• Happy Thanksgiving to all of you! I hope that you all have something to be grateful for this year and for many years to come
  • America has reached 250 years, and I am grateful to be here, in the best country in the world. Thank every one of you who helps make this country a better place, those who have gone before and risked it all, and those who've paid the ultimate price to make the United States what we are today.

    Happy Birthday America! Let Freedom Ring for all time!

Occasionally you buy a knife without really having any idea HOW you're going to use it, or even really HOW you're going to carry it... Well I just did that...

Specs:

Blade 5”
OAL: 9.25”
Weight: 4.1oz (no sheath), 5.6oz (with kydex)
Steel: CTS-XHP

This is a double dagger ground fixed blade, clearly... It's badass, it's sharp, it's shabby, it's menacing... Joseph makes an fantastic fixed blade gents...

The blade is ridiculous... purpose built with two functions in mind, firstly opening letters, and secondly full on stabbing a mofo.

The detail work is really classy, all the holes are chamfered with the bevels being polished. The paracord wrap is very cool, and adds just enough grip.

The sheath is functional, but I'll probably be having something else made... still gotta decide how I want to carry this monster.

Hope you all diggit, looking forward to hearing what you think.
