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

Here we have Allen showing Cubby and Kyle what not to do. We call this a “training moment”

David “lost” his bog oak push stick so he had to make another one.

Several people have been inquiring about this knife since it’s original appearance in a BTS thread. I got Andy to shape it this week.
It will be available during Fiddleback Friday.

Fine on the knives, how much for the pooch? :-)


Is that orange a tangerine or electric orange? Nice looking batch. Thanks for sharing!

Ivy is Priceless!


Im not sure which knives you are referring to. There is alot of natural canvas pictured
 
Phillip showed me that jade blue BSS after glue up during a shop visit back in July (~Friday 7/15).

That knife has been waiting in the holding box for almost 3 months for Andy to do the final handle shaping. I'm a fan of that pattern... I think they have great handle ergonomics. I'm pretty sure this one also has 5/32" steel vs. 3/16" like some of the others that are out there.

I don't think I'll be "sharking" come Friday... But the "blood lust" for that pretty translucent blue beauty might just push me over the edge. :D

Looks like a lemon drop jade fighter is in the works too.
 
I see my knife in those pics. Guess I'm feeling a little over confident after getting my first Friday Fiddleback last
week. Btw, those blades look awesome

Nice BBS. It looks like a "Kirkwood Special" to me. ;)

Looks like some nice burlap combos too. Thanks for the preview!

My thoughts exactly & thanks for the preview.

BTW is that Ruby recluse hollow ground or just the camera angle?
