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




This “BTS” started last Friday. Allen made us some walnut “cubbies” to hang our stuff

Im not sure if the Egyptians would be proud or not. Chris’s anvil is quite heavy.

Memory is fuzzy if I've seen BLJ this stretched out. Is this a Tall Bow Legged Joe?



Nice Cubbies by Allen :-)

Is Chris ever going to use that BAA or just keep carrying it around? lol

Possibly a Bow Legged Belt Knife??

@Phillip: Those two bottom Bushfingers out of three (photo) look like they might be 3/32" steel? The black bolstered sapphire burlap handled Hunter is looking good... :thumbup: Is that one 1/8" SFT?

Every week now... I look forward to a new picture of Ivy. She really is a fine looking Frenchie. I wonder if either of her "Dame" or "Sire" were champions?

I think you are right. I will have to double check tomorrow when I am back on the shop.


I almost forgot one this week, I had to edit my post and add her in.
One more for good measure. I'm not playing "favorites", Oscar does not always come to the shop

Not that you haven't had way many assistants, once I fell into the rabbit hole here.

She would probably prefer (as would I) black and white stripes but I had to give her a bit of ribbing.

Well, since you asked: I prefer natural liners and pins as a default, but of course that doesn't go with Everything the way black does.

[So far, plain natural or natural with white is probably my favorite combo, but it really depends on the knife. But, black goes with Everything, natural not always.]

This looks super fly:

I often wonder if I shouldnt'a grabbed it, but the excess of yellow Space Vomit at the end of the handle threw me off. Otherwise? There's nothing not to love, in how that knife is kitted out. :thumbup:

I'm thinking some of the wood pictured above will also present like this once finished:
