Short Walk with Whittler & 3 Finger

Sharp Eye · Feb 27, 2009

After weeks of being house-bound, I finally had a chance to get out today.
Accompanying me were 2 brand new knives

My Bryan Breeden Whittler with Osage Orange handle and vinegar patina

My Brian Andrews 3 Finger with African Blackwood handle

The pair

On end

The Breeden Whittler is great at making fuzz sticks

and the Andrews 3 finger is pretty good for a small knife

I am really enjoying this pair:thumbup:
More extensive testing to follow.

Nice knives you've got there. I'm a bif fan of Osage, it looks great.

I'm coming to appreciate 3 finger knives more and more, that's a nice specimen you've got there.

Thanks for shaing the pics.

I have a new favorite woods bumming knife and it is the Breeden Whittler.
After weeks of being stuck inside, I finally had a chance to get out to the local park today(unfortunately without my camera). The Whittler was just the right size, weight and shape to do bush tasks well.
I realize that this post needs some photos and I will post some picts of the Whittler in action soon.
If there is something you especially want to see, let me know.

It's a great looking knife!

Next time we have somthing in our area we'll plan far enough out so you can make it and bring that blade along for me to check out.

That vinegar patina looks great. What kind of steel is that?

Brian Andrews · Feb 28, 2009

Hi all,

Sharp that whittler looks pretty good. NO PICS

LOL

I took mine out to day to for a little woods bumming time with kelly girl. I just took one pic today of it. I was in a hurry and boy was it chilly with the wind chill this morning. Yuck LOL .

I just love the feel of the handle.

I wish I would have gotten a pic of yours with mine before sending it out to you. But I did not think of it until I had sent it

That little 3 finger knife looks like a winner too. I just love the shape of it. While out woods bumming I bet that will make a great combo to carry and use.
