New Car Knife design! Venom F5

[Leon County Slayer]

I'm pretty stoked about this one because we'll get to see the car soon at our Men's dinner next week - it sounds amazing!!! Hennessy is up the road from us and has some history here at the church. He's going to be speaking on leadership, his personal relationship with Christ, and how to fine tune an engine for High Performance - come join us if you can! Here's the knife I made as a gift for his time and generosity - it was great fun to design......

Carbon Fiber bolster - Dovetailed into a custom paper micarta / resin handle (his car has a similar design - the logo is cast into the carbon fiber - crazy!) Worked up some leather for it as well with a new overall design i played with adding some "bursts" around the circles.

Thank you! I have a friend that makes scales for knifemakers and he prints them on a special material then prints several pieces and stacks (like micarta) Then the entire thing is soaked in resin that is hardened under vacuum to prevent bubbling)

I then hand sand through grits starting at 120 grit and slowing moving up through 5,000 grit then a light polish with white rough and finish off withe a coat of Eagle's Tears (really!, haaa it's the name of wax paste I use - love that name!)

John Hennessy is a pile of ****! He’s where he is today because of the huge expense of a lot of people. Mfr should be in jail.

[CabezaBlanca]

Nice knife by the way. You should bill him for it.

Great look-n knife!



And I've been wondering what kinda car that was. Saw one on Counting Cars not long ago, and didn't catch the name. The car owner was get-n a paint job added. Car had the exhaust exiting up through the cowling in the back, rather than straight out the back. He was a pretty young feller tatted up with a sharp look-n girlfriend/wife. He let her drive it off after they got done painting it some. Cali people.
