These are the basic series. There will be a signature series in a future sale.

This is a full 1/4" of Delta 3V goodness

7" blade length, 12 1/4" total length, 1lbs 1 oz (14.8 oz for the Signature series)

Despite the significant amount of blade on this fat girl it does just balance on the first finger. The handle is designed to accommodate a three-finger grip to get a little extra length for some use as a small chopper.

Sharpened 22 DPS, HRC 60.5

Highly corrosion resistant (for a tool steel), good abrasive wear resistance, practically unbreakable, and with the Delta heat treat it has good edge stability and will remain sharp in all kinds of crazy use that would wreck most knives. Comes with one of the best sheaths in the business.

Despite being practically unbreakable, our primary grind geometry isn't overly obtuse and our thickness behind the edge is pretty reasonable. These knives cut like you would expect from us. We know what we're doing.

$363 ($350 plus $13 shipping) for the basic series (this is a lot of knife for the money)

Your choice of black or natural micarta scales. There are also some special scales materials options (inquire with Jo) and also some attractive fully machined titanium screws for $15 extra if you want that.

This knife comes with our rough use warranty. If it ever fails for any reason short of intentionally breaking it (can't be done with your monkey meat, it's going to take some tools), I will replace, repair or refund your knife. You can't break this knife.

Hi Nathan,
Great looking knives!
For myself and others that are unfamiliar with the process, it would be nice if you could include ordering information in your posts.
People keep writing that they have emailed Jo, but I’m not sure who that is…

There were 40 knives available today. Sales threads are posted at 3:00 pm eastern on dates announced in the “The Next sale” thread over in the Carothers sub forum. When the sale opens you post a reply. One knife per post. There were 70+ posts in under a minute in this sale- so you have to be quick and lucky. Jo Carothers (Nathan’s lovely wife) will contact the first 40 posters (probably Monday) to verify options. Jo will then send you a PayPal invoice.

Awesome thanks for the info.

Silly me. I thought they meant 'backup' as in someone drops out, then they want that one.
