I love working tools but that design you have there, Lorien , just screams "BUY ME!" at me. Some HSLD stuff there bud.

 

[Hard Knocks]

Are you set on the index finger notch for this one Lorien?

 

[Drpl]

very intrigued
what is going to be the biggest difference vs FK1?

Not a big fan of pronounced notches on handles scales TBT.

Will be gone.

Damn I'd be keen, lost hope in picking up a second hand FK 1.0.

What are all the steel options for this? Elmax or another tough stainless would be a coo addition to d3vl! Did you say 80crv2?!

 

[ATJ999]

I would take one in Elmax and one in D3V!

D3V is king. The only option at the moment unless you get someone to sell an optimized D2 version.

 

[Lorien]

just received the materials for the prototype today!



waiting on a little feedback from the man in the big pants before I get going.

And, a note; this has been said multiple times, but the materials I'm using to build this things ARE NOT reflective of what CPK will use for the final product

 

[argyle1812]

Is this going to be the same size as the original?

 

[Wood5045]

I don't recall actual spec's being mentioned as this is still in the design pahse. If you scroll back to page-3 of this thread, Nathan and Lorien talk about the concept. I like how it's shaping up so far

 

[JustinFournier]

Black linen and 80CRV2. Niceeeeee

3/8" linen micarta will provide a lot of material to work with, and although I ordered 3/16" steel I will be getting it machined down to around .15- .16", which will provide a handle with a minumum thickness of 1/2"

some general changes to the sketch I posted are; a slightly less 'locked in' handle design, more belly and a wider blade. This will be a great general purpose cutter, and by that I mean you'll be able to cut your food with it, as well as a number of other things.

the blade is around 4.25" and the handle very slightly longer than that

Here ya go

^ I knew right off the bat as to which part of the future CPK knife that rendering is from, as do probably 20 of the other regulars
