American Classics Series –The Fiddleback Forge American Classic series consists of two models. They are the Kephart and Nessmuk. If I ever make a Bowie knife, then I’d add that one...
this is for payments right fiddlebackpayments@att.net
It's really frustrating to log in a see the knife you want yet someone snags it first, fair game no foul. Log off and then come back to see the action and see the purchase withdrawn, and then snagged by someone else. Do we need to start asking to buy anyway so that we are next in line if the first buyers withdraws their purchase? Not trying to stir anything up here, it just seems that more and more members are snagging knives and then after thinking about it backing out. Given the way Fiddleback Friday works, it makes it really frustrating to me. Sorry Andy if this seems out of line but I think it needs to be said.

This is the kind of post that warms my heart. This Big Sneaky design is fun.
Thanks Gordy -- tracking on that, but ironically I've been surviving (pre-FBF) on a just a spyderco, bow saw and leatherman in some pretty rough places. Despite me telling myself that I "need" a camp knife, chances are that my new Duke or Woodsman will meet or exceed my needs for just about anything I will encounter! Although... There's probably always going to be an open spot in the collection for a camp knife![]()
I can not yet speak for the Duke, though I do hope to at some point soon, but I have both a Woodsman and a Camp, and due to the weight distribution handle length and shape, and blade geometry, the Camp can chop circles around the Woodsman. The Camp is a bit heavier yes, but with a tapered tang and high grind, it carries that weight very well.
Yes, I full height grind Camp Knife is AMAZING! AMAZING! I always carry one in my pack. I hammock camp and it is perfect for trimming limbs, then preparing the fire, then fixing dinner... what great all purpose knife! Actually I have others that can do that stuff also, the Camp Knife is just fun to use! It makes me smile!
Payment has been sent for the 009 Nessmuk. As this is my first go-round with Fiddleback Friday what is the shipping schedule like? Can't wait to see the knife in person!
