Just received this yesterday

KPH with GITD scales

Dude, that is sick.

 

[Fiddleback]

Thats a pretty dang cool one too. The guy I made that one for is one of my 'actuall met in person' internet friends.

It's like staring up into deep space with a hint of lime and a glowing eye. if it was purple it'd be pimp.

This is the passaround machete. What a sweet design! I'll get a review up soon, but for now, here are some pics!

Wow these knives are amazing! I wish I could afford one! Had a look on the website, I love the "Runt".

 

[Fiddleback]

I love seeing pics of the blade flexing like that. Not once have I had one come back snapped! Not once.

Thanks Rodogg. The runt is like a gem in the hand. I like making that model. Just finished two a few weeks back.

Went out last night with the intention of making a fire in the rain. Used my Hunter for everything to process this pitchwood. I should say that I've had this knife for 3 weeks now and this is the first time I've had it out in the woods.

Other than needing to square up the spine so it'll shave this pitchwood down it did fine. I used the blade to make those shavings and they lit great with a light my fire.

Got a new one today, wow, just wow, Andy just continues to amaze, I'm starting to worry about how much money I'm going to drop at Blade this year

 

[Mistwalker]

Nice score, I could have easily dropped a thousand at Andy's table alone last year if I had it to spend

You guys need professional help, sick says I.

Just remember fellas, if you come and see something you like you better grab it then, we sold out last year, I helped him all weekend and I bet there was six or ten guys came back on Saturday to buy a knife they seen Fri but it was already gone.

Yep, even with as sick as I was on Friday evening you saw how early I got there on Saturday when it finally kicked in that I really did want that Hiking Buddy.

So, must be time to make some more of these cuties. With purty handles like those too

Just got this Arete on Friday:

My first thought was that it reminded me of a hen mallard, the pattern on the scales like the feathers on a hen mallards back, the orange pin stripe like the feet, the spalting pattern on the blade like the churned up water as she lifts from the water....

Had to test my thoughts, so.....

Went on a little duck hunt.

Pretty close!

Yep, it has a new name, Miss Suzy.

A few pin feathers to remove, a rinse and ready for the pot.

Nothing like a a nice duck blood patina to start a knife off right

Now I may need a drake mallard to go with it...gray and brown, green bolster, orange pinstripe, black pins.....nah, never mind..too many ducks, not enough bucks!

Great little knife...thanks Andy!

You put the lime in the coconut... And the bow legged chopper makes quick work of it

My runt was perfect on this last trip to Afghanistan. Fits perfectly in the little pocket on the calf of the ACU.
