(JK Vermont Hunter) Merry Christmas to me! received a couple new JK's today.

Glad it`s working out well for you! If you get some really nice photos of it, and give it a name, I`m sure it will make it into my line for 2013. (with your permission, of course).
 
Great looking knife!

...the first things that come to mind are "Camel's Hump" (mountain in vermont...humpback handle...WICKED clever...barf) and "The Northfield." that is where i hunted this year....Northfield, VT (mostly). that is a more sophisticated name, i suppose.

Should you wander into the Traditional world, let alone subforum, you'll find that "Northfield" is in current (and frequent) use by Great Eastern Cutlery, as their top line. Sophisticated, indeed, but perhaps likely to cause confusion if you use the same name for your knife.

I don't want to be a broken record, but i am really loving this knife. here she is just sailin' through taters.

Given that you were the first to bring this to my attention (I've subsequently extracted the audio and created ring tones, yes I have), and in light of the above Tater duty, may I suggest:

Mogno

Acvodad

Sirl


:D

at first, i was wondering what you were talking about, but then i clicked the link. i got to laugh all over again! thanks perti. :thumbup:
 
thought i had finally come up with a name. you don't know how much i think about this. i figured, let's call it what it is. Hunter. but, i knew John had an old Hunter design. Ok, well, it is kind of a Humpback Hunter. oh, but wait...i know...i am in VT...how about the Long Trail Hunter. PERFECT!!!

aaaand, just did a quick google search and see that BHK already has a Long Trail knife. :eek: :(

Curses!! back to the drawing board.
 
How about the Vermont Hunter? I was thinking it should be a Vermonter.

Whatever you end up naming this knife is what I will be adding to my 2013 JK Wish List. :)

i have thought of just calling it the Vermonter...or perhaps the Green Mountain Hunter. The Vermonter sounds better, i guess. it is hard for me to go with that because that is the name that everyone gives everything around here for the tourists. but, it is a good name, i suppose.

nice! i am really liking it. John did a great job on this one. :thumbup:

happy New Year's guys.
 
I'm back! And yup...still love this knife. I have been using it around the kitchen. I can't wait to take it outside and use it.

I was trying to get at least one non-blurry picture for John. I think this one came out the best....

I labelled the pics as JK Vermont Hunter. So, i guess that's what i am calling it. Though...John, if you choose to add it to your lineup, feel free to call it "The Vermonter" or whatever else you like.

Oh...and the sheath is done too.

I am pleased with how it turned out. I just wish i were left-handed. :p :D
 
nice pictures, sheath looks as awesome as the knife, and there's always time to make a right handed version :p

Thanks, but I'm right handed too.

ok. for some reason, i was thinking you were a lefty.

the offer stands. if any other JK-ers are thinking of getting one of these knives and really are left-handed, please let me know.

I love everything about it. Especially the proper handed sheath.:D
 
Looking good Todd!

Vermont Hunter is good - then you can call it the VTH for short.

I love the ironwood.

The more I look at it, the more I am thinking Vermont Sharpfinger. ;^)
