Another installment of a Tuesday 'sneak peek'. Not as many pics as last week cause I limited myself to photographing the 3 weekly trays of Fiddlebacks and current WA Surls & OKT trays. Nothing earth shaking by way of FBF news - but I did see some really cool blades that should be in Friday's line up. I'm sure there's a couple 'Grail' knives in there for a few of us. :D

Under knife caddy #3, third picture down, the last 2 knives, one looks like a wood handle and the other one looks to have 2 shades of grey. What are those?
 
Yeah they look kinda like Bourbon St Skinners. They wouldn't be double edged would they?
 
Thanks for Sneek Peak Bud. The burl Runt looks sweet, is that Rosewood burl? I would like to snag of one those WA Surls Palmers. ;)

Gus had it correct .. those are Bourbon Street Skinners. They're uncommon and only come up every now-then. The swedge is not a sharpened edge.
 
Great pics as usual my friend. We do have two Bourbon St Skinners this week. All swedgey and good.
 
Thanks for the preview. Excellent knives from all involved as usual... but I have my eye on Allens offerings lately!
 
Thanks Chris! Maybe I can get both that way! Say, do you guys post at a standard time on Fridays?

we post the thread about 2:45ish pm EST and lock it..that allows for approx. a 15min "preview" until we unlock it at 3pm EST and then its live

Thanks again! I checked out your IG! I knew your knives looked familiar. I really like the EDU model! The new model you released today is great too. Looking forward to seeing one in all Micarta.
