Hi from the UK
on: August 17, 2013, 11:49:27 PM
Hello,

Just joined from the UK. I've kind of caught the SAK bug a bit recently and am looking to make/mod something a bit unique. Not new to SAKs though - I still have the first one I was given on my tenth (ish) birthday and my grey hairs suggest that was a little while ago  ;).

I was directed here from a fellow on BritishBlades (and recognise some of the names on here already - Hi to Nuphoria who mods these threads  :tu:).

From what I have seen already, this is the place to be.

Best wishes

kawasemi

Welcome to the best place on the internet, Kawasemi :salute:


So, what was that first SAK? Any pics? We don't have this one for nothing: ;)

'Ow do my friend. Good to be here - I'm drifting away from general knife collecting a bit at the moment...apart from an interest in SAK modding of course  ;)

Plenty of inspiration here for SAK modding ;)
