I get a lot of emails when someone receives their knife about how much they like it, and that they will post a review and pics. I normally don`t see this happening, anybody want to do one on their`s? Anybody actually use one? The only ones I can remember offhand are PB Wilson`s, C Bryant`s, udtjim`s, and pitdog`s. I see reviews of the other makers knives all over the W&SS Forum. I`m in kind of a gloomy mood here, let`s cheer me up.

At a minimum, I promise to post pictures and general thoughts and comments when I get mine. I'll probably get to play around with it some in the yard, but the wife is 7 months pregnant, so I probably won't be making it out into the woods in the next 2 months. Although, turkey season starts in April here in SC, so I might get lucky and get to use it in the field.
 
I really want to use my Kepharts John, but I took them down to JRE to get sheaths done and JRE's currently working with about an 8 week turnaround. So hopefully in the next week or two I'll get them back with a nice new piggyback sheath. I'll be happy to do a photo review when I get them back.
 
In an attempt to cheer ya up buddy, maybe some people consider your knives too pretty to actually use !!!!!;)

This identifies another issue for some of us with regards to reviews. After seeing some of the top notch reviews and excellent photography in them, I can understand how posting a follow-up could be somewhat intimidating. I'm a newbie as well, but everyone has to start somewhere, right?
 
I've learned a lot from some of the excellent reviews on Bladeforums. I've only done a couple reviews but I try to add something new to what may have been covered before. Also, if another reviewer makes a point about a specific aspect or a knife, I've tried to address it with my own perspective or experiences.

I think if you are kind and honest and try to take some tips from previous reviewers, it'll help all of us. Don't worry about making the world's finest fuzz stick (mine stink) or a perfectly executed figure four trap. Just jump in and share.
 
John, just a quick up-date on the Bushcrafter Passaround review.

As well as the review here in WSS and on KF, I got the JD review up as promised.

Just trying to keep up my end of the deal, thanks for the opportunity to check out the knife.
