Has Kerry stopped making knives completely?

 

[sierracharlie]

Hope not. Got married I heard. Might have gotten distracted from his true calling.

 

[Will Power]

Given up?? He can't do that He's just hibernating from time to time

A Knifehead sighting is a rarity but you still him every once in a while

I'll bump this thread with a beauty I brought home with me from BLADE Show today. My first Hampton and I couldn't be happier to own it.

KHnutbuster perfection.

These my three Kerrys. Remarkably well done and crazy sharp. They are really hard working and distinctive. The talent speaks loud in a Kerry Hampton knife.

I think it was me that asked Reese what happened to Kerry , why he had not been around the Bose shop .

I don't know if this is still the only three-blade Kerry has made. I hope he goes on to many more - It's a great knife, with a very functional punch!!

What a great knife for a working man. No half stop? Kerry has a lot of talent and is fearless in what he is willing to try. I love the acid etched A2. If I wanted one of those, what would I ask for?

It is a Cattle knife, sierracharlie. A variation on a cattle knife, with a punch instead of a spey.

Very interesting take on the spear main for this one. I like the more aggressive and pointy profile. Gorgeous example Charlie!

 

[waynorth]

Thanks Gev and Jason!
Glad you folks like it - it's a nice one!!

Kerry makes a great knife, lucky he made this one for me, wish I had another.

 

[sierracharlie]
