For the knife handle.
Sanded to 400x, filled marrow pores with Med CA, sanded to 400x, buffed with Ultrafine Steel Wool, and polished with Hut Ultra Gloss.
These will be great sellers at the up coming Gun and Sportsmen Shows.

To close the knife, first remove the threaded protector and unscrew the blade. Next, slide the blade into the tube and re-thread it onto the coupler. Screw the thread protector on to the exposed threads.

To open the knife, remove the thread protector and unscrew the blade from the handle. Re-thread the knife into the coupler, then slide the thread protector over the blade and thread it onto the exposed threads.

Hi Les,

Two immediate users came to my mind those that sew and the ones that fish, SWHMBO says a fruit knife. I say a knife for all reasons a potential runaway success.

With your panache and design go for it.

Kind regards Peter.
