Just a friendly reminder these knives are for “Preview” not “Pre-sale”.

I believe today is “Officially” the 46th day of 90+ degree temperatures this Summer. Winter please hurry!!


Mondays glue-up

David has steel in various forms of completion around the Profiling grinder.
I’m sure it makes sense to him.

Whitty from USAMADEBLADE stopped by for lunch and a tour. He was trying to get better understanding of how we do things in order to better serve the customers.
Here he is checking out Allen’s exclusive “cherry bomb” burlap. That’s what I’m calling it anyway.

As always, thanks for taking the time to share.

Here's the deal on the Brisket though - It looks best with black and lime liners. Limes, not lemons, apples (white) or oranges. :-)

The bubbly looking material should be "Everlasting Gobstopper" or "Wonka Burlap"

Congrats on the new band saw!

Annnd finally; Go Hannah!!

I'm excited to see what this material looks like when finished. Bunch of "twigs" stuck together with resin. Pretty awesome.

Great pics, the resin burl hybrids look so nice. Interested to see how the twig scales turn out.

Thanks for taking the time to do these

I'm new and appreciate the quality of your blades and the creativity of your handles. I really like the non wood handles. With that said, I have a wood worker friend who defies wood patterns. He glues up pieces, slices and dices. The result is amazing. If I can get my camera on some of his blocks I'll show you.

Cool. Thank you. I look forward to seeing the pics.
 
I'm excited to see the final product on a few of these! Payday tomorrow too. :D
 
I'm having trouble figuring out what that is... not sure why.

Looks nice though! I want to see the 'twig' one!

Edit: Bushfinger? It must be the angle, the blade looks more narrow than usual.
 
Oh damn..this one fits so well in my collection...just sad i cant shark from a boat
