That makes it worth it!

Interesting, thanks Ricky!

Well done Mr. Wallace. I always thought if you soaked metal and vinegar you had to neutralize it when you were done with baking soda. I don't think there's anything you can't do. Every thing I seen u do turned out awesome. ✌👍

Thank you! A Country boy can survive!

I was told by a plumber that there is a secret to soldering metal,,,,,,, could never get that secret out of him though. (LOL) SO, I just soldered like an electrician! :-) Worked so far!

That knife is going to be awesome when it's done! I bought one of those knives at a military surplus store almost 20 years ago, and that one says it's made by Ontario, still identical though.

Great Knives! Worth whatever the money is!
