Sneak Peek from Fiddleback HQ 09/09/14

The "Dud" was a warped blade that we pulled out of our Research & Development drawer to test out the keyhole handle idea. This first keyhole I did very quickly (under 30 minutes) just to see if I could do it and what was involved - so we knew it would be a dud from the beginning. We'll post photos of it once its done and hopefully refine the process and make some more.

Just wanted to explain that so y'all didn't think we were putting crappy knives through the system.

Ken, thanks for the explanation of the "Dud". Love the keyhole handle. To me, any change that can further the display of craftsmanship and artistry, I am all for. Just another example of what makes each one of these knives unique.

Also a special thank you for the pic of the Bison, I know someone that is going to be thrilled with that one...

Ya think someone will be happy with it?!? lol. I imagine so.

Wow, just now took a look at this post. I think I might be having a heart attack! SCANDI ESQUIRES!

Thanks for the sneak peek Bud. I think that the Wasp has evolved to be part of the Sneaky family. Funny how starting with a Shank, then adding a guard allows a design to evolve.
