Ok this is a simple question that I’m hoping you can all clarify for me. I don’t have all the fancy equipment and knowledge you all have. I also have one of the worst cases of psoriatic arthritis that my doctors have ever seen so I can’t do the repetitive cut testing. But I do try. The thing that h...

I did say relative for a reason, but depending on how it's done I could.. easily see it being possible. Cheap? Not quite. Dependable? Also a question mark. Id compare it to FS welding aluminum. It works if it's done correctly.

Obviously it's testable but I can't offer that apparently, I'd believe the 66 personally. They're usually not wrong.

Interesting read. Don’t know the answer to the question. But it got me wondering can you 3D print a quality knife? Yes. You can. Obviously relative wording there but this is what's next FYI guys. Edit: VandymanG , reason why I posted this is cause i had the same questions and it's... Uncanny how th...

Nobody cares about run on sentences on the Internet. FYI I cut mine off also and entirely restrapped it. Tactical clothing is a lot better than it has been so you don't need.. that loop it's very pointless and everyone I've shown it to agrees. For Spydercos evaluation, not as if I'm holding my breath.

I should add that my daily driver has partial anti lag(just retarded timing), full novek fire suppression system, sequential straight cut (enjoy the noise) gearbox w act street clutch cause the stock ones are garbage, but everything else is stock. Injectors fuel pump turbo intake exhaust - all stock...

Do I find joy using my knives? Uh no I don't they're a tool. I've never thought to myself ah that cut of tomato was.. satisfying lmao. I enjoy making em cause it's something to do nothing more or less. I've been the one saying that science is BS since I have joined here and I can kinda say that with...

Brain science lmao. Please sir, how could we know the organ that controls.. how we think about science lmao. Ya no not scientific. Not in my life.

Time and place.

Period.

Na I honestly just don't care about it on the internet - which this is.

It's marketing mate. I don't do marketing or money lol sorry but that's exactly why the US is how it is and why I am how I am. I just don't care to enhance another companies marketing bullshit that isn't scientific. It's monetary. That's not real science lol henceforth why the US keeps the military ...

That's not science that's people who think they know what science is and why the USA is long behind China. We forgot how to do real science a long time ago. I still do it however the world doesn't. Oh no it's going to effect emotions! That's not science lol that's psychology. I can defend mengele fo...

Sorry for the bringing up the dead but YES I have searched this forum very briefly but what exactly is "cobalt special"? Is that something that is knowable elementally and.. how's it actually made? I gathered it's a laminated construction which.. makes absolutely no sense to me. I can't j...

For these cuts I didn’t rely on a jig but just did the old fashioned method of creeping up on the fit. Similar to most of my hand done wood joinery I will cut away the bulk of the material first (in this case with the cutting disc) and then change over to something that removes material slower (car...

Thanks for the info on grinding the intricate bits. So it sounds like high speed (Dremel or Foredom) type tools with a combo of cutting discs, carbide bits, CBN bits, and diamond bits would get the job done. The freehand level of accuracy you're able to obtain, is remarkable. I can see how the tang...

Excellent! May I ask how you made the complex and intricate shapes in the very hard steel of the tang? What tools can do this? Any can technically. Most of us use CBN/MCD coated tool bits but even a softer steel would still abrade it eventually. SiC (very hard also) isn't used often but is very goo...

And ya no sorry people who are afraid of guns there is.. a legitimate fear I'm well aware of that one although I will never understand it myself, but it's still just an excuse at the end of the day. Fear is temporary unfortunately in war which isn't good. Same applies to life IMO. I suppose that I c...
