bobcullen79 1,495 Posted April 20, 2014 Report Share Posted April 20, 2014 Always fancied a damascus knife, they sure do look pretty, and usually cost a lot more.. Seen this on amazon, thought I`d give it a shot. Its only use will be for opening rabbits up, as Ive found (might just be me) , it dont matter how sharp your knife is, if it hasnt a decent point, you can some times make gutting a rabbit harder than it is.. I plan on sharpening the top edge an inch too, so it should be a little effective zipper (If it dont crumble in my hands )http://www.amazon.co.uk/Genuine-Handmade-Damascus-Complete-Leather/dp/B00JNTBHCY/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1397980511&sr=8-4&keywords=south+coast+innovations Quote Link to post
Bosun11 537 Posted April 20, 2014 Report Share Posted April 20, 2014 I like that Bob, ticks all my boxes, Damascus, horn handle and ok sheath and at that price well worth a go IMO. I have a Shrade (spelling) old timer here of a similar shape and I ground down the top edge, works well, though that thing looks too nice to be doing that too. Quote Link to post
bobcullen79 1,495 Posted April 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2014 Yeah thats what I thought Bos... Im sure midnight said the cheap damascus is just that, cheap. But we`ll see. Im hoping its here tuesday. Just gonna go have a mooch for your blade.. Sounds nice. Quote Link to post
norseman 424 Posted April 20, 2014 Report Share Posted April 20, 2014 aye I would leave it as it is, looks a cracker for that price, Quote Link to post
bobcullen79 1,495 Posted April 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2014 I dont want to start recommending this seller, as Ive not felt/used his gear yet but he has a few nice knives at real fair prices.. Quote Link to post

Bosun11 537 Posted April 20, 2014 Report Share Posted April 20, 2014 Shaped same as this but as old as that other. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SCHRADE-OLD-TIMER-SHARPFINGER-KNIFE-152OTBC-BLACK-CAMO-152OT-/200910718275?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2ec7364543 Quote Link to post

I bought it as a kid, 35 years ago! Nice. I wish I had some of the blades I had as a boy. If someone had a knife I liked, I`d swap half my bedroom for it, then ultimately, me Ma would confiscate it. I`m still being given blades back now 25 years on I dont even recognise lol. None of the good ones mind 1 Quote Link to post
