Knife porn thread

No, it's street legal AFAIK...

I carried it around in London for ages... Ryan chipped the blade the week I got it, I was furious... Ask Horatio... 😂

I have a similar model - it is nowhere near the legal limit for blade length

Nae bother buddy

I like the look of WE knives. But they're a no go here.

3 inches?

70mm ish so 2 3/4"

I haven’t seen a Swiss Army knife with a blade length in that range. What’s the model?

The Alox range.

Three UK EDC legal knives. The bottom one is the one I keep in my jeans pocket. I like the Boker (top) and Spyderco but in spite of their legality I worry that they would scare people in an urban environment.

Arrived safely today

That’s valentines sorted, two years ago was a gransfors bruks splitting axe, Xmas was the pocket knife and some other Niwaki bits (sickle, secateurs and snips). I just hope my partner never gets any stabby stabby inclinations or I’ll be injured by a gift I gave her.

👍

I probably (definitely) shouldn't use this as a paperweight, but I do. Believe it's WWII, inherited from Dad.

Is that not private information?

Nope, just the accountant trying to sell me insurance against tax investigations.

Ha ha I know where you live....be cool to have the de activated weapon to go with it. They do seem to pop up while magnet fishing.

No machete?!?

Or the curvey one... whats that called again...

Mmm. Machete. I was out this morning with mine and some other woodworking stuff. I’m making a bench to sit inside the hollow of the tree in the background.

I think I have everything except a machete indeed ! have a sickle a curvey small machete...

Billhooks to you!

When we got the kitchen done I made up a chopping board from some of the oak worktop offcuts. I think I have to sharpen more often than I used to - is oak a bad material for cutting on?

Anyone want an unused one of these for the cost of post/packaging (£3ish): https://www.leatherman.co.uk/collections/sheaths/products/leatherman-leather-sheath-4

Came with warranty replacement for some reason

It's known for blunting carpenters' tools, so I guess it would be hard for your knives too.
FWIW I think beech is supposed to be good due to some antiseptic properties maybe and taste neutral.

Hi. I could do with that for my Rebar if it's available still?

Let me DM you.

If you're chopping in the kitchen I guess you're using a steel to sharpen your knives?
Just give them a little touch every time you use them. Just avoid a granite work top.
