    Christmas Presents

    My son likes to cook so I made him some kitchen knives for a Christmas present. I also made him a sharpener that uses wet&dry sandpaper so he can keep the bevel angles accurate and the knives sharp. The handles are made out of cherry and the blade steel is 15n20 which makes great chef knives.

    Loading for the m57 tokarev.

    I am new to this forum. Hello to all. I have read everything I can find on loading for the 7.62x25 mm tokarev. I realize I need to seat and crimp in two stages.
