Buddy, I don't know what to say!
The pics speak for themselves....it's like when you see a really nice sports car parked, but it just looks like it's going fast?
Well, that Wharny just looks like it needs to cut and cut and repeat!
As usual, amazing work.
All I can say is THANKS for making my knives better...
I will do a full performance review in the proper section once I have had a little time to cut with it...
I have a lot of work for that knife, so initial impressions will not take very long!
Thanks again!!

You are welcome my friend! Hope it serves you well
__________________________________________________________
Here are a few pics... I am really sorry it has taken me so long to get into the new shop and begin cerakoting guys, but I am finally there! You have no idea how much prep work and everything else is involved in coating these things... leather does not like the oven, I'm just gonna go ahead and say that up front lol (don't ask how I know).
Here are some of the first I have gotten done. All of these were reground. On the SATU I added the finger choil, shortened the blade (to make it legal in CA), enhanced the recurve, then blacked it out w/ Cerakote. On the other two I enhanced the swedge to where it's actually sharp at the tip for about 1/4" on the spine (where it will be receded into the handle). Good stuff!

Fantastic work. I need to figure out some stuff to send your way for a regrind and some cerakote
Sounds good lmk! :thumbup:
I think we should find a horrible beater knife, each do our thing to it, then do a GAW on the main page of BFC
whatcha think? Knock it outa the park!
ok I'm kind of late to the party. Just went through this entire thread.
Josh - unbelievable work man. Some of those regrinds (and sharpening jobs) are stunning! I will definitely keep you in mind if I need to get some regrind work done (and I can think of a few that could use help).
Keep up the great work!

Josh...
Take your time bro.
Moving into a new shop is a big deal, but in the bigger picture, the quality of your work is worth waiting a little bit longer for.
Ya, we all want everything now, but I know when people get their knives back they will see all the hard work that went into making them perfect, and realize that doing it the right way takes some time.
Keep up the ridiculous perfection, and I will have another Strider on the way this week...!
