5th Annual: Help Us Build a Buck: Fixed Blade (Giveaway)

[skblades]

It's been a roller coaster... Here's where you broke my heart and said it wouldn't be FFG. Or perhaps I misunderstood.

Glad to see it's FFG regardless!!

Oh yeah, I stated in incorrectly there. I should have written sabre grind, which is where the issues were....

I'm hoping to have these in house in November, so we'll do the pre-order then. And yes, that is the sheath! Made by a custom sheath company here in Post Falls.

Looks awesome!! Any idea on expected price so can plan accordingly for pre-order? Thanks for all the work on this!

And a money shot!

That’s a great looking setup there! Real outdoorsy, Yet classy enough for carving a turkey for thanksgiving. I think I better get one.

 

[jmgruber]

$160 if the price is still the same from Instagram post

Not a bad looking knife.

I like simple.

I know chances are slim, but your remark on the custom sheath company gave me a sliver of hope, so I'm gonna try anyway: Any chance a sheath for left-handed people would be an option? Willing to pay a bit extra for it, even.

Well I have good news and bad news for you. Good news is that it shouldn't be hard for us to snag a handful of left handed sheaths from the maker. The maybe bad news is the you'll have to buy the knife with the righty, and add on the left handed sheath. Looks like price out for that add on would be $25.

That looks real good.

Actually, that sounds like a pretty fair deal to me. And if I ever needed to resell the knife, having the right hand sheath wouldnt hurt.

So would it be better to get the left handed at time of purchase or decide later?

 

[Ernie1980]

Those turned out very nice! I am ready to bring one home

You'll probably want to grab one at purchase.

 

[PirateSeulb]

I am a lefty but haven’t carried a fixed so not sure if I will need a left hand carry or not

 

[koreamarine]

How will we know when these are ready for pre-order?

Thanks, my friend! I just did that.
Thanks for being a great citizen!

 

[Fixall]

I was hoping today would be the day, I'm excited for this one!

Hunting season is closing in on us here in MI...
There's no internet, barely phone service where I go......one of the reasons I like going there.

Any idea when pre-order is going to take place?

I'm doing my best to make sure this gets up tomorrow. Just back from Washington DC today so I'm a bit behind!

 

[GPyro]

Sweet.
I think this will sell well and don't want to miss out.

We really do appreciate your efforts!
Thanks.
