Batch Done 9/22/10

[Fiddleback]

I'm real excited about a few of the knives in this batch. Some new models, and some regulars that really came out fine.

First up is the new Camp Knife. Its got a 7" blade, and a 5.5" handle. They're made from 01 steel thats 5/32" thick and 2" wide. Full height convex grinds are thin demons. These have tapered tangs. One has stabalized Ash crotch with natural canvas liner, pins and bullseye filler, and the other is a base price model with natural canvas micarta and black pins and bullseye. These two are available. I will have to make a sheath for them. Leather will cost, micarta will be more affordable. $350 for the micarta knife, and $375 for the stabalized Ash beauty.









Also, the first of the bigger Choppers is ready. Its got Shadetree burlap and black pins and bullseye filler. Its 2" wide, 15" long, 5.5" handle, 5/32" thick 01 steel. This one may, or may not be sold.







Check out this pretty Recluse. 5/32" thick 01 and tapered tang.

Andy i will take the Big blade with the Ash and the Terrasure with Scandi grind/penertrator tip

Also seconds on your big chopper if the sale falls through.

[euroross]

pm sent on the snubnose.

[Fiddleback]

Spf on those then. Thanks guys.

I think the hunter and ladyfinger are mine Now I will have to wait for shipping, it takes at least 2 weeks to get past customs into Canada.

[Fiddleback]

Great to see you. Have you done any work with the materials you bought at BS? Why not post pics of your work here?!

[Md 25v]

Andy-
I know you don't take orders so.... got any more hunters coming up?

[Duzzy]

Any 14" machetes coming up? Preferably in wood handles?

[Guyon]

Check out this pretty Recluse. 5/32" thick 01 and tapered tang.

I also really like the Terrasaur, the Nessmuk, and the Karda.

[quick kill]

Grate looking knives. Was that the whole batch or just a few?

[forgedblades]

The only one I have finished and still here is this one. And yes I need a better Camera, this one sucks.

The knife is 9 1/2" total 5 1/8' blade 3 1/16 thick with black g-10 and stainless pins.

How is this looking for knife #4?

P.S. what wood is on that Recluse?

[Md 25v]

How is this looking for knife #4?

Great job!
If that's only your 4th knife than I really look forward to your future as a knife maker.

[forgedblades]

Thanks, But that does not include the ones in the junk pail,the ones that are half done but not quite up to par, and the spyderco mules that I have handled.

[Guyon]

Andy, I believe I'm going to have to have that 3 Finger Karda as well. Please mark it as sold. PM/email sent.
