  • Rodent Decapitation
    Florida State University Animal Care and Use Program Standard Operating Procedure Rodent Decapitation 1.0 Scope and Application The 2013 AVMA Guidelines for the Euthanasia of Animals states that decapitation is acceptable with conditions if performed correctly and that it may be used when required by experimental design and approved by the IACUC. Decapitation may be accomplished by the use of a commercial guillotine, dedicated scissors, or razor/scalpel blades. Scissors and razor/scalpel blades may only be used for neonatal rodents (< 10 days of age). 2.0 Summary of Method • Training Requirements o The Principal Investigator (PI) must ensure that all personnel using the guillotine are properly trained and proficient in its use. o Personnel wishing to perform decapitation without anesthetics or analgesics must be trained by an LAR veterinarian or ACUC-approved trainer prior to performing procedure. • Preparing for decapitation o The PI and laboratory personnel are responsible for ensuring that the equipment is always in good working condition prior to any use. o Good working condition means that guillotines and dedicated scissors are clean, in good condition, sharp and move freely. The actions should be smooth with no perceptible binding or resistance, and the blades must be rust-free, sharp, and decapitate with minimal force. Razor or scalpel blades should be new. • Decapitation procedure o All personnel performing decapitation must be properly trained. Training must be documented in a laboratory maintained log indicating training date and trainer. ACU personnel are available to provide training if requested. o The decapitation procedure should be performed in an area that is separate from other rodents.

  • Knife Sharpening
    Knife Edge Sharpening & Honing Having a Razor Sharp Edge on Every Knife is the ESSENTIAL First Step for any Leather Crafting. Sharpening = Creating a Beveled Edge Honing = Polishing and Keeping the Edge Sharp Different Blade Angles and Types of Knife Edge for different purposes. These angles are “approximate” and can vary according to the individual preference. This is an End View of 3 Basic Blade Edge Angles that are used for different types of tools.

[1] Introduction This report presents the results of a series of tests done on various aspects of knife sharpening. It is divided into sections devoted to each aspect. Each section terminates with a set of conclusions and a Summary of these conclusions is presented at the end of the report. This work has concentrated on evaluating the effectiveness of various knife sharpening techniques by examining the sharpened edges of the knives in a scanning electron microscope, SEM. Much can be learned by examination of a sharpened knife edge with a magnifying glass or an optical microscope, particularly the binocular microscope. However, the optical microscope suffers from a severe limitation.

TO THE CNC-GRINDING MACHINE It all started at KAINDL with the production of simple emery les in the private garage of Reinhold Reiling, who would later found the company. In the early days he only supplied the jewellery and watch industry based in Pforzheim. After the company was founded in 1972 and his brother Karl Reiling joined, we invented the first usable grinding attachment for drills, the „uni-grinder“. Extremely successful marketing of this tool at trade fairs also presented an opportunity for further dialogue with users. We continually refined and improved our grinding tools by tackling problems systematically. The first step had been taken to creating our first, simple tool grinding devices. These devices were rapidly honed and finally fitted with their own motor. KAINDL‘s first drill bit grinder, BSG 20, was complete. 40 years after we were founded, we now offer more than ten different grinding machines and a wealth of innovative tools.

  • Scout Knife Permit
    SCOUT KNIFE PERMIT Knife Risks • Cuts • Stabbing • Wound Infection Knife Types • Straight Knife . e.g. Bowie Knife, Fish Filleting Knife or Hunting Knife • Simple folding Pocket Knife . e.g. Scout Knife or Jack Knife • Locking Knife . e.g. Lock Back Knife or Locking Front Knife • Swiss Army Knife . e.g. Victorinox or Wegner • Multi-Tools . e.g. Leathermen Knife Materials • Stainless steel is easiest to care for, but can rust if not cared for. Usually stainless steel is more difficult to sharpen well and unless type 303 is not good for producing sparks with a flint for fire starting • Carbon steel can rust, but if well cared for it will develop a patina. Carbon steel is easier to sharpen and often holds a keener edge. Carbon steel is very good at producing sparks with a flint for fire starting Knife Storage • Belt Sheath when possible • Pocket Knife . Jack Knife, Scout Knife, Locking Knife or Swiss Army Knife can be stored in a pocket, but a Belt Sheath is preferable. Never store a folding knife in the open position Knife Use • Never use the blade of a knife as a screwdriver or pry bar . it is a cutting blade and should only be used as a cutting blade • Never use a multi-blade knife or multi-tool with more then one blade/tool or accessory extended • Always fully open and if possible lock the blade/tool or accessory of a folding knife • Ensure that your BLOOD CIRCLE is clear before starting (1 meter circle) • A sharp knife is LESS DANGEROUS then a dull knife • For general knife safety, always cut away from yourself • Use the right tool for the job, a big knife for a big job .

