ALL THE BEST DUCKWING No i did not use a spacer,- its just silver solder and High strength Devcon Epoxy for guard and handle. Still a lot to do yet but its looking ok. I was just trying to show a few on this site that you can get some decent blades and parts that give a good knife thats not too expensive. Thanks Duckwing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
