  • I've wanted to do this too!

    How far apart are they spaced? And roughly how many mm's do you reckon is in-between the magnet and the wood?

    I'm not sure on spacing, maybe 50mm between centres I need to lay out a bunch of knives and experiment. The depth needs to be as close as you dare, 2-3mm from the face if possible, I'll use the depth stop on my pillar drill to get cute.

    @edmundro really nice utility belt, are you a tree surgeon?

  • Yup, coming up on 10 years of wood-butchery. It kinda sucks and the pay is shit but beats working indoors.
    I've had plenty of different Silkys over the years but the Gom is def my favourite. Have a wooden scabbard version somewhere which is much thinner with finer teeth towards the tip, bit flimsy tho. Bag is an older Freitag that fits most of my kit except the long rope and leg irons.
    The little orange thing tied to the scabbard on the right is one of these it's there just in case I ever need to slice a rope in an emergency.
    The red handled saw on the left is a hardened version with beefier teeth for dead wood/ivy/roots/other manky jobs.
