      Hm, I bet the Wicked Edge dude was inspired by that, there are some similarities, aside from the orientation being different.

      Think it, be it.

        Just heard back from the gentleman I commissioned to make me a desert ironwood scale and lockbar overtravel stop for my Spyderco Southard. He will complete the finishing this evening and ship tomorrow. Let's just say I'm quite pleased with his work. We discussed it and he made it to my specifications, no lanyard hole and a smoother framelock cutout.

        Think it, be it.

          The new Work Sharp device is all the rage these days. Same basic idea as a belt sander, but comes with an attached jig

          Mclain, who did you go with? That guy in Europe? I think his name is Cuscadi, not sure

            There were dozens of rigs like that when Wicked Edge came out. Lansky has had one out forever, DMT has had one for years, the Edgepro Apex was the standard for a lot of years…

              It's so expensive. It seems though that being able to do each side at the same time instead of one at a time is an advantage unless I'm mistaking the design of the thing.

              Doug, I picked up a 4 sided stropman with a smooth side, thanks for the recommendation.

              Steven Ketchen made the scale and stop. It was USD90. I think he's American. He has awesome burled walnut and other materials that are less than half that price, but I specifically requested the ironwood.

              Think it, be it.

                The lansky can do both sides aswell. In the pic with buddy sharpening  the part he is holding is the exact same as the top part that is visible. Just flip the whole thing over and ta da, u r ready for the other side lol

                      I'm not sure I would crack skulls with something as nice as that.

                      I have half a dozen rattan sticks lying randomly around my house (I didn't place them there, they just get strewn all over the place somehow)

                              I keep a Mossberg 590A1 and a Glock 34 by the bed

                              In the car I keep a ball peen hammer. There's something about stepping out of your car with a ball peen hammer that makes impromptu social engagements so much more polite

                                I keep a katana and a Ka-bar next to my bed. There's something that says CRAZY about a guy running out of his bedroom in his underwear in the middle of the night with a long, sharp, motherfucking sword!

                                  Hahahaah. I agree on both counts. The hammer is a good idea because it wouldnt be considered a weapon if it were to be found in ur car during a search. Ive got a couple swords as well but im kinda found of blunt force trauma

                                    Clarifying for PP: the hammer would NOT be considered a weapon

                                            Thanks! If anyone wants scales from this dude I can hook you up with him. He does other knives and woods. This is a presentation grade piece of timber. All his stuff is. Love it.
