Gentlemen:
Im a big fan of the sheepsfoot blade as a work knife or EDC ..nothing cuts like it and theres all different ways to hold the knife with this style. Im having trouble giving this design a snappy name so Im putting up the user grade knife in 3V up for grabs. Submit your idea in this thread and if my panel of judges (wife, son, and daughter-in-kaw) select your name for the knife, you get the 3V knife for free. Anyone can enter, however there are just a few rules: No sexually explicit names will be considered you want your wife or girl to order one for you dont you?! Your submittal should be original and not named after an existing knife. The final rule is that the winner can do as he pleases with the knife, i.e., keep it, give it away, or sell it because its his knife once he takes possession of it. I would like this exercise to be fun and to thank the BF members that have been so kind to me. The User Grade has a small ding on the flat on the obverse side - it happened when my Dremel skipped across the table - it's minor and free of charge.
I plan on selling future versions of the user grade in D-2 or 3V for about $165 while the Presentation Grade version in W-2 and hamon will sell for $265. The Presentation Grade model shown here with Desert Ironwood burl scales and red liners is for sale. The handle is sized for four finger use with thumb grooves on the spine, plus, the knife can be held with the back three fingers and index finger on the forward set of serrations. The sheath I designed for this knife can be worn right, left, cross-draw or behind the back. A very useful EDC I think, and distinctive looking. I hope you like it! The first Ill take it gets it. $265 plus $15 shipping.SOLD Paypal payment preferred to my account tksteingass@frontier.com. I'll let this ride a few days and when the winner is selected, I'll revise the title to say Winner Selected. Heres the specs, and, lets have a little fun.
