Klein S1

Post by OLDE CUTLER »

I fixed up this 3 1/4" Klein S1 knife for Sundog for his birthday. Sundog and I have a communal box of POS knives and this was one of those. The rehandle was done with an acrylic pen blank material containing shredded US currency. Now Sundog is "in the money".

That's just cool as all get out! A knife handle made of ground up money! Is that a statement about this hobby? Great job!

Nice work on that knife! ::tu::
I like the nice polished finish you got on the handle, I don't imagine that was easy.

They shredded it pretty good, I couldn't make out any president in the scales.
