Re: The DAMAUKPK Project: Damasteel UK Penknife UKPK

I did see that the damasteel pattern, blade shape, and g10 color had been selected. I didn't see if blade grind and g10 texture had been discussed. Will the blade be a full-flat grind?

I wasn't really serious about handle contouring and damasteel backspring, I'm sure that would not be feasible :)

Re: The DAMAUKPK Project: Damasteel UK Penknife UKPK

What kind of grind would folks like to see on this blade? A hollow grind might show off the depth of the damasteel layers in a more interesting way than a full flat grind. I've not owned a damascus blade before, but the pictures I've seen of damascus blades with a higher degree of contouring than FF...

Re: My Urban's Spinning Pivot: Lessons Learned

The blade play and action were actually at a good place at that point and then I made it way worse trying to get the thing apart :) To be clear, the blade play and walk and talk were fin...

Re: K390 in Golden made spydies ?

Small Pattada in K390? I'm in! The fit and finish on my Urban K390 was fantastic and assuming it will be made in the same Italian factory as the Urban gives even more reason to want another Italian K390 Spyderco.

Re: K390 in Golden made spydies ?

I've been using my Urban K390 constantly since last summer. I love it! It eats through cardboard and doesn't quit, way moreso than my HAP40 Delica. Personally, I'd like to see a sub-3.5" locking folder in K390, made in any country. I'd buy that. The Police 4 is just too big for me to carry, alt...
