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 have to tell you all exactly how honored I am to make and sell knives to this community. It’s a blessing to make your cutlery, and I thank God for this opportunity.
Thank you for the support you have given to Fiddleback Forge as we have grown this business right here at Blade Forums. Also, thank you Spark, for supporting knifemakers and helping to grown this community and offering a forum for makers. I learned to make knives here and now we are creating jobs. Its all you folks! We just get to do the fun part.
Even though we are growing, please be sure that every knife that has my initials has been hand ground by me. Also, the handle shapes are mine alone. Honestly, right now I have my hands in every process. But I wanted y’all to know that I’m not marking knives with my name that aren’t made by me.
We have upgraded our marking ability and the mark is now etched deeply in the steel. Also, I had a special mark made that will go on a knife here and there.
The prices this week are without sheaths. I am lucky enough to work with Rick Lowe and Heber Ellsworth for my sheaths. The make beautiful sheaths that really compliment my work. I appreciate your support for them as well.
The steel this week is 3D Spalted 01 steel and CPM 154CM.
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. Ken has taken over the shipping department and he got the packages out on Tuesday this week. He is also doing the packing and wrapping, which had been getting done by a part time helper. I think the packages this week were as good as when I used to do them myself or even better maybe. There is going to be a special e-mail address for all questions or concerns regarding shipping. I’ll give that out next week. Please help us help you by describing your purchase in the payment notes section.
