• Happy Thanksgiving to all of you! I hope that you all have something to be grateful for this year and for many years to come
  • America has reached 250 years, and I am grateful to be here, in the best country in the world. Thank every one of you who helps make this country a better place, those who have gone before and risked it all, and those who've paid the ultimate price to make the United States what we are today.

    Happy Birthday America! Let Freedom Ring for all time!

Official Blades I am taking to Peru

Hollowdweller,
Believe it or not that handle was done with you in mind. I think it was the Gossman that you did the handle on that made me ask Bryan for that roundness. Good observation on the edge too, it's already 3/32-inch thick and the convex he put on it should make it the perfect whittler. I will post some pics when I get it.

Hollowdweller, I wish you would hit up Stomper, Breeden or Koyote with some designs, I know you have ideas brewing that would be perfect for these makers.


Breeden seems to be chanelling my ideas of a good knife already:thumbup:;)
 
I like the handle shape on that KAT too. Seems like it would fill the hand well, and be comfortable for prolonged use. I look forward to pics of that kydex bro:)....
 
Cool. I'd love to check out that one and also the short ML Kephart. I have been really thinking about getting one of those:thumbup:

You got it, the ML is a full size Kephart. Right up your alley.

I've been writing and studying all night without sleep so I will post in a few hours.:yawn:
 
Its your review that made me pull the trigger on the ML keppy I ordered. Mine will have osage scales though........
 
Bear are you gonna do a different thread on the rest of the gear your taking or posting in this one. I'm really interested in that. I know I'm a PIA butt I would be intersted in everything even type of clothes, as I know your gonna be wet,
 
Hi all how are ya? Thanks Bear for the pics and comments.:D
Koyote yours is being heatreated today:D

Take care all I was going to say more but I got a truck to load with seed.

Bear you wake up yet?

Yes just now. I'm kidding but my computer shuts down when its hot. I refuse to use the air conditioner while training for the jungle. So I get a picture loaded and it shuts off. This is a routine. I hope later it will work.
