Well I am sorry that I've ignored BF for so long fellas. In my defense until last week I barely had enough internet pipeline to get the knives posted on Shopify. But I'm back now. I have a great lineup this Friday to tell y'all about.

Firstly I am putting out the first two (of four) prototypes of the Batesville Shed series of knives. This series includes the Batesville Shed Knife (3.25" blade and 7.5" OAL), and the Batesville Shed Runt (Runt sized, of course). These are pointy with long swedges. This weeks variations have Black Ash Burl and Blue Jute Micarta. The handles are a new variation and I've never done anything similar. I'm going to have fun with this. Its beautiful and comfortable in the hand.

I also have a Palmer, a HB Jr and a Bushboot.

Man I’m drooling over that desert ironwood jr. Glad it’s not a warthog or it would be in my cart. Some beautiful blades tonight. That shed knife went super quick.
 
So I guess I'm the only one after the Bushboots. I didn't buy it and it's still there. 🤔
 
Now that Bushboot with a swedge is awesome. Sorry just realized it has always had one.

Edited.

There are a few BBs without a swedge. I think the first one didn’t have one. Greg and Andy would definitely be the most certain.
