Kerry Hampton Knives

Against my better judgement, here is Tony's #4 Stag PT for comparison. I decided to try this knife out with the semi-skinner nail nick on the same side as the master blade. It works pretty good without getting the pull too far out on the tip.

Dang...I recon I could have done a better job shootin pix of my own knife. :eek: There is a "do-over" in my future. :p

I actually prefer the look of both nail nicks on the same side, I would be more than happy with either one though.
 
Another vote for the stag and of course the knife is top shelf! Well done Kerry
 
I like the nail nicks on both sides... Seems
it would work well with that size knife! Nice
touch Kerry!

I like the PT, Kerry. I can't wait until my name rises to the top of the list again (seems like I've been waiting longer for #2 than I did for number #1 but what is it they always say about delayed gratification, builds character or something???)

I need to win the lottery so I can say, "Just make me one of everything!"
 
Dudes!!! I will not make another one of these tiny, girly knives! :barf: I made 2 pen blades before I decided I could not grind the tiny bass turds so I ask the Old Dog if he would give a brother a hand. I can officially call this a Hampton-Bose collaboration for the save. 👍:cool:

It's a 3" stag teardrop jack. Stag is naturally colored by whatever process it went thru to get here...a very nice red-amber. Steel is D2. I'm pretty sure this knife will be dropped into the owners pocket as soon as he gets it. :D

Thanks, Ken. This was seriously a tough knife for me. It's the first one I have made without bushings...easier in the tuning process but had to be more gentle when I put it together, as you know. The size of the knife made it more difficult than anything I have made to date.
 
That is one great looking knife Kerry! I love the design, the stag is outstanding, and we all know how great your quality is.

Congrats to the lucky owner!
 
Nice knife Kerry! Keep up the fantastic work! Hope this one did not slow you down too bad, the rest of us are waiting:D Steven
 
That little guy is freaking gorgeous!!!
 
That little Teardrop is outta the park! Nice one Kerry!
