Here ya go.

I think it's a great design, Jared! Sheepsfoot alone is a bit limited IMO but it is a perfect addition to the clip.
And the extraordinary combination of materials makes it really special :thumbup:

Well I have been the proud owner of the Eureka Moose for almost a week now. I can not thank Jared enough as throughout the process he kept me well informed, answered all my questions and is just a great person to deal with. I can say with all honesty that my Oeser knife is the best built, most flawless piece of cutlery I own, bar none. Every detail is executed precisely from the milled relief of the liners to the shield, F&F is just outstanding. The spring is flush in all positions and the walk & talk of this guy is sooo nice. I know its my only custom but I have handled a few at shows and owned a lot of high end production knives, this one is not lacking anything. I love Jareds flair that he adds to the traditionals, the mixed material and willingness to think outside the box is what makes his work so unique. It drew me in right away and I knew I had to own one. I am far from disappointed with my first, perfect fit for me and my lifestyle right now. Its a worker and the sheepsfoot main blade sees most of the action. Even at .108 thick it still slices through cardboard like a razor knife. Yet its very stout and inspires confidence to use it as you need. From day one I put it in my watch pocket(never done that before) and tried to protect it. I reach for it from time to time during the day and find it has migrated to the main pocket, as hard as I try to baby it a little I just cant. I have put it to full use and it has not shy'd away from anything I have thrown at it yet. Today I needed to take a piece of wood trim off a column so that I could fit my stone in its proper location. I had to cut this decorative piece of molding of just right so it would not be damaged creating too much work for a fellow tradesman. The sheepsfoot blade excelled at this task and with the thicker blade I did not hesitate to leverage it hard into the caulking to separate the 45 corner. The clip blade is also expertly ground, the profile is about as good as it gets. I will save it more for food prep and anything I prefer the use of belly to cut with. They both came screaming sharp out of the pouch, my arm hairs screamed at its site

All in all I cant say enough good things about Jareds work or my new pocket knife. This will certainly not be my last Oeser and I encourage anyone with the means to get your hands on one, I doubt you will be disappointed with your purchase :thumbup:

Here are a few pics I have taken.

Thanks again Jared, I really appreciate your hard work and will enjoy this one as much as I can my friend.

Thank YOU, for such a great post. Making these is something that is very enjoyable for me and that enjoyment is amplified by your (and others) enjoyment of the knife. I love seeing them used and can't wait to see the patina build on your O1.

Thanks again Jared, I really appreciate your hard work and will enjoy this one as much as I can my friend.

That makes two of us J and your welcome. Cant wait to see your next one or any of your future work for that matter :thumbup:

Made some fire starting shavings. The finish has not shown any use marks yet, and I expected this old dirty wood to do so. But it did not.

You can see that the light paper micarta is aging nicely!

 

[richstag]

Very nice T!

Between you and Jeff we should all be getting some awesome feedback!

Another stunner. Jared just keeps cranking them out! Congrats Kris and Jared.

Just WOW.

Tyson, I'm always surprised how well the hand rubbed finish holds up to abuse. It does especially well on CPM 154.

Thanks for the kind words guys. Here's another I finished recently. Etched O1 with curly maple covers.

 

[clutchcarter]

Congrats Kris, that Lanny's is NICE!

Jared, another original idea! I like the contrast of the light maple to the etched blade, you know I'm partial to the etched blades.

You just keep knocking them out of the park, Jared! Very nice! I like both those blade treatments.

 

[phacochère]

[Bigfattyt]

Wow, that curly maple looks great with the etched steel!

 

[wagglebee]

Great score Kris!

 

[quattromori]

Jared,
I told you this before...but your dogleg frame looks amazing to me, and the way you combine colors and materials on slipjoints has become your trademark.
I'm looking forward to seeing more of your knives, and witness you take even more challenges. Oh, and handle them of course

[J. Oeser]
