I’m starting to schedule September orders and deliveries now. As always, no payment is due until I get ready to start your order.
Order now to get your knife for Fall!
 
Well throw me down on the books brother. And ty_higg ty_higg I need to win so I can inspect your stitch work lol. Or I'll throw in some man leather gear to of some kind
 
Also I dont know what I want yet. I don't think I need any of them fancy steels o1 works great. Unless you need me to want a fancy steal then I'll give it a shot.

O1 is fine with me. I just need to know what you want by early August to order material. I’ll put you in as a hold spot.
 
Well it just came to me driving down Hurley circle. I'll take the original Hurley creek please
 
John, can we do 1/16th in O1 with a knife that would be 7-1/2 overall and about 1-1/8 tall, full flat grind
 
Looking to commission a Marbles Dall Deweese pattern style knife with a bit more belly than the original. The one place that I have found a blade thickness measurement of an original states its .07". Seems like this would be 1/16 stock, or is it just ground down to that point from perhaps 3/32? Is 3/32 X 1-1/8 flat grind doable? Your thoughts? Thoughts from the rest of the JK club?
Allegedly this knife with stag handles only weighs about 3 ounces??

I do flat grind on 3/32” steel all the time.
 
Do you have any nice Olivewood in stock?
What models of JK knives are often flat grind 3/32?

I order what materials I need the month before the order is due. All the B&T knives are flat ground, as well as the Improved Bowie. I’ve also done Kepharts and Nessmuk out of 3/32” as well as others I cannot remember. I would need to start with 1 1/2” wide steel, it’s not available in 1 1/4” or 1 1/8”, but that is not a big deal.

If you decide to draw something up, don’t use corrugated cardboard, use something like a soda carton. If you do, let me know and I can come by your shop to discuss it.
 
Hold me a spot for September and I will take your first ever Dall Deweese interpretation. We will iron out the small details soon.
I can make a pattern if you like.
PLEASE SHOW THE IMAGE YOU SENT ME TO THE GANG HERE, so we can have intelligent discourse over its merits or lack there of.

7 1/8” overall, 3 7/8” blade, 3 1/4” handle. B JACKSON prefers 1/16” thick steel, I personally would choose 3/32” flat grind.
