Hey guys. I have five knives available this week. The blade show batch is complete. Next week will just add #'s to the stock, and the following is for cleanup details, and show prep. Thats when the pics will really start to flow. Next week is big. Comp Cutter, Camp Knife, 2 Recluses, 3 Bushcrafters, 3 Bushfingers, KE Bushies, etc. Today I finished all the curley cues. A Comp Cutter and Camp knife hand rubbed. I'm so ready for this show.

This is the five knives from this batch that are available. Two Scandi'd Bushfingers, a convex Bushcrafter, a Scandi Arete and the new Karda. The Karda is a re-design. I widened the tang so it 'll hold a bullseye tube.

The green Bushfinger is on 1/8" 3D Spalted 01 with Scandi. The handle is Emerald Burlap over nat can micarta with an orange pinstripe. $295 shipped US with Heber sheath.

I think the new Karda is a beauty. This one is Scandi on 3/32 3D Spalted 01 steel with natural canvas. $160 shipped US with Kydex.

More pics to come next week about the show guys. Thanks for your support!
 
Nice batch! Got to save some money for blade!! See you in a couple weeks!
 
Very nice work indeed Andy. Regarding next week's batch, are any of those going to be for sale here on the web or are they all for the Blade Show?

Next weeks batch will go to the show. There won't be time to shp it.
 
Looking good Andy. Show me a convex bushcrafter in coco with black and orange spacers. I'll love you forever. Or until the bug bites
again . lol

Thank you for the reply Andy. Can you give us an idea of how many knives you will be taking to the show? IIRC, last count was around 50.

Thank you kindly.

Give him a minute man - he is building up for blade show - and it has only been an hour... sheesh. ;)

If it is like his stock Karda it is 6.5" long with a 3 inch blade.




Andy - that damned Arete makes me want ANOTHER one. Sheesh..... ;)

I believe the karda is around 6-1/2" long and the blade being around 2-1/2" or3" something along those lines.
I'm sure Andy will chime in with the exact measurements. That is a sweet little knife and the one i was admiring also.
Nice job on this batch Andy.

I was just kidding - but I know I leave my computer open on BF - and so it shows online when I am out in the garage. ;)

I'll bet that garage smells better than a boot store! :D ;)

Nice batch, yet again! Can't wait to see some more black over nat with orangie goodies, after Blade, of course.

Andy,

I will take that Arete for sure! (I am so excited) ;-) ...I am not familiar with the purchase process so I'll dig around and also PM you. I can paypal the funds tonight.

BTW, I do not want to be selfish so I will not ask for another of the batch (those scandi bushfingers are mighty nice too). If no takers by this weekend I'll throw my name in.

Thanks and happy selling at the blade show!

Nice score on the Arete Woody. When I saw the Arete in this batch I knew it was right up your alley. This based on the interest you showed in your previous thread and questions thereof. Enjoy. :)

I have one in the Blade Show batch with coco over black but a blue liner. Very pretty too.
