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.

Happy Friday to you all. Ths week I have a bunch of fine cutlery for your perusal. I put all the Scandi’s together in one pic, then moved to the convex knives.

Thank you all for the support. My family depends on y’all.

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 Scandi Knives. The knives at the top of the pic are 1/8” thick and the two at the bottom of the pic are 3/32” thick. All of these are skeletonized full thickness tang knives.

Gorgeous Hunters and Bushfingers. Nice to see skeletonized tangs on the Bushies (the lack of one is probably the only thing I'd change on my S35VN one)
 
Ouch...hate to see a miss that close.

I'm 50/50 on grabbing that osage bushcrafter. I swear to god wanted one in scandi to match the hiking buddy and muk camp knife I just bought but I was hoping for orange liners.

Something in Maroon linen next week, Andy? I'd buy a Duke in Maroon in 2 seconds flat.
 
I'll take the

Very nice sir. Between these and the ones just posted on KSF recently you really knocked it out of the park this week!!! That Sneaky Pete! If I could only find a good reason that I really needed it. . .
 
So......is the terrasaur available?? Lol!

That model has been flying under the radar. But it is sure sweet.

Excellent work again.
 
Sweet batch Andy! That Sneaky Pete looks awesome! Love the look of that pine cone, though admittedly I need somebody to bring me up to speed on the pine cones stuff...
Those Bushfingers look stunning, and that fighter looks wicked.
 
4ths (or is it 5ths?) on the Terrasaur LOL

Great batch Andy.
 
I'll take the Terra...nah, I'll take nothing!

Can't wait for last week's to come anyway ;)

How much weight in steel is removed on those skeletonized scandisaurs? Maybe a percentage? 20%? curious on the weight on em versus standard issue Saurasaurs.

Looking sexxxxxxxxxxy.
 
this may be the one i've been waiting for. i certainly want to check it out. I'll take it!

Looks really nice, I love the grind height on that one. Nice and high for slicing, but enough spine left for strength and to show the spalting.
