Its been too long since I posted shop pics. So here are a few. First, pics of the new shipping area. My shop is in my basement. This is a newly overtaken space.

Then some pics of the bench. Most of those knives go to Knives Ship Free. :eek:

A few ready for handle sanding. I have two dud Hunters last week. This one is one of them.

In progress sheaths for the BLBK's. I'll actually be done and shipping those tomorrow. They're all sewn up now.

In progress shots of a Woodsman for a review. Stabalized Walnut crotch.

Thanks guys! If I wasn't being productive, I'd be watching TV, and fretting anyway right?!

I thought you didn't do sheaths?

I try not to do sheaths, but I just figured those BLBK's needed to go, and so I did four for them. I wasted half a shop day one day, and two shop hours the next doing them, and did all the stitching while watching TV, so that doesn't count. And they didn't add a penny to the week!

I'll do them, but I don't like to.
 
I feel special now that I will have a genuine Fiddleback sheath to go along with all my awesome knives.
 
You've got quite the assembly line there. You're going to have to change your name to Henry Ford soon. Of course, your products a HECK of a lot more reliable.
 
When is Kinves Ship Free going to have your knives in? And will it be under "Andy Roy" or "Fiddleback Forge"?

I thought that was maybe why you were doing sheaths. You mentioned stuff going to his store.
 
Derrick is going to use his own line of sheaths with my knives for his order. I've got his 5 Woodsmen's handles shaped. Sanding starts Monday AM, and the knives should be ready to ship on Wednesday. His five and 9 more... Looking a ten thousand file strokes, and that much sanding all on Monday... THATS the blues.
