I'm a little early with the September update, but I just like to keep everyone up to date on the progress of a few of my lastest projects.

Brend Merrill's Marauders

I had a few prototypes available at Blade. I sold a few and put a couple in good hands for some honest feed back. Now I am going to do another run and hope to get a few ready in the next couple of months

Brend Boot knife. (Semi custom version in S 30-V)

I have a large batch of these in the capable hands of Paul Bos and when they get back. they have to be ground and sent to Body Cote. I am still looking at 6-8 weeks on these.

I have just worked out a deal with Walter Brend on two Walter Brend / Bobby Branton CUSTOM collaborations.
This will be a limited run where Walter will grind and finish the blades and I will do the rest under Walters watchful eye.
This project really has me excited and I am proud that Walter has chosen me for this project. This piece will be priced more on the lower end of Walters full custom pieces. I will post pics as soon as I get the prototypes finished.

Vorpals
I have been slammed with orders on the Vorpal line. I wish that I would have held off on these until I got the Brend projects well under way. I am working hard on these to get these orders filled and will continue to do so until I get caught up. I will be getting a mention about the Vorpal line in the next issue of Blade.

So, please bear with me and I want to thank everyone who has something on order with me and for being so patient. That is why I do not accept payment in advance, except for those special projects that require a deposit.

Hayes / Branton Folder
I have all the parts and pieces cut and ready to go. Wally will grind all of the blades and return them to me for final assembly. It will probably be towards the end of the year before these will be ready.

Brend Custom boot knife

Walter will try to fit a small run into his schedule, but I can not give a delivery date at this time.
 
Thanks for the update Bobby.., please keep us posted...
