Any 0.6mm in full spools?

Thank you sir!

Thanks! It really is great. I had two others that just sold, so wanted to put this one out there. Will have more styles available if interest will be there

Hi guys I have a custom handmade by my brother and myself Kiridashi slicing/skiving knife. I normally dont list our knives here, but this design is very convenient for leather work, and I use one daily myself, so wanted to see if anyone would be interested in this one. Knife is made from AEB-L stainless steel and is hardened to 60RCH. It has solid brass handle and hidden pins. Very light and comfortable in hand. It is a one sided bevel which is great for skiving and slicing, it's kind of a big X-Acto knife Knife pictured is not sharpened (for safety) and can be sent out dull or sharpened with our WickedEdge system. Here are more details and photos for you guys: 5-1/2" Brass Kiridashi Knife in AEB-L Steel DETAILS: Blade Steel: AEB-L Stainess Overall Length: 5.5" Cutting edge: 2" Blade Finish: Acid Wash Blade Thickness: 0.080 Handle Thickness: 0.26" Highest Point: 0.64" Knife Weight: 38 grams Handle Materials: Solid Brass Plate, Hidden Brass Pins Features: Single Edge Kiridashi blade | Thumb File Work | Solid Brass Handle Asking:$100 for knife plus extra for shipping worldwide.

Hey thanks!

Thanks Troy! and yes Puppies!

I recently got myself two puppies, a German Shepherd and a Corgi, and so I made some leads for them (or is it leash?) this weekend. I made two 3/4 leads (one for my dads puppy) and one 3/8 lead for smaller puppy. Also decided to make a city short lead as well. All made from Hermann Oak Veg tanned leather, double lined (one is 9/10 and other is 4/5oz), and small one is two 4/5oz straps all double stitched and hand riveted. Hardware is solid brass. All the long leads are just shy of 6' long and city on is around 18" or so. Handle area is Merino wool lined lambskin. Makes it very nice and padded, feels great in the hand Finished the leather with neatsfoot, and wax/sealer/oil and essence oils mixture i concocted for my outdoor use products. Overall I am happy with my first set of leads/leashes. Now need to make matching collars for them. Hope you guys like! (sorry, I got excited with the photos)

Thanks! I'll only do this when I have actual knife available as I wet mold it into place and stitch very tightly to knife. So we shall see

Sorry no photo of it with strap. It was last min addition right before I gave it away.

Thanks!

Quick little project i did for a custom knife my brother made. I did add a snap strap to it after I took the photo for extra safety.

If you get another one like this, I am your buyer!

Took does look nice but my only concern is what steel was used and how well it was tempered. I read somewhere that Blanchard pricking irons are around 59-60 HRC and that is really nice. Now if this to is low 50 or even 40s, it just won't last long until a tooth breaks (I really hope it won't).

If you are a woodworker, then you probably have a lot of basic tools already. As I tell everyone that is testing waters is to figure out what they want to make and then base new tool purchase on that project. I would not buy kits as they have things you might never use. Buy known brands if possible and buy used. I got most of my first tools on ebay and forums that were beat up and used. Still use them today because quality was great to start with. First good tool I bought new was a good awl and handle from fellow users here. It was best $70 I spent at that time. Having a sharp awl was awesome. Then when/if you keep going with leather working, buy best you can afford, it will be worth it (for most part) - I am super disappointing from the new Blanchard #1 edger I got. My ebay #1 off brand edger does much better job. Some hand tools just cost a lot to begin with and Chinese versions are almost never a good alternative. I bought a belt end cutter for $10 on ebay a while ago and I laughed when I got it. It was such poor quality I literally just tossed it without even trying it out. It was just completely non symmetrical and dull and just horrible. I went and bought a CS Osborne for $60 that same afternoon. So sometimes you learn from mistakes

Has this sold?

Looking for fortuna top/bottom bell skiver. I'm in Portland OR. Let me know what you have and lets talk price. Thanks!

Is this still available? I'm in Portland OR

Has this ever sold?

Okay thanks for checking. I thought I am missing something I will check CR for Fenice. Thanks a lot!

Hey thanks for the advice. Do you have a link to the dye? I dont see it on their page. Thanks!

Jlrowe, I do both. But natural shows wax the most. It makes nice shades of brown and light creases when you twist the leather piece.

I melt beeswax into veg tan all the time, I love the look it gives afterwards when you use the leather. Been doing that for about 2 years now.

Ahh where were you a month ago! Just bought a set of #11. Good luck on the sale.

Still available?

Beautiful, What thread size is that? I am planning on getting #10 Blanchard, and want to get best matching thread for it.
