beautiful fix

Post by tongueriver »

Fantastic way to fix a broken knife cover. Absolutely beautiful! Just epoxy a slab of metal on there!

Well it’s quick, and easy and doesn’t require any special tools!
And apparently it makes it an “unusual” knife.

Makes me wonder, if it was placed, to put on some type of magnet holder? That type handle material is darn near indestructible. Even if you're in to modding electricians knives, that one is in pretty rough shape.

I don’t think it’s metal. Looks to me like it may be the way the handle was molded. Possibly for an inscription.
