zini 1,939 Posted August 24, 2010 Report Share Posted August 24, 2010 Hi guys, Ive got to say that I had a knife designed and made by Rob myself; it’s the first knife down in the photos he posted. The whole thing is total class from tip of handle to end of the blade and sharp as hell. I got the Lansky sharpener on task with it when I got it home and now it will shave you easily and not blunt like some poorer knives ive owned, I even tried it on some wood after sharpening it to see how quickly it lost its edge, but it didn’t at all. I recommend anyone who is into field sports / hunting gets a knife designed by Rob. Mine has a clip on the back of the sheath that attaches to your boot / belt or pocket. Well done Rob mate for the great work and slut point awarded. Si Quote Link to post

andyfr1968 772 Posted August 24, 2010 Report Share Posted August 24, 2010 (edited) He told me I can't call myself a knife maker because I don't make the blades But I've never said that I make the blades I buy them then make the handles and the sheaths Atb rob Yeah, right... In the same way Morgan can't call themselves bespoke car builders 'cos they use BMW engines? Makes perfect sense. Not.... Don't let it bother you, Rob. You've some really first class looking steel there and a recomendation from Zini's much better than most. Cheers. Edit... When I'm a little less strapped, I'll be in touch about one for myself.

bedrock 16 Posted August 24, 2010 Report Share Posted August 24, 2010 Hi bedrock it's a Linder soligen blade with buffalo handles and that 1 is £45 posted Atb rob That’s a good price fair play The falconry set is a very good Idea I’ve seen people use sharpened screwdrivers for the spike. but I think A set like that looks more professional. Good luck with the sales. Quote Link to post
