Introducing......

[JK Knives]

The JK Handmade Knives New Model Test Team! I have been thinking about this for a while, and finally decided to do something about it. Whenever I come up with something new, I will be sending it out to this team for photos, testing, reviews, and feedback.

Andy (mqqn) preliminary photos
Joshua (machine26) who will be posting comparison reviews with similar knives here and on BCUSA
Cooper (cbwoods67)
Patrick (grunt soldier)
Derek (kyturkey)

Thanks for helping out!

Thanks for including me, John. This is gonna be alot of fun.

ETA: To give you guys an idea of the type of reviews I do(I call them shootouts), I compare 2+ same style knives, same branded knives, etc and do head to head tests. Basic bushcraft, outdoors and sometimes kitchen tasks. I'm sure John won't mind me posting a couple I've done already to give you fellas an idea.

This one involved short blades:
