Ohh man. I wish. Been following that steel very closely.

I have quite a few orders to get through before messing with that.

I saw you got a mention in that Cedric and Ada video of the 'elastic ceramic' knife that cuts more than 50% longer than Rex121.

 

[ShannonSteelLabs]

I saw that too!
Was pretty excited to get the mention!

Pics?

Was thinking he did post some pics and I just couldn't see them...that's been happening here and there since the site upgrade.

 

[ShannonSteelLabs]

I've been having issues uploading pics.
I've tried a few different ways. No luck unfortunately!
Sorry. I will keep trying!

 

[Currawong]

You didn't keep trying lol

Hahah sorry!

Workshop is going well. Unfortunately haven't been up to the shop lately.

But. Just Paid PHT for the Ztuff and 3V blades. So those should be back next week.
Tomorrow I will be heading to the shop to get some V4E blanks ground. And maybe some z-wear.

V4E Super APEX.
4.5 -5 inch blade

6 inch blade camp model
0.187 stock.
I need a name for this model I love it. It was based off a customer request years back. Based off a production knife with some modifications.

This is a slightly larger version with an additional change to the spine. And I love it.
