I got my F-Back a couple of weeks ago and have been using it a lot. Mine is O-1 with cocobolo scales. Its been getting a fair amount of belt time, I use it in the kitchen and all around the property. I'm impressed with the feel, cutting ability, and general usefulness... Got Fiddleback?

Oooh ooh I can actually play this game Finally:D

Well I will be able to real soon anyway.;)


Great knives guys:thumbup:
 
man, I am jelous. Great looking knives. I had a Fiddlebak on order for ages but when it was completed, there was a crak in the blade due to the heat treat and FB said he didnt like it and did not want to pass it on to me, so I got to wait some more.

I probably would have never noticed it so it goes to show what an upper class maker FB is, looking after clients like that.

Again, gret knives andd photos
 
Well worth the wait dude. I got lucky and scored mine on the exchange so I didnt have to wait....... but, I can say after getting it, they are worth the wait. Most comfortable in hand knife ive ever owned hands down.
 
My knife was part of that lot, but it is O-1 and was the lone survivor... FB e-mailed me to tell me what happened and ask if I still wanted the knife. He didn't want me to think that I might be getting a bad blade.... Stand-up guy, great knife.
 
You guys are great. A makers reputation is on the line with every knife. You can't allow a bad product out. Its sure to bite you in the ass.

Gundy, I'm going to get to yours bro. It'll be 01 this time!!!
 
I like them very much. One day I will get my hands on them. Maybe Mikes if I can make it to his place.

Andy you are right about reputations!
 
nice knife j williams

very good picture

I am glad you finally caught the brown truck and you are enjoying the blade.

P.S. I am filing a claim for that shipping charge
 
Those Fiddleback's are what turned me around to liking Nesmuk's even though I did my best to resist their charm. One of these days I will have to make an order! Very nice leather as usuall Mneedham. I like how that opinel fits in your PSK first shot.
 
Dang...all these look terrific. I like wooden handles usually, but yours looks great J!
 
Let me remind everyone that I didn't do that bone handle. That was a mod done by someone else to one of my blades.
 
I've got one or two around here, let me see:

The Nessie in this group pic with the red handle is one he made. It's my wife's....
