REK Ember fixed blade discussion thread

[DocJekl]

Does the winner of this lottery get put at the front of the line for those Sparrow pre-orders? Asking for a friend.

 

[REK Knives]

well I drew a winner... now we will have to await contact and see if a re-draw is necessary!

So I guess I’ll go back to sleep for another hour and check my texts again for a re-draw

I just jinxed the whole process…

Josh, I don't know if it would be to your taste, but this Random Number Generator , (middle of screen, about halfway down), allows you to select from 1 to the number of entries you have...and then generates a list (randomly) for those spots. That way if the first person chosen defers, you can go to the second on the list.

Not necessarily better than any other system, but it is random and saves you the effort of starting over since the list is already prepared.

Congratulations Jasper even though I wish it had been me

You're welcome, Josh. I used it some months back when I was doing a giveaway of 15 bottles of 1 micron diamond spray.

Came in handy and was the best of the various ones I had tried.

I feel lonely without the 3.5. Good thing I’ve got the 2.5 also.

I love how prominent the liners are.

 

[PokeIt]

Beyond ecstatic to have a quarantine on the way and hopefully fast enough to procure a 2.5 in coconut fiber when they drop

Just finished filing the jimping done on the two vanax ember customs

I think the jimping on the two Embers I have is the best I've encountered. Extremely secure and grippy...while not feeling at all like a cheese grater.

You found the sweet spot, imho, Josh. It's the little things...

(Okay, no more compliments from me this week.)

Thanks Elliott! This feels great too... As long as you chanfer the corners (which I plan on )

I think a lot of people make the mistake of sitting the round jimping too deep, which makes it sharp and aggressive.

Im pretty sure anything Josh touches, it just turns to gold.
