Let's see your W.A. Surls Knife!

Since Kylie confiscated my Padre I have been w/o a "real" kitchen knife I wanted to use. Allen took care of that today and as soon as I begin prepping supper tonight it will have obtained "user" status.

Thanks Allen

Some of my current favorites.

My prized bog oak Inlander (the picture doesn't do it justice - you can't see the variations in color)
Yesterday's snag - a stunning Ironwood Huntsman (Thanks, Jim!)
My daily carry - an Osage Patch with blue stripes
And my favorite Fiddleback in the rear...Ironwood Karda with blue stripes.

 
Allen,

Thanks so much for saving my prized Arowana. And my relationship with my lady friend...and me - from a possible prison stretch.

She is currently (and probably forever) forbidden to touch my knives.



 
Two Inlanders. Both 3/32", bog oak/black/white has A2 and ivory/black/natural has CPM154.

I haven't looked at this one in a while. Was going through my collection and realized just how beautiful this one is. My first Surls blade.

 
My growing collection to date. Always looking for other patterns to add in!

Starting with the left column the top one is a beautiful "Hunter" followed by a cool looking thin "Harpoon" the following three are "Huntsmans" ( I kinda like this pattern if you didn't notice ) and a "Shark". The Right column Starts with two "Stingray EDC's" followed by one of my personal favorite fixed blade EDC patterns two "Minutemans" then a "Short Muck" a scandi "Bush Adder" ( I don't think there is many of these ) and last but certainly not least at the very bottom is an awesome "Kestrel". Just so happens I'm luck enough to have three that are pictured in Allens "Current Line up and pricing" list on this forum.

That is a nice collection! Could you give a list of corresponding model names for reference? I'd have to guess at a few of them.

Thanks
 
I originally wanted to do a compass but I realized that several of my knives are on a truck heading to Colorado so I went with a clock. :D

All I have at the moment is a WIP pic.

Here is a little backstory behind this knife. I believe I have everything correct. If not, Im sure Allen will be along to correct me.

Last weekend Allen attended the Ga Knifemakers's Guild meeting at Dennis Bradleys shop. One of or perhaps the largest Loveless collector lives nearby and often attends events such as Trackrock and sets up behind us at BLADE.

Anywho, Loveless only made 3 knives in this pattern and at one point he owned all 3. Knowing Allen and his affinity for Loveless style knives and relationship with Jim Merritt he allowed Allen to trace one of the two of them he currently has.

That is a great set you have onedog.

Allen is working on a few of these concurrently. They will probably be finished before mine. My wallet hopes so.
