I love the Resiprene C handles on the Scrapper 6!! THAT is THE perfect handle material for a knife!! So, I CAN understand the want for INFI & Resiprene C!!!

Living on the isle of Britain, I would suspect that the salty air is a problem that most of us don't have to be concerned with. Extra vigilance and maintenance would definitely be required, as Thom pointed out. Anyone living on a U.S. coast should have the same concern. Of course, that FINE product RENWAX comes from Britain....................... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I thought of making sheaths a while back. At the time though, my stabbed hand was still too useless for the task. Now I’m getting a bit better, maybe I could get back to making some. I never did make a M6 sheath for sale, just my own for me. I think it will also fit the Scrapper 6, though I’ve not tried it. With all these great knives coming out at once (Bowie, BM, Crash Axe, Howler) I dunno how much $ people will have left for sheaths. Then again, maybe they’d be so broke they couldn’t afford a more expensive one and would buy one of mine instead. Yeah, that’s the ticket! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Clear driveways? Oh hell no, not with my back. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" /> I have scoliosis and snapping scapula syndrome. I wouldn’t last more than a few minutes. Too bad I don’t have a snowblower. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> Just walking I start hurting after 10-15 mins. 30 mins of walking or more and I need a cane or walking stick. Besides the horrible pain, it causes swelling of my muscles and pushes against my lungs until I can only take like half breaths and I have to push against my muscles with labored breathing just to breath. It feels like I have a weight on my chest when I breath. It’s a major pain in the @$$ that impeads a lot of my nature loving activities. They haven’t yet given me anything strong enough to help it. They gave me Darvocets (which barely do anything) and they were afraid anything stronger would be too dangerous and addictive. And probably cost a fortune since I don’t have insurance. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" /> I’ll just have to keep trying to find things to eBay for knife $ I guess. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Paul,

I'm in complete agreement with your reasons. Oh well, I'm still so psyched for this bowie.

Andy - I did not realize that you had back problems! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/footinmouth.gif" alt="" />

With your computer abilities, sounds like eBay and perhaps other computer related work is the answer. In the meantime, Naylor's No-Nonsense Sheaths will help. Good luck!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> Tom

I am a huge fan of Eric of On/Scene Tactical, and I can not wait until HE gets some Scrap Yard Knives. No offense to you guys here!!! I have looked at your work, and you do some nice work too!!

Thom, no problem mate! The bowie is stunning, but for my corrosion hang-up I'd be thinking of doing a lot more about owning one than posting on the competition! I can't really justify a (n other) chopper and I still want that bowie... it is just too right. This country has relative humidity like Florida on a bad day and cool weather like Alaska on a bad day! Plastic goes rusty over here... That's why Land-Rovers are Ali-alloy and rivet and bolt together! (Pity they break down so often...)

I really wasn't trying to dis the sr77 bowie, it rocks!

Andy sorry to hear about your back problems! That sucks... It speaks very well of your character that you are still so positive. I think Thom is right about your future employment though you are Mr. Web-head!

Paul - are you trying to say that Andy has cob-webs in his head ?!? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

the BOWIE is hEre???????? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Paul and Andy - I left the door wide open for postings with my "cob-web" comment - just trying to help your counts!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

So when's the Bowie shipping? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Good question Thom - along with "what's the cost"?!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" />
