At 8:06 on May 20, 2009, Greg Vangsness said…: Thanks for taking the interest J.J. The mods are not major, more to do with the shaping of the large blade to allow for 'scooping' and the mid sized blade is rounded of along the back of the blade. I plan to show it and my first effort when I can find time and some good natural light :) probably not for about two weeks unless the excitement of it all gets the better of me. We have our District Convention of Synod and Pastor's Conference coming up with loads of prep to be made. Cheers, and yiC, Greg.

So I am working on a video for iKC and I was wondering if I could use your pictures of the old timer peanut? As a photographer I would never use it with out asking. Also wondering if Luke the drifter would like to be in it?
Thanks
Ally

At 15:26 on May 14, 2009, Anthony (ChanceToFade) said…: Do you glue the two halves back together? I tried to look for a video tutorial or at least a picture tutorial but I couldn't find one...

Cyanide...Yeah that stuff ain't good for ya

At 11:48 on May 14, 2009, Anthony (ChanceToFade) said…: When you start carving at the peach pit, do you remove the inner seed, or just leave it there?

At 19:56 on May 13, 2009, Wayne Revis said…: Came across a handmade ROW3 large pocket knife. 12 cm folded and 9 cm straight point blade, brass bolsters, and stag sides and very nice. Either Rowe with backwards E or Row3. Only marks on knife are 1988 and Row3. I can find nothing. If you have seen one please tell me where.

At 18:21 on May 13, 2009, Anthony (ChanceToFade) said…: Thanks for the inspiration! The store was empty but they should have some big ones in soon

At 15:53 on May 12, 2009, Antonios Kekalos said…: Are you kidding...we don't have any 5 star diners here that serve that kind of quality cuisine!

At 7:33 on May 12, 2009, Anthony (ChanceToFade) said…: Ok. I've have my share of bloodshed over these 10 years...

I actually cut myself so deep with a razor blade it got embedded into the bone.

At 6:38 on May 12, 2009, Anthony (ChanceToFade) said…: Thanks for the link, I got a couple peaches the other day. If I carve one worth seeing, I'll show it to you!

At 16:26 on May 11, 2009, Anthony (ChanceToFade) said…: Looks cool, I'm gonna try it next time I buy a dozen peaches!

At 7:50 on May 11, 2009, Anthony (ChanceToFade) said…: Wow, those are pretty cool. How long does each take to make?

At 6:31 on May 11, 2009, Anthony (ChanceToFade) said…: Those are pretty cool! Do you put a finish on them?

At 1:46 on May 11, 2009, Relly Carpio said…: Thank you for the welcome sir. Glad to be here.
