Fiddleback Friday 9/27/13

[Fiddleback]

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.

Man, I gotta tell you all how nice it is to be home. It’s a big week here at Fiddleback Forge too. Next week the new employee, Ken, starts and we will be increasing production. Also, next week Adam starts as an employee. Its sink or swim time and I’m hellbent on growing. Its going to be hectic for the first month, but then, hopefully it will allow me to work a more normal work week, and slow myself down a bit. I have two new designs that will be coming out in the next few weeks also. It’s a fun time here.

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 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 one knife made from 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.



Scandi Knives – I have 5 nice Scandi Fiddlebacks ready to go. The piece of wood on the Bushfinger is Maple. I had it stabilized at WSSI years ago and never put it on a knife thinking it was ugly. Then we sanded the flats, and it started to POP. Now it is off the charts pretty! I can’t believe what a diamond in the rough it was.

Its not particularly slippery per se. Feels nice. Man, you can't believe the layers of stuff going on in this handle. I can't get a pic of it, but its stunning in the sunlight.
