Golly dog, that's perfect! Once again, Oeser reimagines the old into something new and interesting while remaining within the 'classic' fold.
Congratulations on such a fine piece!

Twinge of jealously .
I get a indescribable pain down deep in my gut
I have no idea how to get one , but I would love to have what would probably be the first Oeser knife in Australia ( some lucky Aussie will now post up pics of their beauty and blow my dreams to smithereens )
I would cherish any knife made by Jared , but a single blade Sheepsfoot is what I see as I drift off to sleep at night

Coconut husk micarta! That stuff is over the top...as is your new baby! Just superb.

I usually try to stop by Jared house when I am in his neighborhood, but this summer I had too much planned while visiting his neck of the woods.
It is always lovely to see what he has in the works, and recently finished. I would have loved to have handled it.
This one is mine. The paper micarta is aging very well!
BTW, I am pretty sure there is at least one of my knives in Australia.
Tyson, that micarta is aging beautifully. Sorry you weren't able to make it by this time around but we'll catch up next time.
It had been a while since I contacted Jared about building me a knife. I had specified a half congress, but I wasn't sure when it would happen. Jared contacted me to ask if the interest was still the, which it was. I wasn't to particular about the handle material, as I knew Jared would come up with something different. He told me he had some coconut husk micarta that he would like to use, and I was intrigued. The knife came today, and I was blown away. It is different than anything I have seen, but works so well with the knife. under the micarta is blak and white G10( the white almost looks light blue). Here are Jared's pics of the knife-enjoy:![]()
