Imperial E/O Amber Bone EDC

Post by Toejammer »

Old Imperial Prov. easy open jack - blades were toast, but I had a spare blade from a Imperial scout knife lying about, so I gave it a try. The knife fell off the bench at one point, and cracked off a piece of handle, so I decided to go with a weather beaten look. Kept the patina on the blade / liners / bolsters and polished out the cracked spots to get a pocket worn look. Sittin in my pocket right now. :D

Fantastic looking knife Jammer! I love the jigging pattern on there, and the shades of color in the bone, very cool. Those Imperial scout knife main blades take an edge like nobody's buisness!

Thanks guys ! I was pretty ticked off when the knife took a swan dive off the bench. But then I figured, why make a swan...... just make a duckling. ::hmm:: Now I have a nice little EDC I don't have to "baby" when using !

Once i get my belt sander, I'll be fairly dangerous ! Well, at least my scales won't have Dremel divits in them anymore. ::rotflol::

You'll have a ball with it! Be careful at first, belt sanders can leave some pretty nasty divots themselves. ::nod::
