Very nice. Huge fan of Jimmy Fikes. Very inspiring for a new knifemaker like me.
 
Thanks for looking and the nice comments. I know Jimmy likes to hear from the folks, I hope he gets well enough to go hammer a few out.

Hi Win,any word from Fikes.Hope he makes a few knives this year.Would it possible to post the tantos together in one shot.Thanks for the info on the tanto with the aritcle.
 
If you're not going to sell any of those knives to me, quit posting those damn pictures!

Hope all's well out there, Win!
 
Thanks, Seth, too funny. Raj, I need to get a decent shot of the Tantos, I'll try this weekend. I've been exchanging e-mails with a fellow that I sold a Cabin Boy to many years ago, he's got a different Tanto, rounded tip and I hope to get a picture of that.
 
I did hear from Jimmy and he is still working on getting the forge up. Unfortunately, he's still battling some heath issues but hopefully we'll see something this year.

He did confirm that the used Tanto was the one in FK, said he only made a few like that.
