I hope it looks like the pics there. Color looks way better.

Welcome. Some fine knives you’ve got there, especially the Dragonfly and Native. Stick around.

Thanks for the compliments, guys. :cool: It feels great in the hand now. Very nice! Finally got myself a wharncliffe delica :D Nice. How do you like it? I’m missing using mine because the restaurant closed for now. I bet you would have really put one to work in your past job. I remember all your wel...

Rounded edges on Caly 3 HAP40 and Lil Native. I can finally use them.

Softened and rounded the edges on my Caly 3 HAP40. Now I can finally use it.

As long as you do it in private I don't care! Lol

Exactly, sis. :cool:

I open it as fast as I need to with the regular thumb in the opening hole traditional method. It's fast and sure and gets out and open quicker than an auto and I just don't need it to be faster. The back locks get smoother as time goes by and the opening hole keeps my thumb right where it's suppose...

Rounded the scales on my Lil Native, and now I’ll finally use it. Feels way better. Now, I have to do the same to my HAP40 Caly 3. So harsh on the hand when square and new.

You guys and gals are awesome. Thank you for the pics. It looks better than the HAP40.

Thanks. So, it’s a bit brighter and more orange than the HAP40 FRN?

Is this picture accurate on how the color looks?

I have Dragonflies that spin. It’s just the D thing stripping. Doc’s was getting gritty and tight, though. I think it’s the lock surface breaking down. A slot needs to be ground in the pivot screw back, so a flat driver can hold it still, and find out. Or did you already figure it out, Doc? I can’t ...

... and, with a nice handle color. I can’t wait.

I really must say, this colouring just looks horrible to me. The mismatched thing is not for me.

Freshly touched up

Nice. What are you cutting with it?

I could hug you, Sal, but we’re quarantined.

It's going to be a long wait for the Dfly, and to find out if a wharncliffe Delica's in there.

Unfortunately my faincé put it in the "charity box" together with a lot of other cutlery and kitchen utensils.

Yah, not cool, if it was important.

I sharpen all my knives to around 15 per side, unless they come that way. Then I leave them until touchup time. 20 per side is crappy for whittling wood. You have to push too hard. I wish they all came at 30 degrees (15 per side). I don't care about microbevels. I guess I make them when I lightly ge...

Knowing your part in developing the jazzlica, have your "new" appreciation of serrations changed anything for you regarding the wharncliffe? Do you still use it? Do you now prefer the serrated version? I like a plain edge wharncliffe, but with serrations I like a bit of belly to let the t...
