Fixed blades

Holy smokes, given the width of that guard that must have been a big piece of A2. I'll bet it was a 35 to 40 lb chunk of steel they started out with.

I can only judge what I see on my phone screen, but that looks like some darn crispy machining.

Yessir! (*good eye, Chief)


Sandra Bullock's ex old man, "Jesse James" (*of "West Coast Choppers" fame) made those.

Milled/machined from a solid piece of A2 billet.

A series of hilariously unfortunate occurrences has resulted in my being sequestered at the house with the children for the past few days.

While not getting out to work sucks, it's afforded me the opportunity to make room in the "wood yard" for our next run of jobs, and to further my acquaintance with the DB321. Haven't used a folder for anything in 3 days now.

Yep, that is definitely crispy. Someone took their time writing that.

Mr Beck makes a comfortable handle. Simplicity gets overlooked a lot these days. That particular Saranac 5 has nice thin stock ( .11 I believe), 01 steel and black linen scales.. holds a scalpel edge with light stropping. Versatile and useful design.

A hand ground SS1 before GunKote, all grinding and machining done in-house. This blade was hollow ground on a larger wheel.

Beautiful! I think you may be one of the only makers building hollow handle knives built for real use. Those grinds are clean !!

 

[Sam Wilson]

Thank you, are a lot of fun once complete!

This is the finished result. OD green GunKote, brown cord wrap and steel plated aluminum buttcap. Very pleased.⚔⚔

Admittedly, I don't own a boatload of Nathan's stuff, but can say (*beyond the shadow of a doubt) that the Basic SDFK is my favorite.
