2 - 52100 EDC's, both are 9 1/8" over all and have 4 1/8" blades. The knives have been hand forged from 1" - 52100 round stock, and heat treated using a carefully temperature controlled furnace. They have been quenched 3 times and tempered 3 times.
Top knife is sabilized Black ash Burl with white spacer material between scales and tang and the lower knife has Ironwood scales with black spacers. Both knives have my traditional 8 nickel/silver pins. Knives come with hand sewn custom fitted leather pouch style sheaths. Price each. $275 + shipping

Thanks for lookin,

Bill

Whow momma, nice knives Bill. Can't beat the price for fully forged 52100 either. Very nice.

Calling Santa....Santa, where are you?
 
Bill, your work is consistently excellent. $275 is a great price for these. I just need to plan ahead a little.

You must have a great source for your wood. Those slabs are beautiful. I particularly like the ash burl.
 
Bill recently made me a pair similar to these and all I can say is wow! They are easily the sharpest knives I own. All top materials used, and his grinds, fit and finish are A++.

In fact, I like them so much Im snatching another blade off his web site :)

Thanks again Bill for the great knives.
 
Now that is what I'm talking about. Nice lines, love the pins, and the handles......oh yea!

thanks for sharing.

Beautiful knives Bill! Gotta love that wood and steel combination...and your forged 52100 cuts like a demon and stays sharp long after some other steels begin to dull.

Anyone who gets one of these will be the owner of a very fine knife by one of the best, friendliest, and most conscientious bladesmiths around. :thumbup:
 
Thanks for the nice comments guys, I truly appreciate them.

It appears my 52100 edc model is losing its popularity. :confused:

Man, I can't stand to read words like that. You're making my CC finger itch. To my eyes, these knivesw look fantastic. The materials used are top-notch. The owners of your knvies report excellent performance. What more needs to be said?
 
I have to agree with Hondo, these are great looking knives. Problem is that I just bought a knife last week and I am waiting for Todd to finish a slippy that I will most likely buy. Otherwise the top one would already be spoken for. Steven
 
Thank you Hondo and oldrifleman for the comments and the encouragement.
Both are still available.

Bill, I've got some handmade knives inbound for November and December. I can commit to buying one of your 52100 EDCs in January. If nobody snaps up that Black Ash Burl one, you can just drop it into a drawer for me. Otherwise, I'd be very happy with one with any kind of wood that has lots of figure to it.

This is great work, and I'll put my money where my mouth is.
 
Thank you Hondo, I'll gladly save it back for you or make another one like it come January. Do you prefer a right or left hand carry sheath.

Thank you,

Bill
 
Don't get the wrong impression. I like to think of myself as a discerning buyer. However, I like everything you do. You've got a knack for choosing really nice pieces of wood for your handles. I'd be pretty happy with anything that has an interesting pattern. I like box elder burl and curly maple too.

I'd prefer a high-ride right-handed sheath.
 
Bill,

I wouldn't say they are losing their appeal. I just picked up one of yours in Koa wood. It's a great knife - to look at and to use. I should pick up another one. Hmmm. Thinking, thinking.
 
I just suggested to Bill that I could set up a direct deposit to his account. The money gets transferred each month, and I get a new knife once a year.
 
Thank you for the great comments everyone.

Steelhed, thank you for the feedback. They do feel great in the hand don't they, and 52100 is a fantastic steel, cuts, cuts and cuts great and resharpens easily. Thats why I've been using it for about 9 yrs. I love it.

Thanks all,

Bill
