Good point :)

It looks good, however I have a question. Why the holster for the holster? Leather in leather, why not make it a single piece, or stitch it together?

Well if you have any blank blades you should use it to get the blade started :)

I've used it when I've had someone else use my blade and nick it or dull it.

He'll even from a blank blade template it takes 10 strokes to go from flat steel to a bladed edge and a handful more...

It's Ok. Shipping to UK is $25...considering how tight things are I just can't afford or justify it.

Things in England are dyer. No job, lack of food, using my bow to hunt for small game etc, fun times. Paying bills from Mrs Maternity pay, so yeah, keeping things tight.

Thanks for the kind words Deebo.

Here is the carving I did for my friend. Took 6 hours by hand.

Fair enough....what did you think then? Lol

How did she like it? :-)

Happy days :-) not bad shipping...4 days. Lol. I'm currently engraving one for my friends wedding. I'll post up the results when done. It's taken me ages as it's being done by hand.

The country has been on a downturn since Reagan left, and only Clinton managed to do something to fix it (or at least get the country out of the deficit). Under his watch the US grew back into an...

Just as an update, the first has been shipped and in the US currently (It passed customs as per my notifications from Royal Mail). Should be with Deebo by the end of the week / beginning of next week...

Pics to follow as I am currently at work.

Hmm...I wouldn't have thought there would be a VAT charge on something which could be seen as a "gift"? Its value isn't massive, so I don't know.

Ok...2 boards made. Need sanding but will do that tomorrow ready to ship tomorrow.

So you'll take one as well Deebo? No worries, will get that sorted for you also. I will see if I can get it sent through work as it may be cheaper on postage (no guarantee)

Well the difference really is in the colouring. Lol. It would take a while to go through to the centre. I've cleaved meat, sliced meat, chopped vegetables, scrapped and scratched from the slicing,...

Ok well I will flatten the bamboo when the kids are in bed. I get the centre pieces of wood from my neighbour so could be oak, ash, maple, birch, Elm, alder, yew, sycamore or hazel...depends on him...
