Customising Fallkniven's TK6 Part 1




The deed is done!

I've had my TK6 for quite a while now and I've loved every minute of it. The blade is chunky without geting in the way, the steel holds an edge like a Lightsabre, it's worked its way though a lowland Roe deer like Luke Skywalker through a Tauntaun,  but you know how it is, I've always wanted to pimp one.

More news on this one as materials arrive and time permits

    Er yes this project has been on the shelf for way too long I'll be throwing some money at it to get it moving. The TK6 is my favorite Fallkniven.

    Do you think the TK6 would be a good EDC knife? even if it isn't gonna see some game prossesing? either way it's Sweet!

    Yes its feels a lot thinner in the blade than the F1 which is a fantastic survival knife but not my first choice of all-rounder.

    I took the TK6 on a fishing trip and used it for everything [apart from processing fish], chopped wood, skinned road kill and prepared food, great knife. I've had to change my plans for the customisation that's kept it in a drawer, but it'll be my go-to knife as soon as it's finished

    SBW, I've just signed on, loving your blog.
    Did you ever get round to finishing this?
    How do you think the S1 stacks up against the TK6?

    Er humm yes. I'm ashamed to say that I carried it around wrapped in tape for a few years. I saw the parts I collected to remake it, only the other day I will get it done.

Please feel free to leave comments. I really enjoy hearing what readers think. The rules are the same as round my dinner table:

You're welcome to disagree, life would be way too boring if we all agreed with each other and we'd never learn anything.
I like to think that we're all grown up enough to argue every last point, right down to the bone, without bearing a grudge afterwards.



Come on in the waters lovely
