kdhampton Moderator Bose Forum Registered: 10/03/06 Posts: 525 Loc: Terre Haute, IN	Here we have a 4.5" BP done in a green canvas shadow. Tony used CPM D-2 for the blade and this knife is going to be performance tested on a high tech cutting machine. It's scary sharp! This knife has the typical half stops and is flush jointed(includes the spring end). _________________________ KerryNIFE HamptonEAD

Thanks Tony (and Kerry for the great post) I'm going to send this to Case to run tests on the CATRA tester they have. That is a computer controlled cutting machine that cuts ASTM controlled paper and prints out the results. There chief engineer gathers infromation on different steels for referance. _________________________ Tony Bose

But, the rest of the story is... I showed Tony what I did to flush joint my knife a while back and I think I heard him mumble something about a glove being thrown down or somethin like that. The difference being, with Tony it is totally skill and I was lucky. This is mine pictured below. The truth is if it wasn't for Tony showing me what it was, I wouldn't know a flush joint from a flushed toilet. _________________________ KerryNIFE HamptonEAD

Lets see..I'll now get a phonecall from Reese saying.."Kent..about your order"... Really, just another great looking knife, It will be interesting to hear how the test's go on it! Kent
