Hey guys!

As many of you know I have been busy this last week with the birth of our second child, Amber Diane Fairly!

I'm booked solid in the shop for quite a while but thought it would be fun to come up with three designs you would like to see me make!

The designs can be fixed blades, folders, tools, etc... the point is to have fun!


I'll start! :D



1. Framelock Rigging Knife - RF2 variation with extremely rust resistant Nitrogen steel and Shackle Opener thumb slot


2. Tomahawk - like a pipe hawk lines-wise but solid S7 steel


3. Keychain Tools - new designs!




lol I might have these drawn up!
 
I'd like to see a fixed hawkbill type blade with serrations on the spine, something like a linemans skinning knife and the serrations are for cutting ropes. It would be nice if there was some way to incorporate a shackle key and prying part into the knife. I am a lineman and I enjoy knives so it would be pretty awesome to have a custom tool like this, I wouldn't have to worry about carrying a knife for my cutting needs, skinning knife for skinning cable, or a screwdriver to free up bound shackles, grounds, or pry stuff. Maybe Im asking too much for one tool but it'd be cool to see, it'd basically be like a fixed blade rigging knife with some modifications; the curve of the hawkbill doesn't have to be severe. Rigging is a very big part of my job.
 
You know I want NINJA STARS too.. so.. let's see...

A large cutlass designed after the cutlass in the movie "The Guardians". Santa claus has it.. Yes I watch too many kids movies..

BUT I have seen several in kids movies that are pretty fun/fantasy that would be sweet as function weapons... like the sword in Kung-fu panda.. almost an over/under style blade.. oO

That is 3. I guess. bye. :D
 
sgian dubh, nesmuk style camp/skinner, Bird and Trout - preferably with wood handles and good steel (M4? M390?) and leather pants.

I sent you folder plans a while back, based on your existing design.

Just that one.

But I can send you more :D.

Something without a chisel grind.

I think he has done that before. Chisel grinds tend to be more popular and better performers, so he tends to stick with them. There's a thread in this sub that was recently bumped explaining why.

Ooo, a sgian-dubh would be a nice little design that would fit my single edge dagger desire! The other two choice of yours are right up my alley as well. Great minds think alike.....and so do we :p

1. Still dreaming of a tanto folder with lines similar to my fixed.

2. A stout, short Kogotana type with a similar diameter sheath for pocket carry.

3. I'd love to see what you could come up with for a Fairly style diving knife.
