A while back, Haley and I were asked to make knives as gifts for the groomsmen at her Brother's wedding. They asked for something small and simple. What we came up with were these little "freeman" knives. They are full tang, forged to shape, and wrapped with Net mending twine. We liked them so much that we made some for ourselves, and also sent one out to client of ours who is an avid hunter and knife user for some field testing. He was kind enough to test it, and also post some field photos here on the forums. The response was really great, so we have decided to make them available as part of our full time line-up. Because they are fun and pretty standardized the basic twine-wrapped version will be kept in stock, available without a wait. This knife can be had anytime and will be delivered within a month of ordering.
The Photo of the three knives together are the groomsmen knives.
The other three are the Basic "freeman", the "stingray and Sword-wrap", and "bolsters and ironwood"
Enjoy!

Adam, those are super cool, great idea!

 

[Lorien]

that is a sleek little design. Love that netting twine or whatever it's called, I use that for all sorts of things, mostly wrapping tool handles and the handles on my throwing knives.

Looks like you're stayin warm up there:thumbup:

 

[RogerP]

Neat little knives. I really like the one with the ironwood scales. What are the dimensions?

[John White]

You guys! Those are really neat.

[DesRosiers]

Thanks Guys!
I forgot to add the specs. They all have about 3 inch blades, and are about 7" overall.
They are mostly made of 1084(1085v from Aldo). The one with the ironwood handle is CRUforge.

[fishunter219]

What is the pricing? Sheaths? Thanks.

 

[DesRosiers]

Fishunter,
I sent you a PM.

Yes, they all come with a leather sheath. I might also experiment with some kydex.

Adam.

Adam perfect sized user knife .

Really like the blade shape

Stingray one is killer

what type sheaths

 

[DesRosiers]

Joe,
The sheaths are leather cross-draw, but could be made vertical too. Here is a pic of the sheaths. For you, maybe some baby sea-otter skin?

I want want want one....for each hand. I have been wanting to copy one since I saw the HDpc.

 

[EScott]

Way cool! The sword wrap one looks strangely familiar. Hope you guys are doing well up there.

 

[SimonZayne]

Are these not on your website yet or am I just having a moment?
Either way these are great looking knives.

Have you been a good boy this year? I think Santa's coal in your stocking hasn't the right effect on you anyhow...you just burn it and make knives

Are these not on your website yet or am I just having a moment?
Either way these are great looking knives.

I'm afraid I must claim the moment for my own...got carried away packaging Christmas presents The knives are now up on the availables page.

Here's the girl sized Freeman I carry...it's dressed two deer, skinned an otter and cleaned innumerable fish since Adam gave it to me, less is more!

 

[ckerwin]

Very cool knives, what will you guys do with an otter? Just curious, I know they have a wonderful hide.:thumbup::thumbup:

 

[Le Seb]

Very cool knives !
This concept reminds me a bit of Burt Foster's DarkSide knives and that's great.
Thanks for the pictures.

COOL! I like the ray wrapped and ironwood ones very much. Looks like a great size for carry and utility usage.
