well I don´t know anything about the motor yet. all I know is that it has 3 hp and that the grinder maker knows what he is doing... 2thumbs so I have to wait until it gets here to check and then decided if I can /want use a step pulley wow Les you must really be pushing 2guns...

Well so looks like you only have to get used to it and then it works as good as a variable speed one... p.s like your website and knives!

Hey guys, Will get a bigger more powerful ( 3 hp) grinder soon :D Only problem... no variable speed So I was wondering to what grit you grind on full speed I´ll still have my smaller variable speed grinder right next to the bigger one so I´ll probably use the bigger one for profiling,rough...

Sandblasting would be the easiest and best way to remove it. But I don´t have any sandblasting equipment so I´m really glad that bleach works too AL

nope paint stripper doesn´t work on GunKote or similar coatings... I have tried LOL Have tried to remove it with Ferric chlorid,vinegar,... before didn´t work either So bleach is the only thing I know off yet that removes GunKote

SWEEt thanks for sharing !!!

Well well didn´t the ads say GunKote is durable and long lasting... Not really true Guess what I just figured out. I had this small knife I coated with GunKOte a while ago. Modified it on the weekend and to make the blade look darker I etched it Someone told me that I´d get an used look by...

great tutorial! a chainsaw file can also be used on hardened steel... great to fix plunge lines

yeah that´s true...like the look too well the female bolts from my MTB don´t look as cool as the male female has a slot drive now I have to find a matching female bolt... but looks like he really uses those chainring bolts BECAUSE I found some other ones online and there the male and female...

well looks like I found them. A dude from another forum told me that they might be chainring bolts On my way to the shop where my mountainbike is to check if he is right

Saw them on Firstborn knives yesterday and tried to find them online but no luck. :unsure: So does anyone know where I could get some. They look like this: Uploaded with ImageShack.us thx AL

awesome blade love the lanyard thingy..what a cool idea

well that´s a good idea. had some problems with the ricasso beeing not perfectly straight lately. especially when I don´t pay much attention while grinding. it´s no big deal when the ricasso is not that big but if I put one on like the ricasso on a Busse or Rangerknives I tend to have a...

Was just wondering how you guys straighten out the ricasso if it´s not perfectly straight? do you use a finer belt or do you start with a rougher one ? do you use a jig? Thx AL

THANKS guys..I´ll try to get some paint and try it. I have used spray glue before but that gives you more a Kikuknives like finish: http://www.feines-werkzeug.de/images/product_images/popup_images/1527_0.jpg I also like the plastic bag idea..will give it a shot

hey dogs, I etch or coat most of my knives Kind of like the look of an etched or coated blade (and it helps to hide scratches :eek: ) Anyway I saw this etch the other day and was wondering how it´s done. Well I know that first of all to get the blade gray you have to etch it...

Such a poster is a really good idea. I´ll make one too LOL I think it also depends on the belts. I ´m testing some new ones with some sort of ceramic corn. They feel pretty dull but on high speed they eat away metal like no tomorrow. On low speed they suck I´m not only cheap when it comes to...

cool thread...how do you dull the edges of your belt? scrap metal, a file...? one thing that helps alot... use fresh belts dull belts can **** everything up easily I know because I´m a cheap ******* who uses belts til they almost fall apart :running dog:

GREAT looking knife ...and that´s your first knife 2thumbs

THX I´m into lanyards too So I´ll make a nice leather one as soon as it´s HT