The groups designed the brand. Then the next part of the project was a solo product design project for a product that fits with the brand. The product picked was a high grade steel or ceramic multi- use knife. This was developed with the honest intention to produce an item for a chef’s kitchen with Japanese craftsmanship. The form however developed into a shape that whilst met the brief of a high end kitchen knife, had two flaws. 1. The problem with a multi-use kitchen knife is cross contamination of food. 2. The form was also well suited to combat use. By accident had developed an extremely efficient hand to hand weapon system would work well with natural body flowing movements. The project evaluation stated that this therefore should not continue to a commercial kitchen knife that would be available to the public as too dangerous in the wrong hands, given the current level of youth crime. This is how the university project ended. However an alternative use was found for the research in the form of a prop weapon that could be added to the Merlin’s Armoury portfolio.

  • Knife Safety
    Knife Safety Meeting Objectives To make sure employees fully understand the hazards of knife use both at work and at home as well as how to safely use, sharpen, and maintain knives. Suggested Materials to Have on Hand • Examples of the different types of knives used in your workplace • Examples of knife storage equipment, such as blocks, pouches, and sheaths- whatever is used in your facility • Grinding wheels, stones, or steels used for sharpening in your workplace • Examples of different types of cut-resistant gloves available in your workplace • Written safe work practices for using knives in your workplace Introduction/Overview Knives are important tools that are used in many workplaces as well as for recreation or at home. Knives come in many different forms and each type of knife presents different hazards, although the primary hazard is the sharp blade that can cause deep and severe lacerations. It is important that employees take these hazards seriously and follow safe work practices, including how to safely use, handle, carry, store, sharpen, clean, and maintain the knives they use in the workplace or at home. OSHA Regulations The Occupational Safety and Health Administration does not have specific rules or regulations regarding the use of handheld knives in the workplace. However, OSHA's General Duty Clause requires employers to provide a workplace and work practices that are free of recognized hazards. The use of handheld knives in the workplace is an obvious hazard, so it is important that employees be aware of the hazards as well as safe work practices specific to your company.

  • Knife Sharpening Angles Manufacturer´S Recommendations
    Knife sharpening angles Manufacturer´s recommendations The recommended angle of your knife is often written on the knife’s packaging. If you don’t find it there you can often find it on the manufacturer’s website. Below you’ll find the angle recommendations from some “well-known” knife manufacturers. Please note that despite the fact that the vast majority of knives are dual-bevel, knife manufacturers list their edge angles based on the number of degrees of a single bevel. For example, dual bevel listed as 15 degrees is actually two 15-degree angles, or 30 degrees total. Therefore, all angles in this document is listed as single bevel angles. Cangshan Cangshan knives are sharpened to an Asian-style 16-degree edge. Learn more at their website. Chroma A Chroma knife should be sharpened to 10-20 degrees. Learn more at their website. F. DICK (Friedr. DICK) Dick recommends 15-20 degrees for their DICK Hoof Knives. Learn more at their website. Fischer-Bargoin Fischer-Bargoin recommends an angle of 15-20 degrees.

  • Knife Sharpening: Hints, Tips, and Tricks
    Knife Sharpening: Hints, Tips, and Tricks Making your tools Now, if you have £30-£40 to invest in a set of water stones, plus £20 for a razor strop and £20 for a great chef steel, you can get a razor edge on your knife. I do mean shaving sharp. But what if you haven’t? Well a friend of mine challenged me to get a beaten up Mora to shave for under five pounds. I do love a challenge ! I openly acknowledge that all the ideas shown here have been robbed from a variety of sources - not least Mors Kochanski, however a personal experience may be interesting (and the techiques do work) so heres how I went about it. Total cost to me? About £4 max. You will need….. Three FLAT pieces of wood – around 9” by 4”. Actually anything very flat that you can cut to about that size is great – tiles work well, thick glass is fantastic, sheet metal, whatever) A pack of mixed grade wet & dry paper from the local DIY store (240, 400 & 600 grit or close) A pair of scissors A piece of old inner tube from your firelighting kit (or a bit of old leather or cork or anything non slip) Some glue Some double sided tape (carpet laying tape from the same DIY store is great) Step 1 Cut your boards to size. They need to be the as long as the width of your wet&dry and about 4” wide. You will need 3 of them Step 2 Cut a piece of your first wet&dry to fit your board Step 3 Cover the flattest side of the board in double-sided tape Step 4 Stick the wet&dry onto the tape.
