11" Shiv, Pig sticker, Abdominal Ventilation Device.

That is a masterpiece, well done Nathan/Mark/Jo and the rest of the crew. Of course I am very biased therefore I really wish that Eric. S. ends up with it (E if you have a chance at it at all, please don't whiff at it!). Otherwise have lotsa fun you guys, it's been a heckuva ride with CPK in these past 6+ years. The very BESTEST little knife co on Earth!

ETA: seem that I can’t even add up right! It’s been 7 years already! Aren’t we supposed to get some sorta itch around this time period? Asking for a friend!

Ooof! That is a thing of beauty. I have so much want, and so little way to satisfy that want. I love seeing the one-off pieces you make Nathan/Mark. Someday, I hope to have the free cash to actually grab one for myself.

This started life as a 12-inch Behemother chopper. The thickest, heaviest and (other than the K18) the most powerful chopper in our lineup.

And by the time we were done with it we had infused it with enough anti-gravity and unicorn fur but it has become an impossibly light and lively fighter. This big girl is so perfectly balanced that, even though it is down to only 20.7 oz it feels even lighter than that in the hand. You have to hold this knife to appreciate it.

It is an idea that we have been kicking around for years and Mark and I finally made time and got it done. It started out as a fun Friday project but turned into a fun weekend project.

Lots of little details went into this one to make it handle correctly. We have distal taper, we reworked the blade shape including dropping the entire spine, and Mark applied some deep hollow grinds. I rounded the spine and reworked the guard and choil and applied the most perfect hand applied chamfer to the spine. Blade length is a little over 11", total length a little over 17". Sharpened 20 DPS and fendishly sharp. Delta 3V.

Come play with it at our table at the Atlanta Blade Show this Friday.

$1500

Please be aware that all blade show sales are cash only. No PayPal, no credit cards etc. Please and thank you.

We also have about a dozen other specialty pieces although none as elaborate as this one.

None of my business really, but may I suggest you have a couple of good photos taken before it's gone ?
 
Cash only…what does that do for your stress level? Oof. I hate walking around with even $200 on me.

At least it’s much lighter than knives…even a suitcase full of 20’s. You should be much lighter on the return trip!

Have a great show Nate.
