Members DustinSmith Posted August 13, 2020 Members Report Posted August 13, 2020 Decided to make my own swivel knives (I was a machinist for 20 years) stainless barrel and yoke rod with brass cradle, double stainless sealed bearings, these things spin like a fidget spinner! I actually love the fine knurling on them and the weight is on the heavier side but to me it adds confidence to my cutting for some reason lol What do you think? Actually thought about doing a limited run of these if there was any interest, thanks for looking Quote
Members battlemunky Posted August 13, 2020 Members Report Posted August 13, 2020 Looks great! I'd be surprised if there isn't interest in these. Have you used them yet? Quote
Members DustinSmith Posted August 13, 2020 Author Members Report Posted August 13, 2020 I use them every day, I made one about 2 months ago and made another the other day so I wouldn't have to switch out blades, they fit in my hand perfectly Quote
CFM chuck123wapati Posted August 13, 2020 CFM Report Posted August 13, 2020 those are excellent. I see a set screw in the top of the body are they adjustable in length? Quote
Members dikman Posted August 13, 2020 Members Report Posted August 13, 2020 Very nicely done! The enclosed brass finger "loop" is classy. Quote
Members DustinSmith Posted August 13, 2020 Author Members Report Posted August 13, 2020 They are adjustable in length, its a 1/4" shaft going into the barrel so its very sturdy Quote
Members OLESKIVER Posted August 17, 2020 Members Report Posted August 17, 2020 well, I just ordered two new sergys swivel knives, but...... do they come with or without blades? and what is the adoption fee? thanx Quote
Members mishka Posted August 17, 2020 Members Report Posted August 17, 2020 I'll be interested in one Quote
Members DustinSmith Posted August 17, 2020 Author Members Report Posted August 17, 2020 Hey y'all! If I do the run of swivel knives they would include a blade, it seems i have a few interested parties so let me put everything together and I'll get back with everyone soon! Thanks! Quote
Members Retswerb Posted August 17, 2020 Members Report Posted August 17, 2020 I might be interested as well. Price range? Quote
Members HaloJones Posted August 18, 2020 Members Report Posted August 18, 2020 I could be interested too, looking for one with a small blade for filigree stuff Quote
