He also said that many of the remainder could ship as early as Friday, so this means some of you will be receiving your knives next week!
Under 100 left, so don't wait! These will be gone before you know it.I'll be posting photos as soon as humanly possible, and I'm super excited about this year's knife.

#35 Drover? What is a drover?
Knife looks amazing whatever you want to call it.
Hmm, so I'm curious how/why that name was assigned to this knife then.
I'm also starting to wonder if I should have two of these instead of just one. Thinking the first one may get a lot of use.

A drover is a cattle/sheep herder I think?

Drover, a person who moves animals over long distances in droving (see also teamster)
Wiki's definition- "A drover in Australia is a person, typically an experienced stockman, who moves livestock, usually sheep, cattle, and horses "on the hoof" over long distances." Basically a cowboy.![]()
Is the nail nick for the punch on the other side? I'm not seeing it in the picture with the lighting.
