if anybody wants to know why custom knives are so expensive those two pins
cost me that much and that's a lot of money but it makes the knives look so
much better and I only use these custom pins I only use them on the highly
polished knives because they just make them look so much nicer so it is worth
the extra the extra money and the knives this knife the door cheat and the swamp

I was gonna say something nice about Texas knife makers supply Texas knife
maker supply calm for knife makers that is V website they you can buy the steel
the 1095 you can buy all kinds of knife making steel from man pins bolsters wood
epoxy sandpaper so I ordered a 12-inch well let me turn the light on with this
you know there's what I word oh yes why don't you focus isn't that strange
all right I ordered an 8-inch mosaic pin 12 inches long and a quarter inch mosaic
pin 12 inches long they sent me the eighth inch and they sent me six inches
and can you see the price on the 12 inch they charged me that price 43 bucks and
sent me six inches okay no big deal you know companies make mistakes I've
dealt with this company long they're good outfit never had any mistakes so I
called their number right here and I emailed them through Amazon because I
bought this through Amazon and let them know that they shorted me six inches I
and I said I don't need another six inches I need a 12 inch because I'm so
exact with my measurements that I include the kerf the kerf is the
thickness of the blade that cuts it so I have no idea why they sent me a six inch
but they said no problem and I told them look I don't want nothing for free I
just want what I paid for if you'll send me a shipping label with the 12-inch
quarter inch mosaic pen I'll ship you the six inch back they said oh no you
can just keep that okay well great so there's a you know $20 worth of pen
right there for free just because they messed up so I'm still waiting
I got knives and aren't put together waiting waiting and today it shows up in
the mail and what is it it's another eighth inch Texas knife maker supply
y'all need to get your shit together man you're screwing me up here so he said
again okay sorry about that he says okay here I called the guy same guy I sent
the email to same guy that told me sorry about that we'll send you the right one
I got him again today he says well I know I sent a 12 inch pen I said sir it
is a 12 inch pen you sent the 8 inch and I was very specific and made it clear
that it was the quarter inch that I was shorted not the eighth inch to eight
inches fine I need the quarter inch and not only did I say
you an email I left you a voicemail telling you it was a quarter inch so
here we go again and I told him to send me a shipping
label I don't want nothing for free I'm sorry I'm yelling it started you know I
was all cool with this when it was just one mistake but they made the same
mistake again and it's kind of pissing me off because it's uh throwing the
whole schedule off with knife making you know I'm mowing the yard and I got a
whole bunch of things to do tomorrow I got a doctor's one it's gonna take me
all freakin day and now I don't have the pins that I order to make the knife or
the knives and so now let's throw me back another two days I can't do it
today because I don't have the pens I can't do it tomorrow because I have a
doctor's appointment so here we are and this is why I tell people don't get in a
hurry if you order a knife from me it might take a week or two or three or
four I just have to fit it into my life and you know it's not my job it's my
hobby so anyway sorry if I sounded cranky but
it just happened then when I open the box and sing the eighth inch pin I was
just I don't believe it the same mistake twice on the same order
with the same guy and I made it so very clear what I needed in the email that it
just even more mind-boggling chase alrighty thanks for watching y'all all
right I've got Murr Darren's done Murray mayhem Country Living got his done well
not done I still have to put an edge on the blade and I have to seal the leather
and then here I'm gonna set the phone down for just one second and then the
final thing I do is I take six hundred sandpaper and I drag I drag all the
lines this away that's the last thing I do after I put the edge on so this is
all one all the scratches go in one direction
600 grit okay so kind of like that thread that's the first one I've done
with a white thread right there look at all
this crap just to just to make this that's what it takes
all these little tools and I have the sheath for Brad's knife cut I'm probably
gonna start making this sheath in the morning that's the hard part getting to
cut out let's see where his knife is okay I really like that teak bong
chicken wah wah and this is the door cheap if anybody's wondering I have to
make the sheath put the edge on this and then give it its final buff I had to put
some tape over the handle here and give it its final buff I'm thinking about
putting some jimping hair I really like the look of the jimping and I've done it
on one other knife and it looked good and now I have a way of doing it or I
don't have to do it by hand by file and anyway just thought I'd show you the my
progress I have a knife on my bench now that I've got the handles epoxy and
pinned and I would I have to go to the doctor tomorrow or else I would work on
that but uh Friday I'll shake that handle Friday Friday night put a couple
coats true oil on and maybe it'll ship that Monday to okay I'm gonna put this
video up thanks for watching y'all
