    Yeah mate, can do, easy as when you have the right equipment, can you show me a pic of the knife and use a pen to draw the line you are wanting. Key is to do at it a low speed and keeping the metal cool so as not not lose the temper, then once the new shape is there to sharpen it to blend it all together so it looks seamless.

    Ok @Shelley I'll get a pic, the new shape would be similar to the bark river knife above. Couple of questions how long dose it take?
    Could you do it next week? cheers

    I respect your beliefs but don't impose them on me.

    Probably, will really only take an hour or so to do, but like John Worthington says, if you are closer to him then the post will be easier that way, I'm in Auckland.

    You're bit now. There's no going back!

    Now that you have the standard Fox River, you need the set:
    Featherweight Fox River
    Fox River LT
    Fox River LT Elmax
    Fox River II
    Fox River II LT

    Around $1,500 should cover it.

    Mate, I can always use sandpaper, I go through it like a duck through water, what sort of a skinning knife are you after, shape and size?
    I have a few that are part made, one fully finished and lots of spare steel in either 3 mm or 4 mm, if you have a specific shape in mind I can make it, or you can see what I have underway.

    That's a nice knife.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
