Excellent: Diamond J Knives (photo added)

[Rick]

Diamond J delivers a knife that keeps you asking yourself "how the heck can they sell a package like this for such a ridiculously low price?" Perfectly ground, differentially heat-treated and razor sharp with a nice crisp temper line, a hand-rubbed and etched finish, excellent ergos and a versatile, solidly-built reversible sheath, this is everything I've been looking for in a no nonsense fixed-blade for hiking and camping.

Dan is great at keeping the communication channel open, he ships quickly (the package arrived overnight) and best of all, he knows how to build a great looking solid working knife for a more-than-fair price.

Check out Diamond J's work at their website and the Maker's Fixed Blade board here at the BF Exchange. Highly recommended!

Today's outdoor EDCs: DJK "Eurydice" and a little 3" GEC carver to show the scale, both in 1095.

Dan and Marce make excellent knives at very attractive prices!!! There sheaths are also very sweet!! They are great to work with and have no problem trying to make a design for you. They made 2 for me and they are amazing quality, so excellent they are working on a third one!! I should post a few pics of them, they are nice. I would also highly recommend them, I have posted that quite a few times. By the way Rick your girl there is very sexy!!

Thanks! I have to admit, my wife has become a bit jealous of the new hottie in our house.

Please feel free to post some pics of your DJKs.

Nice pair! Some very creative design work there, and great sheath work, too.

Are the handles purple heart?

 

[JDieseljoe69]

Yes the handles are purple heart. The big one has a 9" blade and the small one is 2 1/2" blade. They are doing a sub hilt knife for me now with a 7" recurve blade and carbon fiber handles and mosaic pins. I can not wait to see it when its done!!
