That Charleston humidity does wonders to your hair.

I sense an influx of fullered blades coming in the custom knife world. Very cool.
 
Joe,

Nice Blades!

Jason,

I see that you dyed your hair, maybe you should touch up your beard also? :)
 
Very nice, but one observation/suggestion: the fullers look very clean and even, but the termination should be in line with the upswept tips (especially the smaller one). Very hard to do, but imho, would just add to the overall beauty of the blades. Like I said, this is just my viewpoint, ditch it if you like. Other than that one thing (at least for me), the blades are beautiful and graceful. Great work!
 
I've always wondered why it's called a fuller since you end up with less? Why not a lesser? ;)
And the dude with the 80's "big hair", now that's the real fright!



As always Jason, beautiful work (and I do know why they're called "fullers").
 
Fullers are so hard to do right

It is an embellishment unlike many that is truly performance oriented

Done wrong

Cheesey

Done well

:) Wicked

I agree with this.

I have been a fan of fullers for a long time, when done properly and on the right knife, for functional and aesthetic reasons.

Unless he wants more mass in the tip for a stronger tip or balance

Again proper fullers are based on balance and feel not just visual appeal

I can remember Bagwell worrying about the thickness of a pommel when it came to balancing a piece

Good point (no pun intended;) )
Nice blades. Jason works outside the box!!!
 
I would LOVE to own a Knight bowie at some point in my life. For no other reason than it would have my last name on it :), well that and he makes imo some of the best bowies you can get.

I'll concede that point... wasn't really thinking about that. Like I said, really nice looking set of blades there.
