David Knife Enthusiast Registered: 03/04/07 Posts: 871 Loc: Idaho	I have a bycicle tire intertube over waxed line on my 18-5 1/2 Model 18. It works well. Truthfully though, I wish I had a 7 1/2 inch blade on this knife. The "stubby" 18 just doesn't suit me. _________________________ David RKCC No. 654 RKS No. 5462 SHAG No. 003 NRA Life Member www.explorerconsulting.com

TAH Knife Enthusiast Registered: 10/26/05 Posts: 2382 Loc: USA	Those older buttcaps sure had a lot of thread. Looks like it would take a couple of days to remove the cap. Nice looking knife and sheath. Love those 5 1/2" Model 18s! _________________________ Tom RKS #4233

TAH Knife Enthusiast Registered: 10/26/05 Posts: 2382 Loc: USA	Rex, the handle does look a little longer now that you mentioned it. Dang handmade knives! No consistency. _________________________ Tom RKS #4233
