Bushcraft Knife challenge - Interest?

[tonym]

Scott's knife is sweet. I am finding it really hard not to use it as I wait for the rest of the knives.

Knifemakers, if your knife is finished and you want to send it in early, shoot me a pm or email.

Thanks,

Tony

Glad this thread caught a bounce upwards- I was jonesing for this contest and knives.

I just got a fiddleback yesturday and might have to get it out with my favorite 4" blade- my Howling Rat.

Well, I was finished but I had to sell it because I needed the money. No problem, I'll make another one soon.

I'll have my knife finished within the next week or so. I will be sure to send you an e-mail as soon as it's done.

Tony you are my new hero man! You guys are gonna have fun with all that steel.

first two not done yet, but getting closer. next 2 being glued up this weekend. I have to figure out which handle I like best!

 

[CUTS LIKE A KRIS]

Hopefully I'll get mine done- I have to fit the handle, sharpen, put finish on the blade and sheath- as long as the kids sleep better than they have been lately I should get some time in the basement. The other entries look great guys!

I was hoping you were going to enter. Can't wait to see what you can throw into the mix. :thumbup:

This is the style of the one I'll be sending. I'll make up another one to send though, this one was a test knife.

If anyone is interested I did a test video on the knife. I'm diggin' it so far.

There looks to be some pretty stiff competition in this one so I wanted to make sure I was sending a proven design.

Good to see you made it Mark. I was hoping you could find time.

Wow! Now that's a bush knife! I'm glad you can make it for the challenge.

The knife Iz built to test is awesome. I got to play with it a bit the other day. Its super comfy and is very nicely made. That pommel is cool.

Sweet knife, awesome vid!! Love the grind and the shape of that blade. What is the song in your vid?

I'll be hardening my blade on Monday. Trying to get a new computer on line. Once I get away from this antiquated operating system (Windows 98) I should be able to post some pictures.

Lol, Mike. I'm looking forward to seeing what you guys think of it.

Thanks, Grunt.
The specs are:
Blade length @ 4 7/8"
Blade height at it's widest @ 1"
Handle length @ 4 1/4"

Thanks, J.
We'll take it down to the bottoms sometime and you can use it some more if you want.

Sweet knife, awesome vid!! Love the grind and the shape of that blade. What is the song in your vid?

Thanks, Night.
The first song is the best song ever made. It's "Green River" by CCr.
Second song is "We die young" by Alice in Chains.
Third song is "Stone the crow" by Down


Thanks, everybody. I'm looking forward to the competition.
