Not sure I agree with you on the crossguard - I know it's huge but I like it. On the other hand, I fully agree about the sheath. Mine also protrudes about 5mm out of the entrance. The Von Tempsky golok, which is almost the same knife, sits flush in its sheath because the belt loop is fastened on lower on the back. I don't know why they didn't just do the same thing for the Bowie. I'm tempted to make the same modification as you but I'm worried about ruining it.
I did it. I made the same modification as you, down to the double-punched slit. Very pleasing outcome so thanks for the inspiration. If you do ever end up making a frog or something to belt carry again, please do share. I'd be very keen to know. But for now at least the blade is all covered.
Like the way you did the guard and the sheath. That is kind of goofy the way they made the sheath. I do like your sheath mod also. You are quite creative. Thanks for all the pictures/ videos and ideas, much appreciated. 🔪👍🗡️
Love your mods and you think just like me in your mods to that knife. Especially the way you are doing the guard mods. The frog idea is nice as well. Maybe a baldric rig sheath for that tank also. Something to think about. Nice work, Thanks for the update and info. 👍👍
Dang you didn't waste any time. Nice work now I know where to send mine when I get it. 😁 Jk really nice, when are you going to address the clip point? Thanks for the great pictures and review. 👍
Yeah buddy that guard is way better now and a knife should fit in the sheath all the way like it does now , so you did a upgrade on the Sheath & Blade ⚔️
How thick is you’re knife cause I saw a video of a guy with one with a blade stock of 3/16s I’m hoping that was in the past cause I wanna order one that is nice and thick
@@peterbiltknifeguy The tangs narrow enough to encapsulate in wood and then a leather wrap. If cutting off the quillons doesnt make it a whole new knife then a decent grind wont either. Since youre at it may as well do it right
Slip it in your pocket? What sort of abysmal caverns do your breechers posses that you can slip a freakin sword with sheath and all and be all casual about it?
Yeah I see you did an awesome job modify at my friend and you did it in such a way where it's almost not noticeable yeah I would leave the blade the way it is
I collect a lot of antiques and it’s neat to see professional replicas being made, id like to see professional Italian stilettos being made

I’m not 100% on the clip mod yet.
Good mods brother!👊
Thanks 👍
😊😊😊😊
I have the Von Tempsky great knife but yea I agree about the sheath
I rounded the handle. The square handle feels uncomfortable in my hand.
I wrapped mine in leather. Made a video on it
Yeah buddy

So I was lucky to get a thicker one. They are semi custom knives. So stock thickness varies
Decent mod for this knife would be full flat grind and new handle. Butno, lets just cut off the guard and belt loop
I literally got the knife in the mail that day. And that’s not modified. That’ll make it a whole new knife 🤦🏻♂️

@@mariaconcepcionrodriguezhe2850 i purchased this knife because of the grind it has. Already leather wrapped the handle and made a video on it

Not this knife in particular. But my other fixed blades.
