knife in belfast

[belfastfisher]

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

[pablo]

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.

[RedLeader]

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]

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.

[belfastfisher]

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

[pablo]

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.

[belfastfisher]

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

[pablo]

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?

[belfastfisher]

spot on mate ill take it where can i meet you if you want to get me on my email its [email protected]

[belfastfisher]

prefere black if you dont mind cheers

[pablo]

no probs ,i,ll email you when its done ,with black liners.

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.

[belfastfisher]
