I had them wrapped up and then remembered I hadn't taken their pictures. No going back, forward only.

What if I offered to take $30,000 right now and ship the whole pelican case full of knives tomorrow?! Any takers??? (Posted by Andy)

Sorely tempted

The green G10 Bushcrafter? looks superb, in fact they all look good.

The more I use these knives... the more my obsession grows..

That batch is just stunning.

HWF · Jun 4, 2014

How does Andy sharpen his knives? Whetstones?

trestle · Jun 6, 2014

Is that a guardless EDC II with natural canvas micarta?

Please make more guardless versions of all your models!!

Sand paper on top of a strop.

That seems like it would take a long time. He does all of the knives he sells this way?

emoney2277 · Jun 6, 2014

How did that wire burr come about? On the grinder?

willic · Jun 7, 2014

I was wondering myself about the wire curly.... I wanna hear a story! All I can figure is that is the edge remains from the last pass on the grinder.... hmmmm.......

Yes, they are all done this way. Monday mornings is when I do all of the stropping and the wire bur is from stropping on the 40micron belt by hand. Pops off when we go to the leather strop.

Shaving Sharp. Great table Allen enjoyed our conversations, look forward to seeing what you create!

VANCE · Jun 8, 2014

well phooey

i showed up early today & saw about 15 fiddlebacks on the table.
i had something to give to andy but he wasnt there yet. the wife & i walked around for about 30 45mins & came back & his table was cleared...

im not sure how many cuss words i said but it was more than 5

as it turns out they had already been sold & should not have been placed out

oh well... there is always fridays & tuesdays now for little Ben

i did manage to score this knife from Judy @ 40POINT & managed to meet MISTWALKER
