Very nice Bud. That's the first Damascus fiddleback I've seen!

Thanks, but I don't think it's the only one. Maybe the only EDC-II in damascus. Andy has 2 bars of damascus on his desk that he picked up at Knifemaker Guild meeting this year. The bars were insanely expensive .. and I'm curious to see what he makes with them.

There are at least a few others. See HB, Arête and KEB in links below. But I think Bud's might be my favorite one. :thumbup:

That Osage Woodsman from the 12-6-13 thread haunts my dreams.

That and the fact that the last CPM Padre made didn't sell until Page 3!!! Today it would not last 3 seconds on a Friday.

I did a little limb removal today with the production camp knife!

Wrong thread... sorry.

Just picked up a Camp Knife Saturday from Whitty. I've wanted one for awhile now. I'm glad it finally happened and I got to spend some time with Andy and crew.



This knife is perfect, among the very best Fiddlebacks I've seen in any model/configuration, imo. Thought it deserved a bump. Congrats!

Well, it took a lot longer than it should have, and the sharpening job is still not perfect, but...

I worked it up my waterstones from 250 through 6000. The tip and the last bit by the heel of the blade are still giving me trouble, but I think I'm starting to get the hang of this scandi sharpening thing.

That is a beautiful specimen! I can't believe it stuck around for as long as it did.

Good job Jesse, the heal part will be hard to clean up unless you grind down the thicker part of the primary bevel transitioning from the ricasso. Unless you take care of it at the coarsest stage with your stones, it's a lost cause. But functionally it's really a non-issue. The tip end, you'll get better with practice.

I agree with Josh's comments. You did a nice job Jessie! I like that handle combo too.
