Photos! Post your CPK photos here!

I get requests to sell a Shiv all the time. Pretty much, the answer is "NO" 95% of the time. But last Friday night, in handling this Shiv, it dropped from counter height, landed on the carpet on it's butt, then rebounded toward my right bare foot. The tip entered two inches above the sole, halfway between the ankle bone and heel. Trust me, the double edged Shiv is a NASTY WEAPON!

And it didn't help much that I was on blood thinners, either, lol.

I am now qualified as a "user" ((and victim) of CPK knives - and the Shiv in the image is outta here!

EDIT: Please note that this is NOT a "for sale" listing. This Shiv had a buyer the instant it hit my
foot.

Oh Bob! I am so sorry to hear that. I'm glad it wasn't worse. Take care of yourself!
 
It's as nasty as the Shiv is. I will be off my feet for another week, probably. So will again be scarce, lol. Difficult to balance this laptop on my stomach while lying down. This will be my last message for a few days.

You'll be back on your feet Fred Astaire'ing things in your neighborhood in no time! Balancing a laptop on your stomach builds core strength ;)

Get well soon Bob :thumbsup:
 
Dang Bob, that's terrible. Is the knife okay?


A double edge Shiv just like that was responsible for the only serious knife related injury we've ever had at this shop. Mark bumped one setup on the parallelogram we use for sharpening and drove it probably half an inch into the meaty part of his palm. They most certainly do bite.

I hope you get better soon.
 
when I was at the AKI in 2011, a guy there somehow stabbed himself in the palm of his hand with a bowie from Jason Knight, (aka; sharp as hell). I still can see him in my mind's eye walking around with a glazed look in his eyes with a cupped hand full of blood. Heal well, Bob
 
That's crazy Bob. Hope you get to healing and feeling better quickly:thumbsup:
Next time you have one of those knives from NC causing shenanigans let me know and I'll help:D
Cheers

Hey Bob, sorry I didn’t see this post earlier. Glad you’re okay. Hope you have a speedy recovery. I can relate to the blood thinner comment brother. I’m always a little apprehensive about cutting myself with one of Nathan’s scary sharp knives. :thumbsup::D
