Poor little Freestyle

[Neil]

[Benner]

What's the plan with that one then?

[Spork, Lord of Lime Jello!]

Are you going to polish it up and make it really shiny?   

[MultiMat]

I am a little concerned for the freestyle as Neil has not allowed the bees to oversee proceedings.
Neil I hope you are not breaching any 'Geneva Convention' protocols in your experimenting on that little tool     

[Neil]

I'm pulling the blade.  I like the blade but it makes it illegal for UK edc.  So its being converted into just a nice pocket sized pair of pliers.  I'm just trying to decide if I should make some scales for it to tart it up a bit or not 

[Spork, Lord of Lime Jello!]

Too bad there's no alternative tool you could put in it's place...like a saw blade or bit holder.

[MultiMat]

Neil is it blade length or blade locking that makes it illegal  .
Would it be possible/practical too make the blade non locking & usable at the same time

[Benner]

We need a UK blade law definition smilie. 

Legal EDC knives (without good reason) in the UK have to have a cutting edge sub 3" and be non locking.

[cgk]

At least throw a file or something in there.

[Neil]

Unfortunately it can't be converted into a slippie   No good putting a saw there as it would fall foul of the same law.  About the only thing I could think to put there would be some kind of pry tool 

I seriously considerd a file but really don't fancy trying to cut that hardness of steel to size

[thermox]

Might be possible to grind a file to size, using a standard benchtop machine. Lots of dust though!

[Shane769]

Just put the file in a vise with what you want to keep in the vise, and the extra out the top. Keep a little extra extra too, just in case. Then bend it till it snaps. Works for me. Grind down the ugly fracture line, and you are in business

We've got one...

 

 

[AHB]

I like the idea...
I'll keep my eyes on this thread... 

[DaveK]

Can I have the blade? 

I'll find something in return of course!

I was considering using it to make a OH slippie as they're nice enough blades.  If I don't you can have first refusal

No that's this one

[Spork, Lord of Lime Jello!]

I wonder if the blade could be made easily removable...like the Buck Selector. Then you could swap it with something else for carry about town...like a mustache comb

You could go back to the Flair for inspiration and make a one hand opening olive fork (just to be contrary).

Mad enough to be tempting but perhaps not

[revolvergeek]

Think of all the pun potential it would introduce into the conversation every time you used it! 

[Neil]

Frankly its a bit too high faluting for round these parts.

   Perhaps a chip shop fork 

[Spork, Lord of Lime Jello!]

Maybe a spork?

[Neil]

With a really shiny bowl?

[Spork, Lord of Lime Jello!]

With a really shiny bowl?

...if you insist...
