From jantz this is a professional one.

Id like to see some pics of your own homemade ones and their results. Also I'd be interested in a trade for one you have extra, either homemade or professional. I've got several knives with broken blades that could be made into useful knives by removing half of the internal sections and I want to try my hand at a little repairing.

Here is the style I make.

It is patterned after one from the Camillus factory.

Hawke you stole my spinner!!!! :shock: :lol: I just use one I bought that looks exactly like the one you have pictured. Works ok but I've only used it a time or two so far. Ain't had much time to work on knives since I got it.

Dale, great looking spinner! ::tu::

I've patterned mine after Dale.....and when I have used it, it worked fine after a bit of experimentation with speed, lube and pressure.
