Jade G10 with black liners I believe. My picture doesnt do it justice either.

Has a very "pearlescent" appearance

 

[jlauffer]

What's the handle material on that one?

Jade G10...have the same one.

ETA: Woops, shoulda refreshed before responding.

here's an image clipped from the sale thread I picked it up from a couple weeks ago. I think it's a much more accurate photo than mine.

I'd not seen that before, but it's very nice. Looks particularly nice on the 2.5

Josh can really bring out the best in the materials he works with.

 

[Big DJ]

Amen

 

[adluginb]

Anyone know what the steel is on the 2.5 Ember for sale on here?

 

[Murphjd25]

It’s an early one adluginb so I’m guessing likely M390 or Cruwear.

 

[Sharp & Fiery]

Ya. It’s most likely M390, adluginb

If it was cruwear…it would already be on its way to me!

REK Knives any chance you will be doing another run of the 3.5 with swedges any time soon in the future.
Ideally something like cruwear would be class.
Thanks

Would it be possible to order scales for an Ember 3.5?

 

[REK Knives]

Would it be possible to order scales for an Ember 3.5?

I may have some extra but they wouldn't fit perfect because I grind flush to the tang

I'm making 10 sheepsfoot while waiting on the 940 reblade batch to get here from the lapping company!

Are these 3.5s?

 

[REK Knives]

Are these 3.5s?

Yep 3.5's in 20cv - ones from last batch I never got to

Thanks. Thought it looked like it. I was hoping 3.0. Look forward to seeing these come out.

 

[REK Knives]

So... Honest thoughts, I wanna do some fun stuff with the laser here and there. What do you think about this pattern? Will play around with more but you guys think this is cool or too much? Pebble pattern with blue in between

 

[Blues]

Too busy for my taste. (You know I love your work, so I'm sure you know I'm not dissing you.)
