Knife Pick Giveaway! WINNER CHOSEN #73 Doc 13!

I put those in there for both. They serve a purpose as a sort of jimping to get a good purchase on the pick when you use it to open a knife. I also mimicked somewhat the style of screw driver blades on old electricians knives. Everything on this is rounded and will not offend your hand during use.

CUTS LIKE A KRIS said:
I would love to try out a true pick- I have a small tool that I carry as a portable fingernail (as mine have to be kept short), but have not been impressed when trying to use it as a pick. I'm curious why you added 'sharpening notches'- purpose or aesthetic?

As for patterns, I have not noticed you adding a punch to your knives (sorry if I have missed it), and I have always wanted to see a wharncliffe/punch combo, similar to a GEC Executive Whittler.

Great looking pick by the way!

Thanks for the giveaway!

Thanks Sarah! It's funny you posted that pic. It is one of the few production knives I have here in my desk drawer. The reason I kept it ... to use as a pattern for a knife in the future, so count on seeing one eventually.

Jared, what a beautiful little piece you've created!

I am so in. :)

In general, I'd say just keep doing what you're doing; every knife so far has been a revelation.

But, since you asked? I'd enjoy seeing your take on something like this (3.25"):

Thanks Chris. Life is trying to kick my butt but I'm kicking back. I hope you are doing well!

Jared, nice GAW. I will take a shot, though by the end, I expect my chance to be something like 1 in 300. That's ok--it's all in good fun. Hope all is well with you and yours.

This is beautiful - I'd be proud to own it!

Also would be proud to own a zulu like in the second pic - if only one was available.......

Thanks for the chance, Jared! That looks like a useful little key chain tool. I don't recall seeing a Fiddleback/Cokebottle or a Sowbelly that you've made yet. Either would be a good choice for a new pattern.

I also just noticed your custom title for the first time. It's an excellent description for the distinctive style of your knives. Keep up the great work.:thumbup:
 
Count me in Jared, looks great!

I wouldn't change a thing that I can see, and I really like the multi-purpose aspect.
I'm thinking one to match my Trapper might be in order.
 
I'm in, with thanks! If you're looking for ideas, I'm partial to friction folders... ;)
 
I would love a chance at that nifty keyring jewelry! It was a pleasure meeting you at Blade Jared. You, and your father...oops, I meant Jeff! are both class acts.
With your attention to detail, if you ever feel the urge, I would love a 3.75" three blade sowbelly pattern from you. Sunken joints, hand and pocket friendly. That would do it for me. Best of luck to all.

Nice, I think It'd look great with my Zulu as well! I'm in on this.

Thanks in advance.
 
Thanks Mike, it was great meeting you. The "older gentleman" I was with was actually my good friend Jeff. He's the real class act.
