What is a swedge grind blade and how does this differ from other grind types?
A knife with a sedge grind has a sharp edge on the spine of the blade as well as the belly. Usually, it extends from the tip of the blade a shorter distance than the belly grind, e.g. 1/3 to 1/2 way up the blade. It differs from a dagger or snee in that the belly and spine are not symmetrical.
How do you open the hood when the cable is stretched on a 2003 Saturn Vue?
Try pulling a screw driver in the gap of the hood release handle. It should help take out some of the slack. You will still need to push down on the hood to release it. Most likely the tension spring is shot and therefore needs to be replaced or you can take some of the slack out buy using a wire swedge.
How do you replace the headlight bulb located on a 2000 Toyota Celica GTS?
There are two sockets for a 2000 Celica. The top halogen bulb is for the low beam. The bottom halogen bulb is for the high beam. This vehicle uses both bulbs lit together to generate the "high" beams. Warning... Touching a bulb with your hand drastically shortens the life of the bulb. Halogen bulbs get extremely hot. They can generate second and third degree burns very quickly. Be extremely careful to avoid touching the bulb by accident. I will walk you through the low beam replacement on the DRIVERS side. 1; Disconnect the electrical plug on the rear of the bulb. Simply pull the wire harness plug straight back. 2; Remove the round rubber protector that surrounds the bulb in its housing. 3; Securing the bulb assembly in its housing is a stainless steel spring clip. To release the clip you must press the end towards the front portion of the vehicle, and then push it up. The clip is captive in place by a Phillip's screw. Once the clip is released the specially designed base along with the bulb will easily be removed. 4; Pull the burned out bulb off of it's base and discard it. 5; Remove the new bulb from it's packaging with either a clean glove or a paper towel. Install it into the special base. Human body oils must not be left on the bulb. 6; Reinstall the base and bulb assembly back into the head light housing. It will only fit correctly one way. Rotate the bulb and base unit until it seats in place. The metal prongs for the wire harness should be side by side NOT one over the other. 7; Re install the stainless steel spring clip. This is a bit difficult do to the fact you have limited space to work. It is the opposite of the removal process. Push the clip forward and then down into it's notch. 8; Re install the rubber boot. It has one tab which is labeled "Top". 9; Re install the wire harness on the metal tabs and test your work. The PASSENGER side head light assembly is underneath a plastic cover. The cover must be removed before you can service the head light bulbs. The cover is held in place by plastic rivets. To remove the rivets you must gently push the center swedge pin through each rivet. Caution must be taken to capture the swedge pin of each rivet. After pushing the swedge pin through the rivet can be removed. These rivets must be saved for re installation. To re install simply replace the plastic cover, line up the cover with the holes. Place the rivet in the hole and then install the center swedging pin. The High beam bulb is not held in place with a spring clip. It does not have a protective rubber boot either. To remove either the drivers side or the passengers side high beam bulb simply grab the wire harness and twist it counter clockwise. The bulb assembly will remain attached to its wire harness. Remove the burned out bulb. Install the new bulb. Insert bulb assembly into the headlight housing. It will only line up one way. Gently twist the assembly until you feel it settle into place. Then continue to turn it clockwise until you feel it lock in place. Test your work.
What are the parts of a knife?
There are many different parts of a knife. The main ones are here: Back spacer-the material that holds the two sections of the handle together in a folder. Belly-edge curve or arc. The greater the belly, the better you can make sweeping cuts necessary for skinning. In a combat knife, it changes the angle of attack from a chopping cut to a slashing movement. Choil-the unsharpened part of the blade where it meets the handle; many knives have a choil designed to accept the index finger so you can choke down on the blade and have better control. Some makers assert that choils are to avoid ragged indentations at the grind termination when resharpening. Either way, it's for your benefit. Fuller-more commonly known as a blood groove, this hollowed out strip reduces weight without removing strength from the blade. Jimping-notched sections on any part of the knife used for enhancing grip. Quillon-pronounced "key own" (it's French), these are the extensions from the handle that protect your hands from moving down on the blade. Recurve-a sweeping blade edge in an S shape, used for extending the length of the cutting edge, improve slicing, or just for visual effect. This is more difficult to sharpen in the field since you need rods. Scales-the handle sections attached to the tang of a full-tang knife or to the back spacer of a folder. Skeletonized-some pieces of the handle material are taken out to make the knife lighter. Spine-the back of the blade. Swage/swedge-often called a false edge, this taper or bevel on the spine near the blade tip reduces weight and thickness of the blade and if sharpened, produces an extra cutting edge for enhanced penetration. Often seen on fighting knives. Tang-how far the knife blade extends into the handle; the two types are partial or full. Full tang is generally stronger. Thumb rise-also called a ramp or rest, this area at the place where the handle and blade meet allows the user to apply thumb pressure and exert greater control over the knife.
