Fiddleback Forge Comparison Photos Round Two (PIC Heavy)

[maw]

Ah, thanks! I didn't realize you had a Kephart. I was just telling Andy how I really liked the blade profile of his Kephart design a lot and much better than other some versions out there. I know exactly what you mean, I use that cutting method quite a bit myself especially when carving on spindles for bow drill sets. The hunter is more of a stretch than the Hiking Buddy, but the Hunter is big enough to do more of the heavier work more easily so it's a trade off.

Hi Brian,

That was a beautiful illustration of tradeoffs between the Hikingbuddy and the Hunter and very much true.

I have photos of the Kephart and Arete and the Arete, Kephart, and Bushfinger side-by-side in my "Fiddleback Forge Comparison Photos Round Three (PIC Heavy)" thread here on this forum. I hope you find it useful. The link is shown below.

Of the Terrasaur and Kephart, which do you like most or find a better design?

From your photos it looks like the Kephart is going to fall somewhere between the two and that should be a great size.

I really like them both, but of late I have taken to the Arete and the Kephart.
