    Hey, Glen is my friend and I just know he's probably getting that knife to surprise me for my birthday, so to save time just go ahead and ship it direct to me.

      I'm sure Facebook will tell me when your birthday is, but until then, I will continue to LOL (literally) at that comment.

        Sheaths all ready for sewing now with 7 different sizes for standard right handed carry, a lefty and a horiznotal carry. There is another horizontal carry cut out but the guy it is for wants a darker sheath to will get the die in a day or two.



        There is seven that have been stitched so getting through them slowly.

          I was asked on another forum how I make the stitching holes and sew up the sheaths so I did a couple of short videos for them

                All the emails have gone out to the guys who have ordered knives in this batch so next week should see them all on the way to places far and near

                This is the line-up and while there are a few the same and similarities in them all having rimu scales there are other differences that individualise them

                      Sorry John, but it looks like it's coming to my address. Let me test it out and we'll see where it goes.

                          They look great Garry. Mine takes me back a lot of years to when I was earning pocket money in my college days by butchering cattle. We carried a wide blade skinner and a boner like that one on the kill floor. The boner actually handled more of the work than the skinner did.

                            Yes, once the skin is off the boner does a great proportion of the work dressing and breaking down animals for me as well.

                                With most of the group buy knives paid for and in the post I was able to start looking at the safari knife again.
                                When I built the grinder, I made an adjustable jig to do the main bevel on the various sized knives, but for the safari knife I decided to make a fixed jig for the accuracy from knife to knife for the scandi grind they will have.
                                A piece of some resin type compound made a suitable base after I ground a 13 degree bevel on it so the piece of angle aluminium could be screwed in place. A channel was cut down the face so one side of the carbide faced file jig would accurately locate the blade to be clamped in place for grinding and a couple of bolts threaded into the base will be the handles to guide the jig on the tool rest of the grinder.
