Looks like a good peening job to me Steve. Did the metal seem to bend less as you hit it? Maybe it was work hardening?

tattoosteve99 · **Reply #1921 on:** February 04, 2012, 09:33:30 PM

Its possible it was. Its hard stuff to start with almost 70% nickel

Sidhartha · **Reply #1922 on:** February 04, 2012, 10:59:10 PM

hi steve you can try heating the end of the pins to make them softer, good work!

tattoosteve99 · **Reply #1923 on:** February 04, 2012, 11:38:34 PM

Heating this type of special metal does just the opposite. I tried it before once.

I missed my pliers too much with the CT28. I made a CT31. Before, after and comparing it to a CT29 and CT34. I use my pliers all the time to pull off stickers on the test equipment I calibrate. Pliers are easier than using my fingernail.

That looks like a great mod. The 28 appeals to me more though, might have to try that one. I wish Vic did more models with the combo tool instaid of the small blade. Where did you get the 91mm combo, out of a Compact?

Beautiful work! Do you use a pin spinner on the rivet heads?

Sidhartha · **Reply #1931 on:** February 06, 2012, 05:48:01 AM

Sidhartha · **Reply #1934 on:** February 07, 2012, 02:28:28 AM

thanks to all, this weekend was very productive i finished this too

bull horn scales and file work hunstman, i really like the colours of these scales, the funny thing is that you dont know what the knife is going to look until the end polishing process.

MadPlumbarian · **Reply #1935 on:** February 07, 2012, 02:44:20 AM

Amazing work, that spine detail on the main blade is just BEAUTIFUL!

I'm making a red Pioneer with pliers for my EDC as soon as I can track down red scales. I'll call it the Alox Mechanic because I just like saying Alox Mechanic. Are you using 2 saw springs for the pliers? They work perfectly with no modification.

Rahmed · **Reply #1945 on:** February 08, 2012, 09:16:05 PM

Wow! What a SAKstorm

Something new... finally

MadPlumbarian · **Reply #1946 on:** February 08, 2012, 09:22:21 PM

Rahmed · **Reply #1948 on:** February 08, 2012, 10:04:32 PM

NICE

Can't wait to get my hands on them

And about the patience : usually I'm not patient at all, but hey, craftsmanship takes time

Seems we've got some things to settle, then, Rahmed
