hi im new to this and was wondering if anyone new where i can get a half decent knife in belfast or close by as i cant use my credit card for a while. thanks

what kind of knife are you after?

if its a fishing/filleting knife then anyof the angling shops will sell you one.

if its a bushcraft type then thats another matter.

not all knives are the same though dude and you,ll probably find the cheaper shop bought ones are a but shite ,440 steel or softer.

you need to be more specific.

Army surplus shops are probably your best bet but with current knife laws it's hard to find decent knives in the high street.

hi im looking a bushcraft knife as i have lots of them but as you said pablo they are all fishing knifes and i need the right one for the job

pablo · « **Reply #4 on:** December 13, 2009 »

i could throw one together for 45 quid without a sheath.nothing special,but still 4mm 01 steel heat treated and oak handles.

theres more to this caper than i though actually , but if you look at the `making your own knife thread then you,ll see what i mean.

ok pablo do it then ill buy one. i have looked at it, infact im going to give it a go myself and i got an old file to do it with as i have a great video i got ages ago of youtube about making them and forgot about it

do yourself a flavour mate and get some o1 flat ground stock and save yourself loads of work. unless you like grinding and sanding.

flat stock will cost you about 6 quid and 9 quid for delivery ,but you get enough for two blanks.

ill look into that cheers, but are you still going to make me one and when can you have it ready cheers

pablo · « **Reply #8 on:** December 13, 2009 »

yeah,ill make you one and it should be ready about wednesday.

but understand its not a professional set up.but id say your getting your moneys worth.

i,ll stick some oak handles on this with some red liners or black if you prefer.

what do you think?

You can pick up a hultafors knife which is the same as a mora practicaly for £6 at CEF electrical complete with plastic sheath. They are an excellent knife.
