Re: Please help a noob.....definitely says sheffield

I'd second the motion to use a No. 2 lead pencil to remove rust from the blade. In my experience it has proven helpful to oil the rusty blade and give the oil a few minutes to soak in before using the pencil to remove the rust. The oil seems to soften the rust a bit, making the pencil more effective...

I'd rather have a simple, amateur description of the actual knife under discussion along with some good clear photos than an AI generated bunch of smoke and mirrors BS. Even if you're far from an expert, you can still te...

Re: First Cup Diner!

Greetings diners. I'm sure everyone is long gone by now but I'm running on a delayed schedule and coffee is just now being served here on the creek. We've got a beautiful sunny day on hand with a temp of 62 headed for a predicted high of 70. Sounds pretty near perfect to me! I'm waiting on a plumber...

Re: Dole Advertising knife

It might be helpful to show the knife with blades open and if possible, a close up shot or two of the tang stamp.

Re: SOG Stingray "Kraton" (Rubber) Scale Replacement - Any Thoughts?

I've owned a couple of knives like this one. It's not an inexpensive knife. I'd suggest it might be worth more as is that if it is rehandled. If you're going to keep it, that may not be an issue for you. But if you think you might want to flip it and make a few bucks, "as is" would be my s...

Good luck. It's been over two years since the seller logged in to AAPK. I'd suggest you might want to try sending him an email.

Boji I really like the looks of that revolver. I'm with you on using 357 ammo in a light weight J frame. Too much recoil for me.
