John came up with a new model, a modified wharncliff. I asked if he could do that with a 5" blade and he could. I asked for one of his Anniversary EDC models to go with it. Matching handle styles, matching materials, a beautiful set designed for my kitchen.

We talked about them on his hosted forum, JK Handmade Knives, on November 16. He shipped them out December 8 and they arrived today. Quality work, great communications, ideas, and suggestions. Can't beat that.
 
I'd like to see pics also.

But you're right, JK is the man!

John is incredible to deal with. These are Esav's new blades BTW,

I recently met with John and brought him a cardboard cutout that I was hoping I could get made into a knife. John simply said yes and two months later it was shipped. You can't beat his customer service. And his blades are wonderful working blades.

Hi Esav -

Your idea to have the modified Wharncliffe done an inch longer prompted me to order one for my kitchen use - I ordered mine in the thinner 1/16" 01 steel, as I like the thinner blade for kitchen use.

Thanks for the idea!

John is a great fellow to know, have a beer with, and do business with.

best regards-

To give you an idea of what customer service is supposed to look like, here is a recent response to a question about one of his designs.

Here you go. As with any of my knives, if you need any dimensions changed, all you have to do is ask! Longer handle or blade, no problem! Thicker stock, no problem!

Yep I think that was to my question. John is just great at working with people to give them what they want. One of the good guys for sure and a very talented maker!
