Hello from Stew !!
on: January 09, 2013, 12:27:08 PM
 Hi :D

My name is stew and I finally got round to joining after mention on British Blades about this thread:
http://forum.multitool.org/index.php/topic,34772.0.html?PHPSESSID=3gn6ku1fcqfssbgs3cejovoq81

Awesome stuff and it had me intrigued as to how it was done with torx construction as I like to tinker a bit too.  ;)

I'm a hobbyist knifemaker and the SAK stuff that's worth a mention is an Alox swap to green micarta....

http://stewartjlight-knives.blogspot.co.uk/2011/03/new-handle-for-alox-sak-in-green.html

and making a SAK knifeless...

http://stewartjlight-knives.blogspot.co.uk/2011/01/customising-swiss-army-knife-so-that-it.html

Neither are in the league of some of the stuff here though!

Looking forward to participating. :)
Cheers,
Stew.

Welcome!

They're just torx screws. I made fresh liners out of titanium for them to tap into as i hadn't considered drilling out all the pivots to fit barrel pins - that would have been a bit more work but a better idea.
Cheers,
Stew.

I've had the same problem... mine was solved by a homoeopathic approach rather than pharmaceutical.

Eventually the forum that loves you the most makes you a mod, then you have much less time to go and play in the others! ;)
