The other Bowie style knife is a bit bigger. Also K110 Bohler, scales made o ironwood. HRC 58-59 Full tang, guard also N690. Polished to 1500 grit 39cm. Weighs in at 850 grams.

As per request. Chopper, blade K110 Bohler steel. 9mm spine. HRC about 60. Full tang Guard Bohler N690 Grip Vesconite.

Looks like an Anschutz

Dropping like in acid?

I dropped them

Yes. The wider 10 speed chain on a 11 speed cassette will not be optimal to say the least. As soon as the angle of the chain is not close to 90 deg (read cross chain) the chain will hook onto the bigger gear. Hop skip and jump.

Nice. Mine is a small frame, flat bar, 29er wheels. 35c tires. Can go up to 38c. 10 speed 42-11

How many girls do you expect here with distasteful comments like these?

My son asked me for a camp knife /chopper. I made one from bohler k110. 8mm spine. Quite a long day grinding... After hardening I sharpened the edge to 25deg (v shape edge). It did not last long before micro chipping could be seen with a magnifying glass. I must say he really tried his best to test it. Stabbing, chopping wood, log splitting... I changed the edge to a convex grind. The initial sharp 'feel' of the edge was less, but it lasted much longer. With very little edge damage.

The reason I ask is that I have quite a selection of working knives made of various steels. 1045, 1095, 1095cro van, UHB20C(similar to 1095), 5160, 12C27, 1.4116, 420, 420HC, VG10, 8cr13mov, aus8, N690, N680, Schleinper and M390. Always interesting how these measure up with different grinds, hardnesses and sharpening angles. Hair poppers vs edge stability vs usable cutting edge. I have 2 blades in d2. One is a Steel Will (advertised as rockwill 58-60) and the other one is a Kizlyar. Same specs. BUT the Steel Will Modus will take a 17deg edge (Lansky sharpener) and the kizlyar amigo might take it, but will have micro chipping of the cutting edge at this angle. I will see if a 20deg angle lasts longer.

How is the edge holding?D2 model?

Groups? Pictures?

I suspect hardtails will die with the concept of round wheels

Maybe an ebike and epo category?

Most 270's are equipped with barrels better suited for 130gr bullets. Flat base bullets are usually less expensive than boat tails

A learning curve. Skoolgeld. After 38 years of reloading I still pay skoolgeld.

Thanks A local bike shop said they could fix it.

One of my older motorcycles (dt 50) has rust in the tank. A lot. Does anyone know of guys who can remove the rust and epoxy coat the inside?

Disarming the tax paying public does not have anything to do with crime prevention. And the NHI does not have anything to do with public health. It does have lots to do with total control.

Also check that the bullets are .270 bullets. And not .280(actually 7.2mm) or 7mm (these are actually 7.25 mm) bullets. Very similar these. Sometimes these measurements can produce headaches. And disasters. MOST .270 bullets are either 130 or 150gr.

Sometimes a bulge forms in the neck of the bass if you try to taper crimp? Overall cartridge length? Does store bought ammo fit in the chamber?

This was a 'religious' thread from the beginning. The total intolerance towards others, sinners destroying the world. While they are the saviors.
