ORDERS ARE CLOSED! 2023 BladeForums.com Traditional Knife.

I just received mine today, a nice dark one. The build quality of this knife is as high as any production knife I own. 6 to 6½ pulls, good snap, and the F&F is nearly flawless: no gaps, no play, all transitions from bone to bolster or bone to shield are smooth as silk. The pins are near perfect, too. What a knife!!

are the deliveries requiring a signature? Leaving for two weeks on Monday so just wondering.
 
Would you believe I'm still not past Sept 12 orders? Sheesh. Making progress tho, another batch out today.

I was one of the very early Sept 12 orders and #269 showed up today! 269 is basically 2 [of the] 69's that I wanted, as I have #69 Bunny. I did manage to break a nail trying to open the pen blade. I do love the color on mine.

Mine shows the little divots in the bolsters were the jigging touches the bolsters. I’m not sure if it is done intentionally or not. (I’ve heard both in the past). But if intentional it was nicely done very subtle IMG_5663.jpegIMG_5662.jpeg

The pinched bolsters are a neat detail too.
