I love making knives for you all. Thanks to everyone for supporting Fiddleback Forge. Its an amazing feeling to do this for a living. Fiddleback Forge depends on y’all, and we hope you love the tool you buy from us.

Well, it is Friday again, and we have a pretty nice week of work to show you today. The Wasp has infected my brain, and I’ve had dreams about it all week. I have two avail today. Both of this week’s HB’s are model standard. And the Kepharts, while all SFT, are out of the world this week.

Please quote the whole description in your post when you shark a knife. This keeps me and Ken from having to scroll back and forth while we sort out the mayhem. Failing to do this won’t mean your call doesn’t count, but it really helps.

Ken and I have decided for now to make international shipping $40 flat. That covers 90% of the shipments. When it goes up and we get upside down we’ll change it. This should make it more simple for overseas purchasers to finalize payment.

The steel this week is 3D Spalted 01 steel.

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.




I have a Big batch of small knives this week. Really nice ones too. This red Bushraptor is fantastic! Both of the HB’s this week are model standar knives as is the red Bushraptor.

So I had a dream this week that someone had attached a Wasp to a big sewing machine, and was torturing me by pushing my arm into the machine. That Wasp was going a million miles a minute, and tore my arm almost off in the dream. It was one of those you wake up from and say, thank God that was only a dream. Still. It was really neat looking and I remember even in the dream thinking it was cool.

A Hunter and a Duke. Someone told me this Marblewood looked like plywood in the pics I take. I stink at photography. This stuff is really impressive in person.
