I have been percolating an idea to build something like the Saburo I have but with a sort of tanto blade and a Axis style lock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dranoel Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 The tanto is a Darrel Ralph Krait, The clip point push dagger convertible is Saburo X5 Green Beret. Saburo knives were sold through MAXAM years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the lock-back design it feels fairly safe. I've neve had it let go. but I'm planning on using an Axis lock style system with the toggle in front of the pivot.

Rudukai13 Posted June 16, 2021 Author Share Posted June 16, 2021 And now with the finished handle! I can’t honestly think of anything to say beyond that it looks absolutely perfect. In particular the little extra detail of the carbon fiber piece where the blade stems out from the handle, it’s just beautiful. You can also see how this side of the blade has the opposite edge ground. And a somewhat blurry screenshot from the video that shows how the two edges come together to form the point: I’m absolutely ecstatic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kellymc Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 (edited) A few of my 150 year old long knives all custom made at home. And a couple of my 100 year old folders. I lot of interesting things were going on at the Texas -Mexico boarder about 1870 when these were being carried daily Edited June 16, 2021 by kellymc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
