Hi folks -

The sun was out and it was beautiful here today, so I took some pictures of recently acquired knives, including my JK Modified Wharncliffe.

This example is 1" longer than the standard design, and I asked that it be made with 1/16" 01 stock.

The intent for this knife is to be our go-to kitchen knife, and it has so far been the knife we grab when we are in need of a cutting tool in the kitchen. In fact, this knife has forced our beloved Riverwoods Companion out of the knife-block and back into the drawer with all of it's cousins.

Here are some of the pictures - and also included are pictures of the beautiful Buck 112 two dot that John rescaled for me.

Maggie using the knife to cut up a rotisserie chicken. It is a heck of a slicer for soft material like chicken and meats AND hard material like carrots.

Outdoor shots with a decidedly "green" theme. ;^)

You can see the patina the knife is developing in this shot -

I put my Tilt in the picture, since it was with me anyway...

Just for fun - here it is next to my new Buck 651 Pigsticker Intruder. Now that is a big Buck!

And finally, I wanted to try to capture the beautiful "purple-ly" patina that the Wharncliffe is taking on.

Thanks for looking!

Now I have to change the oil in my truck to get ready for the trip up north next weekend, and then I can start draining that bottle of Jack. :D

best regards -

That's pretty awesome! Kind of reminds me of the spey point on my jackknife but much, much, much bigger! :P
 
great pictures, that 1/16 looks like it slices...like a knife i guess, i need a better analogy.
 
That is a great! I really like thin steel. I did not know John had 1/16 steel, but I guess I never asked. Good to know!
 
That is a beautiful knife! Absolutely gorgeous! If you don't mind me asking, what did one of these beauties cost you?
