This is the third installment of my new EDC pattern intro knife series. I've decided to do each in something special and unique, and offer them for prices similar to the standard versions I will eventually be selling. It took me a lot longer to get to this one than I'd hoped, the last week or so has been a hurricane.

This one is my favorite from the group. The LS CF is striking in person, especially with the copper hardware. I found it incredibly difficult to photograph and capture even a portion of the character of this knife.

Specs:

7.15" OAL, 3.125" Edge length, .156" stock thickness, 4.8oz
CTS-XHP @ 60RC
Lightning Strike CF and Black G10
Oversized copper pins, copper lanyard tube

$165 shipped with your choice of made to order custom sheath

Man, I really like your work. The big wharncliffe with the gray burl you posted a few weeks ago was more my style than this one, but they're both awesome. Keep up the good work, eventually you are going to get some of my $$$.
 
Thanks guys :)

Hopefully this one moves pretty quick... had an HT mixup and was delayed nearly an entire week, need to get some sales rolling bad.
 
Thanks!

Just so everyone knows, this CF totally has that flash and shimmer that makes CF so darn cool. If I need to bait the hook a bit better, I will see if I can get a decent sunlit shot, once I get out of the shower and no longer look like a dirty snowman.
 
Wow! Just wow! Super clean (as usual) and I'm really diggin' the ergos on it. Sorry to hear about your HT mixup. Had one of those myself a few weeks ago. Quenched a whole batch of 1095 in AAA. That was fun re-normalizing and re-quenching. That's a fantastic price!
 
I will gladly take this knife Ian. Let me know payment info and I will send $. Right handed leather sheath for pocket please, if that is an option. Thanks, Bradley
 
This one made me stop and go WOW.

Your best work yet and at a price too good to be true.

Keep up the great work!

Thanks!

It hit me a bit hard this time, normally it just would have been an annoyance, but i had just finished paying all of my bills and materials invoices for the month, so it was pretty much the worst timing.

Plus, it was the last of my steel stock, and my new order hadn't yet arrived.

Back on track now though... rollin with the punches. I'm enjoying knifemaking so much that if this is the worst that happens, I have very little to complain about. :)

Thank you! I hope you love it. You can shoot me an email either via BF, or my website's contact form, and I will send my paypal address.

Please let me know what color you'd like for the sheath. Once I have your email address, I can send you some sample photos to help you choose if you'd like.

Thanks a bunch. I've been dying to try out this LS CF for a while now, it came out great. The dust is almost as bad as bad as printer toner though! Good thing I have dust collection and a good respirator.

Thanks Russ! This one came out a lot like yours, where it has a really unique personality even though it is a "standard" pattern.
 
Just have to be faster, your work is stellar Ian! Guess I will have to start watching a little closer.
