Custom SAK. Mainly hand tools
on: September 27, 2020, 11:42:18 AM
So, this is the custom pioneer I finished yesterday.  3mm brass scales, hand tapped brass pivots, half stop added to the main blade.  Made with a hacksaw, a file, a drill, a tap and some sandpaper.

Far from perfect, but the next one will be better!

Thanks all.  :)

I think a drill press should be my next purchase- getting the holes exactly right with a handheld drill is not easy.

I despite many years of using drills for work still can’t drill a straight hole.In fact the more I concentrate the more of an angle I tend to drill.

So I have to take my hat off to you  :hatsoff: that is a great job you have done there.
My trouble is i never show initiative, but that's only because no one has told me to.

Ha!  That is reassuring to know.  I know what you mean about the more you concentrate. :)

Can't wait to see the next one (although I can't imagine how you'll make it better...).

#2 is well on the way.  Just needs a lot of sanding  :)
