Good morning and a strapping good Fiddleback Friday to you all. This weeks batch contains daggergrinds, CPM 154 steel, daggergrinds on CPM 154 steel, Camp Knives with tapered tangs, and a good offering of base price Fiddlebacks. I want y’all to know that we are going to continue to produce the base price offerings. This is because folks are asking for them. Yes, there are folks that just don’t like tapered tangs. Also, it is because I want to strive to keep my knives affordable, and in the user price range.
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.
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, 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. We do all our shipping on Thursdays.
