My Walker is due for a make over.

Today´s episode: Keyring nub removal.

The cutting part is easy, now for some filework. My old Champion will do.

In tomorrow´s episode: combo tool modding.

I started the filework on the combo tool, rounding the tip and removing the wire stripper. Nearly done!

Interesting. The intended function is not obvious to me  :think:

Should be obvious by now. After finishing the curve on the inside, I´ll give it a serrated edge. It´ll be crude but functional. Then voila my new rope cutter aka gutting blade.

I switched to small files just now so progress will be slow.

The blade near its final shape. Yet gotta do some fine work on the inner curve.

Next step is beveling. I won´t have any time till Wednesday, which is good because it gives me the opportunity to think it through a little bit. Not yet sure whether to do a bevel on one or both sides. I think a one sided bevel is best, leaving the nicked side as it is.

Did some preliminary work on the grind. I decided against beveling after all; I want to keep as much of the spine as possible.

aah, gotcha. You are making a smaller version of the 111mm hunter's serrated blade. A pint-sized slasher of sorts  :duel:

The modded combo tool now is sharp enough to cut paracord. Still needs some work though. BTW I´ll not be adding serrations.

Ronald, does it seem that the steel of the combo tool is properly hardened to use as a knife blade? I.e., do you think it will hold an edge?

Hi Nix, it´s too early to tell but I don´t think this blade has had the same hardening treatment as the standard blade.

I feel you.

84 is a spectacular size to carry.

I'm even considering modding a wallet to accommodate a my holy grail combo: swisscard + alox bantam.

That’s a perfect minimalist urban carry...
