Happy Birthday ~P.

Happy Birthday Pertinux!

Thanks! I do love my birthday. :)

Well Happy Birthday! Here's hoping there's a nice blue Sylvrfalcen or something of the nature that you'd fancy. :encouragement: :positive:

Well.

So close and yet so far, again! Beautifully swedged, everything but a certain something-something.... :o

This isn't looking like my week; at this point, I should probably start hoping it's my year. :D

I learned about Fiddleback a few weeks ago (I only just got into collecting in the last few months). So then I decided to look into where in the country these beauties are made. To my surprise, Cumming, the same city I live in! So, I immediately bought my first Fiddleback (supporting the local economy is a good excuse right??). Then, I learn that Andy is a legitimate coonass like me (I'm from Baton Rouge). Needless to say, hook line, and sinker. I'll be visiting on Saturday morning for the guild meeting. I'm looking forward to meeting the crew.
 
Whats GST?

Those are Andy's but they seem ok

GST is God Speed Tactical. I assumed that was one of his hanks because he recently used that 'Carpe Noctem' material. I could be wrong though.

it says "POCKET HANKS" on it

edit

these start at $13 and not $25
 
No spalting? Is this pre heat treat? Also what's the middle knife?

correct.
i was getting knives ready for heat treat & noticed there were a couple of the new models. No name yet, but I am calling them the "Neckmuk"

we will see if that sticks or not.

Who does the grinding on the blanks after they have been profiled, drilled and chamfered? Andy?

Also when do the tangs get tapered? Before or after heat treat?
 
Allen and Chris do quick pre heat treated grind. I do all grinding after ht.

Me and chris grind and taper prior to heat treat. I hand them off to Phil to clean up before he gives them back to me to do the heat treat.

Slight clarification :D Allen and I grind all the blades prior to heat treat, I do all the tapers and Allen cleans up the tapers
