got a green webbing belt surplus to requirements, extends to 46 inch waist, open to offers or swaps, W.H.Y. send me a p.m. if interested.

Is it a 58 pattern one ?

yes I believe it is.

Cheers for the belt BP. As with all the Smith & Wesson knives, that'll need sharpening. I re-profiled the blade on mine. I bought a bench grinder the other week, going to get some 01 tool steel in and have a go at making my own from scratch. If it's not a complete abortion then you may see BeardyMan knives soon

Be careful with bench grinders and knives. I was making a knife once and ended up with a toothpick. It was a handy solid toothpick though and ended up being quite useful. Being small though I lost it when I moved house.

I generally use a lump of carborundum stone for sharpening my knives, works a treat.
