Thank you David!

Kestrel in Dark Maple Burl
OAL: 7”; Blade: 3 1/8” Flat Grind
One of my most popular models for everyday carry.

Weekend $ale $200 Shipped CONUS; I normally don't discount my pieces on the forums - I just send them to one of the shops in the ski areas.
But I'd rather give the "forum folk" a $25 discount vs paying the shop their commission; and remember, I'm still paying the shipping and insurance.


BTW - Check out the videos below if you want more info!

That is quite striking and exceptional, Wayne. Nice clean flat grind and your bolster size and contour is ideal for that size knife imho. I really like the shape of the handle and how it grows deeper towards the base. On top of that the maple is some of the prettiest I've ever seen. :thumbup:
 
Brass, I have one of Wayne's Kestrals and I can tell you the handle of this knife is incredible. I don't know how he does it but it fits my hands perfectly. It also fits my wife's hands, my daughter's hands, my son's hands and my friends' hands. It has to be magic. It also cuts extremely well and I love it for edc. I love it so much, I got one for my daughter who absolutely loves it. She and I are knife nuts and Wayne Jarrett's knives are tops in our collections. I might as well just start sending Wayne money each month because I love his knives so much. I like the fact that they look gorgeous, but make incredibly useful and durable users. They are easy to maintain and keep that gorgeous look no matter what I throw at them.
 
Wayne,
I would like all forum members to know this is one sweet knife. As a member I have a addition to Ironwood Burl knife scales. This knife is very sweet ( I have held it in person) and someone will enjoy this knife and be very surprise!! to own it. I own 5 knives with Ironwood scales from Wayne, that are great knifes.

Thanks Redwing. Kind words my friend. This knife has scales from that same batch of wood that I showed you when you first stopped by the shop last summer. Good stuff!
 
Thanks Mr. W! :thumbup: Hope you like them. As competitive as the forum is getting for so few buyer dollars I hope these create a bit more confidence in folks that don't have one of my pieces just yet.
 
Well, if they don't have one, they sure need to get one as the Kestral is excellent for hunting and fishing. Heck, it's good for edc, too. I carry mine along with my TCEDC and have all my bases covered. The videos really show off the variety of materials suitable for collectors to users, like me. Thank you for sharing them!

BTW - this is the lowest price EVER on one of my Kestrels.
 
Wayne, I like the way you think! Giving us a crack at it, at a lower price, is a great way to build more loyal customers. I wish I could grab this one, but I've spent my knife allowance for the month. :( She's a beauty!

Thanks beau! You never know, she may be here for you next month when you've replenished your knife allowance. :D


Beautiful knife and love the photos. Is that actual backgrounds? Sorry I can't afford a knife!

Yep, those are backgrounds alright. ;) with a little photo manipulation to put the knife on them. :p My shots are no where near the pro's pics but I try to emulate them the best that I can.
 
Wayne,
Please send this beauty down the border if still available, I´ll send you an email in a minute...
Thanks
