We're Gearing up for Atlanta.

This is our new model called the Tigershark. Let us know what you think.

I like the middle one the best, although all three are cool. For my personal tastes, I would go with the middle one, with a few changes: the handle grooves would look cool if they were single radiuses going across the handle. I would also shrink the design 20%. That's just me, though! They look like a good addition to the "EDC" trend right now, and the fact that you offer the model in several blade patterns is really cool!

Said it once and I will say it again, LOVE IT! The design speaks to me. No I haven't lost my mind. Barry, I like the fact that you enlarged it a bit as I am into big knives. Steve, they make this knife in a smaller size with a 31/4" blade.

I have a couple DDR knives on order that I have to come up with some jack for, AND then there just might be a Tigershark in my future!

Art,
You must be confusing this model with the folding version of our Scorpion which I posted a few weeks ago. The Tigershark is going to be this size only (I may try a smaller version) for now. BTW, I will have the larger Scorpion folder in Atlanta so stop by and see it up close.

Chiro,
The 2 with recurved blades are exactly alike. I just flipped the middle one so people could see the placement of the pocket clip.

Oops, my bad! I was confusing the Tigershark with the Scorpion. Would it be possible to put up a pic of the Tigershark and larger Scorpion together?

Hope to be able to get down to Atlanta, fingers and toes are crossed!

Barry, really nice, and the grinds more interesting than just a flat or hollow grind.
Now about one with a stag handle.........

Always think of your fellow knife makers as partners in the search for the perfect blade, not as people trying to compete with you and your work!

Michael,
I have gotten some great ideas by looking at pics of animals. I got the idea for the shape of our Mongoose framelock from a picture of a mongoose. The Tigershark is sort of shaped like a tigershark. We have a new framelock coming. I got the idea for one aspect of the shape of it from a pic of a gorilla.

We start with a basic idea of what we want. We sketch it out over and over until we get something we like the most and go from there.
Often times the design just "pops" into our heads.

I can't wait to see your Duckbill Platypus model! Or how about the EMU? Possibilities are mind-boggling!
