kidding of course. : )
That is absolutely awesome job. seriously. See to get one like that would cost me a bloody fortune. But I can have as much fun with the standard issue model. The Field Knife I have at home would look beautiful done like that. That's got to have a leather sheath with the polish on the handles, asthstetically let alone functionality. That is one hell of a mirror polish and one hell of a knife. He will like it. I can imagine now.:) Is it Snakewood because of the pattern on the back?
@johnwoodz1220 I really am not sure I think ironwood but I would defer to someone who knows wood better. I have had those scales for many years and never used them for some reason.
@RDPproject I sand down to 2500 and then hit it lightly, (very lightly) on the buffer if you try to do too much buffing on stainless it wants to pull the steel we call it orange peel. If that happens the only way to fix it is back to the sandpaper.
@Nebulax123 Goes like paint sprayed on an Car. If it is sprayed properly then you buff it(the car).Hmm. Interesting. I've seen knives with such a finish on them.
Looks excellent. The taper and drop to the blade looks perfectly good on this video. With the n690 edge retention and thrive design he is going to love it. That mirror polish will make it glide through meat like its not even there.
Outstanding Bruce! Look as if its been dipped in unobtainium. Wako will be carving up venison like butter I would imagine. A blade like that deserves a nice sheath for sure. Can't wait to see what you come up with in leather. Cheers
@traderjoes if you watch the reflections in the polish you can see everything is distorted from the curvature. if it was flat you'd get a clean return on the images.
Awesome job, fantastic look, perfect finish.

Beautiful polish, Bruce. It sure makes the handle and liners pop. Very nice! Wako should be super happy with that.

a truely beautiful knife
i'm sure you put a lot of time into getting this stunning result
i love the liner colour you chose to match with the superb wooden scales
kudos to both you and kiley
wako should be more than happy with this but in the end it probably depends on how well it dresses his deers and how long it stays sharp
i look forward to seeing wako use and review this knife
i wish the 3 of you continue to post great videos here for a long time to come

Bruce, is it still convexed? Is it an illusion or does the sides of the blade seem fairly flat? JUst curious!
traderjoes 1 month ago
@traderjoes Yes it still has the convex that Kyley ground into it. I think it is the polish that makes it look flat.
