An old Rapala (Marttiini) fillet knife
Started by Kevin D Sep 21. 0 Replies 2 Likes
I found this old fillet knife literally in pieces.The blade was bent. The tang was warped. The handle was too small (in my opinion). And the mechanical connection of the tang behind the handle was destroyed. The edge being useless was an obvious…Continue

The rebuild on the Barndoor is complete. Blond Buffalo seemed the right choice

That ironwood is beautiful! Great Job!

Donnie's newest project. He will make a pattern of this before putting it back together. This is actually the only celluloid we ever had gas off, may as well put some new handles on it since we caught it early

Oops, I forgot to type words. :)
Spyderco Dragonfly 2 handle with ironwood scales and birch backspacer. I think I'll carry this for a while. It works really well. Perfectly in fact. Even if a knife looks nice I hate carrying it if it has a performance problem. This one opens/closes great. Lockup is solid and when it closes it has a lot of pop to it and more than enough springiness holding it closed.
