P.S. The knife's blade is so SMooooooooth!

Wow I really like the knife, I have been thinking of making Emile's knife and attaching it to my left high piece.

For size demonstration

That knife is looking great! All that work/sanding is going to pay off when you have a knife that is so smooth it looks like its really made of metal when painted. The helmet is awesome too, looking forward to seeing it finished.
For sanding that indentation in the handle, I would agree with Kadus27 and say that some hand files or needle files would work perfectly for this. They're an indispensable tool for projects like this. You should be able to pick up a set for $10 or less at a local hardware or home improvement store.
Keep up the great work!

Thanks guys! i will definitely go get some needle files today. i do get my drivers license today after all... but i also took the AP US Government Exam this morning for anybody who knows what that is, and that's why i'm not at school. So i'll run up to walmart to get some needls files, and the knife will we sanded to perfection and when it gets molded, hit me up, and i'll send you one

Oh congrats on being able to drive! And my sister definitly knows what you mean, she took the test 2 days ago, been pulling her out up to it too. can't wait to see this knife finished, as well as the EOD since it's my fav helm. This build helps inspire me, and hopefully I can get myself in gear to finish my flaming recon...Thanks guys! i will definitely go get some needle files today. i do get my drivers license today after all... but i also took the AP US Government Exam this morning for anybody who knows what that is, and that's why i'm not at school.

thanks! but i cut on that crease at the bottom of the helmet and stuck the filters through it, then glued from the inside. kinda hard to explain i guess.
yeah it's great! i got an '07 mustang
but i built a H3 recon, and just rondoed it. i may complete it later, but i'm glad i inspire you lol. But can anyone find me a pep file for the Reach CQC helmet? i really like it. not the CQB. but the CQC. thanks 405th.- Status
