    My ex wife was very keen on the leather work. The biggest job she ever did was a full leather rifle scabbard for a mate of mine. Still got some of the tools in the shed

    @puku Got a cold steel pig sticker (can't remember model, big bugger) really good, doesn't hold an edge for to long being stainless but can get it pretty sharp with a quick steel. Some of the demo videos online are crazy, can remember a guide using one to stab a wounded buff.

    The "ouch" about that BR is the NZD330 landed. Its a great knife though.
    I've got a very old Master Hunter and its been a faithful old knife. I use it for cleaning up heads and rough work. Stands up to it well. Mine is their carbon steel model. I expect that their stainless models are pretty shitty. There is some crap Chinese stainless being used in knives nowadays, and I think that the Cold Steel knives are made in China now.

    Thanks tahr. They have some quite cheap knives I see. But the two I'm looking at are VG-1 and San Mai III steel. About $225 & $240 on blademaster
