Creating this as a separate thread as well for greater visibility.
It's kind of a weird point for activity right now. I still have a few MagnaCut orders from last year outstanding after the heat treatment bottle neck, but awaiting some replies on them before I dig into them. I got one reply just now, so will be starting that one, as it is now priority number one, given the wait the gentleman has endured.
And then it will be back to Lucky Dog and Empire Outfitters until they are done. Lucky Dog technically has second place to Empire, since that order came first, but due to an unexpected black Suretouch shortage, I have ended up starting Empire a little later than expected, which is why I have gotten ahead a bit on Lucky Dog.
Now I have managed to find some some grey and black which Craig has approved using for however many Mini Insomniacs I can and black G10 for the rest - although since that communication I managed to find a couple partial sheets of black Suretouch that my Canadian knife maker supply guy was using for his own knives, which he agreed to send me. So all that is on the way now, which means as soon as I finish the MagnaCut knife I heard back on options for tonight, I will be pausing the Lucky Dog project to grind Empire's Mini Insomniacs, so I can have them ready for handles when the material arrives. Then finish building those, ship 'em, and back to Lucky Dog, inserting the remaining few outstanding MagnaCut orders whenever the replies come back on those.
And then back to the Multialloy run, including Hudson Bays, Wharnanimouses (Wharnanimeese/Wharnanimi), Filets, etc, starting with the ones deposits had been paid on, whereupon the projected completion date I gave of "By or Before Fall 2024" still holds true.
