Excellent KIT. Laser burn marks are best removed with a diamond grit plate. I progressively sand my shiney on a piece of float glass and then progressed to lapping paper. I'm pleased

Excellent knife kit. I have both the 18mm and 25mm. They need clean-up before you assemble them. Unlike some other people complaining that it's rought and unfinished, come on put some though and efforts in it and take your time cleaning and assembling the knife. Use of OLFA branded blades was better for mine since i had some issues binding the blade on the frame half way sliding in or out. It also felt like i had to break it in for the blade to slide smoofhly. 11/10.

It’s… fine. Actual installation steps here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gs1g-z8ZLcY They should feature prominently on the product page, or as the final product image. Not nearly as refined or skookum as I’d expected. It took several searches and attempts to assemble adapting other product vijayos unsuccessfully until I finally found the right one. This was almost returned, TBH. With more sanding and use, I have hope that it’ll work and feel better, but first impressions aren’t great.

It’s a great knife that’s all you need to know. If you’re still here then the knife is not made for people who want a plastic piece of smooth dumpster fuel. It’s rough around the edges and that’s what you want. The knife will slowly mold to you. It’s a knife that will show how much you work. A piece that should be handed to the next generation.

I don't know what I was thinking, you have 0 instructions on assembly. It's a bunch of tiny pieces of metal, the copper pieces are too long to even fit, there's an extra hole. And no blade or file or driver or anything. Just trash. How am I supposed to put this thing together, where's the instructions, why are there jagged sharp pieces of metal on it. What the hell is this.

What a beautiful and skookum knife. Works perfectly after a bit of sanding and the straighforward assembly. Thanks AvE.

Potential garbage. The finish is not good. The pictures and description are also misleading. I was thinking of returning it and get the copper version but at this point, the knife and the other bronze hammer I got are hard to look at...
