Ugly is as ugly does. And those don't do ugly.

Your file work is great. Im curious do you use a Dremel or hand file?
I know on your other thread there was discussion of American stag, I don’t mind the pith and being stabilized I see no problems using what you have at all. That said I like fat stag hafted down on pocket knives too so everybody just has different taste. That’s what makes customization fun!!

Well, I'm glad you confirmed that, Alien, but from what I see in your pictures I'd have to question this!

Re: Another of these "ugly" Puma knives
Sir, I use files...due to the hardness of blades and back I use special diamond files for that...stag is stag after all...it all depends how you work with it...and as mentioned...how you personally like it!! I think as long as I enjoy myself piddlin around....it's all well 'n dandy!!! LolC-WADE7 wrote: ↑Sun Mar 12, 2023 10:44 pmYour file work is great. Im curious do you use a Dremel or hand file?
