That Tanto is like a dream

Don't let Tanto hear you say that!

That was fun and challenging to grind. It came out nicely. Poker in the front, slicer in the rear

Blade 2024 pick up, was on Nate’s side of the table but I remember Mark saying he did the grinding, I just can’t find the post about it

wonder why it wasnt on his custom side of the table? Eitherway you're a lucky mofo and I hope to be in your will

Nathan's are typically ground lengthwise, Mark's, perpendicular to the blade length.

Lorien my preference is minimal, IWB, with a frog stud.

My thought as well. Regardless, I want one of whatever you come up with Lorien

I don’t think you can have too many shivs…

Very nice group pic there!

That acid washed, hollow ground tanto is absolutely insane!

Just in. My second CPK!

 

[Wishfulthinker580]

Got my Pirtle frog pins in. Also got some blued fasteners for it from CPK that I still need to install

This thread desperately needed a bump. I can’t believe it’s been dormant since July!!

Y’all ever noticed the shiv is basically a giant steel clad mosquito?

There are too few shivs to play with in the wild my man.

^^^ Scales on that sample?

Looks like that micarta is mounted over black liners? And I’m not really seeing the edge cut threads that are present in ECAM.

Maybe thick dark crusty VIP?

Perhaps a spine shot of the handle?

I asked Jo for some ECAM scales and heard back that they did not have any ECAM but had these. I’m assuming that they are VIPM with a black micarta base just like the ECAM.

They look and feel amazing in hand!

I’ll get some more pics posted here at different angles when I get a chance.

As promised heres some more (crappy) pics… I’ll take some better pics once the weather is nicer outside in some natural light!
