these are going to be the standard pinout..all our knives are drilled for the trinity

10-4, thanks for the clarification

Whoever gets the one on the far left is going to get an extra light and nimble one!

Is there a Gaucho pic thread? I’d love to start drooling over some pics

+1 on high grind & fat grip!!

The senior members of the tribe have spoken. High grinds rock on kitchen type knives. Plus, it makes the stainless AEB-L look more custom or handmade without the boring mill finished flats showing.

My thoughts exactly!!

Light weight, thin and a good slicer is all I care about. Give me the stock handle.

Unfortunately, the group buy closed last Monday.
Sorry about that.

crazy holes rectified....we call that a "teaching" moment

UPDATE...here is where we stand as of right now...
Andy & Allen have all sorts of stuff going on with their kid's end of the school year functions so we've had to swap around our days these week.
these 4 are set to glue up tomorrow

these scales are for the last 3 in A2 to be glued up

these scales are for the AEB-L knives.

The AEB-L knives should be heat treated today or tomorrow.

Since the black G10 was an impromptu last minute addition I'm still waiting on the material. Once it arrives it will take no time at all since they are (COMMANDO)

 

[wildmanh]

Thanks for the updates! Take your time. Cool pictures.

Nice, thanks for sharing all these progress pics!

Will those grind lines be going any higher? Just curious.

thanks & yes
the height of the pre-heat treat grinds are determined by the type & thickness of the steel.

[wildmanh]

These are coming along nicely!
