Since I'm brand new to this knife making thing, I don't have any set designs or names for them. This one is affectionately called "Knife 3". It's a one-of-a-kind. I know I still have a long way to go in the fit and finish department, but I'd love to do a pass-around to see if ya'll think I'm on the right track.
At the advice of some friends who have seen their pass-arounds go south, I'm going to borrow Tonym's rules from his Fiddleback passaround (I hope he doesn't mind). I'm sorry if that excludes someone, but it makes sense to me to do it. I'd hate to lose "Knife 3"
Here's the knife:
Specs:
01 Steel
3 3/4" blade
8" overall
Mirror polished convex edge
Handle is Emerald Dymondwood with Black Liners
I haven't made a sheath yet, but it will be a kydex sheath
On to the business:
Once you see that I posted your name please email me your Full name, home address, shipping address, email, and 2 contact phone numbers.
Here are the rules:
1. You must promise to ship the knife after 5 days of possession. Shipping must be USPS insured for 200.00 and sent Priority to the next person on the list, plus, you must use "delivery confirmation" when you send.
2. You must take at least one pic and post it in the passaround thread with your impressions of the knife.
3. We want you to use this knife as you would use your own. It is a wilderness tool not a concrete chopper. So be reasonable.
4. You must have at least 500 posts to be included, or, if we know you personally
5. We prefer paid members, unless we know you are a regular here.
6. Clean the blade as necessary and please ship it sharp to the next person! Simple stropping is all that is needed.
*We reserve the right to not include you in the passaround if for any reason we are not sure of your intentions, etc.*
*CONUS ONLY. Sorry guys, but we are going to keep this in the lower 48*
I'll take 10 or so people on this one:
1)tonym
2)John G
3)Sharp Eye
4)MacHete
5)JC in SC
6)CaptInsano
7)SpookyPistolero
8)BushcraftBrainTrust
9)Rockywolf
10)C Bryant
I'll arrange the list from East to West coast once I get all 10.
