As always, my first priority is to thank all of you. Fiddleback Forge depends on y’all, and we hope you love the tool you buy from us.

I wish I could tell y’all how excited I get over posting the knives that are available for Fiddleback Friday scooping. For one thing, it’s a tough week and the weekend is looming. My body needs that time to heal, and I need the sleep after a week of 4:30 am shifts. The other thing is that I get to watch you folks buy the knives. I love this. Only one thing tops it. The top feeling as a knifemaker is when I get a knife back that has been used a lot and is returned for rejuvenation only to be sent home for more use time. That really makes me happy.

The prices this week are without sheaths. I am lucky enough to work with both Heber Ellsworth and Rick Lowe. Both make fantastic sheaths that are completely different from one another. I appreciate your support for them as well.


All of the steel this week is 3D Spalted 01.

Payment may be made to Paypal, or by personal check or MO. I hold all personal checks until they have cleared. This usually doesn’t cause a delay because they usually clear before shipping day.

Attention!!! The paypal address is: fiddlebackpayments at att dot net. Please describe your purchase in the payment notes.

Shipping is included within the US. We do all our shipping on Thursdays.



The Smaller Knives – I’ve got a runt and a Karda this week. Both with tapered tangs and plain micara scales.

Oh, "as requested" did I snag someones request. I am very eager for an EDC . . . or two, but can forfeit if there was someone specific inline for this one and a chance of getting one myself someday in the future.
