I have pics!!!!

My apologies for the lack of posts and pics here, I have been as busy as it gets in the shop. This week I have 25 knives ready to ship or sell and will have more right after those! Things are looking great and I will be checking in more often.


These are at Empire Outfitters or shipping out ASAP... Tie Dye Friction Folders! Carved Clips...





Lots of Sheaths ready to go!






Frickies! Wrapped up...





Blue!





Ti Backpackers and Ultralight Campers! The Campers (tentative name) are super slim Carbidized A2 steel! Yep, A2 with Carbide!





Glued up and ready to handle shape! A2 Tantos and more...



 
Wow dude. So many knives, so much win. This is what you've been up to??? We need one of those hidden zoo cameras in your shop. See what the wild Fairly does in its natural habitat.

:D Yep! I think I have only taken one day off this month and am very happy with the progress.

I must have hundreds of hours into these alone! Most of the Backpackers and some Frickies will ship today. I only have two or three Backpackers left in stock and will be out for a while after they are sold. This week I'm shaping handles on the glued up fixed blades.
 
I love the handles in the first pic. Really cool looking! How do the color hold up for scratches and tear and wear?

Thanks and welcome to Bladeforums!

I'd say that the anodizing is as tough as the Titanium. If the Ti scratches so does the ano... technically the ano is much harder than the Ti but I don't think it adds any wear resistance to speak of. I think the ano does look cool if it wears, my wife Sara has a Keychain Tool that is looking almost stonewashed after a couple of years of wear.

It's not really a coating like PVD or Ceracote, the ano is more of a way of manipulating the way the Ti oxidizes.
 
Tantos look beautiful!

We still good on doing the rolled lip on my sheath?
