Thanks, is it a four finger grip? Coolio, or that would make the handle almost 4 inches. Just right.

 

[JK Knives]

The handle is 4” long, so unless you have large hands, it’s a four finger grip.

Thanks for your time John. In the future when ready, I may have to get one. Just the right size.

After I get my results back in December, I’ll start taking orders, two, possibly three, per month. I’ll take them on a first come basis. I work in most weather, unless it’s really cold or hot.
Keep in mind I will only take money orders or checks for payment, and I will not be providing sheaths.

I’ll have to find my checkbook.
“Tell me you’re a millennial without telling me.”

I actually don’t mind making my own sheath, so this seems like a good deal for me! Thanks for the pictures- very handsome knives.

Do you have a favorite to make, John?

 

[JK Knives]

I have several, the EO1 EDC, and the Kephart. My Kephart has been featured in several magazine articles.

John's Kephart is still one of my favorites, so that works out well!

John, glad to hear your are getting back into the shop. A Kephart sounds like it would be a good addition to my collection as well.

Poor John just signed up for a bunch of work.

You all have no idea how happy I am that my knives are still popular! It’s a really good feeling.

O.B.

I’m only seeing about two, maybe three, months of work here. Not many visitors to this forum anymore. I can get a better feel when I post about taking the orders, and seeing how many emails come in.
I haven’t been this excited about anything for quite a while!

That will allow me to get a nice Horsewright (Dave Ferry) sheath.

That's wonderful news John. I've regretted not getting a Hurly Creek.

 

[EngrSorenson]

Could the audience have a picture of a Hurly Creek?

Mine feels really nice to carry with the rounded edges, no sharp corners, slips into the kydex sheath well for front left pocket carry. When it came time to sharpen, I had a friend thin out the edge a little. Still handles robust chores but slices good too. I also got a HC light which is really thin and light as a feather, so thin I experimented by having some tennis racket tape wrapped around it just to add a little girth, not that it needed it but just to see how it would affect my grip with a tacky feel, which made it easier to grab out of the sheath in my pocket. Two of my favorite JKs.
