Jack Wolf Knives - The Wolf Den

Thank you for sharing, and allow me to clarify. They will be properly marked for importation sake on the individual boxes the knives come in (ie the container as referenced above). I am having them repackaged to my specifications locally, and was planning not to resticker them in the process. But if the law required that it be noted, I will comply. I will consult my attorney about it.

I don’t think you would need to mark the blades with country of origin. I have a couple knives by another builder/designer that has used Reate for some of his production. I would have to dig for the boxes, but the knifes are just labeled with name and steel type similar to what you are showing.

The way Reate does it is, on the outside of the box there is a small clear oval sticker with black text that says China.
 
If you are at all interested in maintaining full disclosure as to the source of the knives, there should be no concern about marking the blades. Forum postings are not a valid legal defense. You need not only advice from your lawyer but legal guidance in writing from US Customs.
The regulations say legible, indelible and permanent. What others do is not relevant. What you do is what is important. Your business and products will be viewed in a manner dictated your actions, and that means following the rules. Not marking the blades could construed as being less than transparent, especially when using an easily removable sticker may open the door for further confusion if the knives are being sold by unscrupulous resellers / flippers.
 
Don't listen to naysayers. The last thing anyone wants is a huge "CHINA" marking on the blade. Period, the end. Don't even let anyone drag you into an argument, these are your knives, you make them the way you envision them. Anyone dropping this kind of money on a knife is a fool if they did not research where it came from.

How about we get back to pictures and talk of knives and let the owner of the company worry about marking (or not marking) the blades?

Sounds good to me! I have some 15 second videos I filmed of me handling the knives. Aside from uploading them to youtube and putting the Youtube link here, I wasn’t sure if there is an easier way to host and post them for you guys. I am open to suggestions, and tomorrow I will see if there is any info about hosting vids here on the forum.

I like the look of the Vampire Jack, but how does it feel in hand?

I can only answer this from my perspective, as ergonomics and fit are a very individualized thing. For reference I wear Large gloves; I am 6'2, so I am above average size. When I put my thumb in the dished out area beneath the bolster, the opposite side swell fits nicely in between my pointer and middle finger. The swell that is near my palm creates a nice ramp for my thumb to rest on. If I have a pinch grip near the top of the micarta, its a similar situation where the swells find a nice place to rest. I don't choke way up on slip joints, but that might not be the best grip position as it places the swells more in contact with my hand. I will say this, and again I can only speak for myself. When I grab a knife, or anything meant to be gripped for that matter, my brain and hand work together to find the comfortable resting spot without giving it much thought. And this knife, at least in my opinion, can be comfortably gripped. I hope that helps!
