I've got 3 left I think that I am going to finish out with more drop points in a few weeks. I'll mark you down for one of them

Trade you for a 3.5 with swedge? Ho I forgot I’ll include a nice sheath that some Canadian made.

My Ember 3.0 came in today (a day early)! It's so freaking gorgeous! And the edge... Oh man, the edge! It is SO ridiculously sharp, and thin behind the edge. The full flat grind is awesome. think it's about as close as you're going to get to a literal laser. As always, the fit and finish from Josh is just out of this world. This is supposed to be a shop knife. The first scratch is going to be heartbreaking.

The blade is CPM-MagnaCut steel, of course. The handle features some inspiration from the late, great Bob Loveless. African blackwood bolsters, Loveless fasteners, Westinghouse, or International Paper green canvas Micarta from Bob's shop, carbon fiber lanyard tube, and red liners... Because in the words of Mr. Loveless "…every woman needs a little red lipstick."

Drop point with a swedge please Josh.

 

[moparsbob]

I agree, swedges really add something to a blade's looks.

 

[REK Knives]

Yep planning swedges on all drop points
