...as requested by DantheKnifeMan. Betcha thought I forgot;)

PEN Knife. Had to wait a while for it, but it was worth the wait. Very nice, well balanced blade that's heavy enough to chop lighter stuff and yet light enough to carry all day and not really notice it.

Chainpuri. Light, agile, very sharp. A little small for my hand but would make a great blade for someone smaller in stature.

KLVUK. I've sanded the front part of the grip, still need to do the back half. Just right in size and balance, I could use this blade all day.

Sirupati. Eighteen inches of razor-sharp whistling death! Well, for the blackberries anyway. And it did very well pruning some lower branches from my Western Red Cedar.

The Dui Chirra. No chance to hit anything with it. Yet.

Congrats on a nice looking collection, a good mix of knives, for different uses.
 
Thanks for posting the pics. We all love seeing pics! Very nice collection and great quality pics. Awesome!
 
Wow Will what a perfect little collection! That chainpuri is something to behold isn't it? I'm totally in love with that knife! That handle grain is mind blowing. You sir are a lucky man.

Loving that PEN knife man, what an awesome looking blade!

Tell me how that cleaver goes in the field, I was umming and arring about buying one :o

Thanks for the pics buddy :)
 
Glad y'all liked the pics:)


The Farm knife...the more I handle it, the less inclined I am to use it on wood. It's thin close to the edge, and a mishit or twisting withdrawal stands a fair chance of chipping the edge. It's not a delicate blade mind you, it's just better suited for softer materials.

However, it now rules the kitchen.:D

It arrived decently sharp, and a half-hours work with some 1000 grit sandpaper made it fearsomely sharp. After cleaning it up I used it to slice up 3 pounds of top round for jerky...I had to make a conscious effort to slow down, because it just zipped through meat with incredible ease...

...so easily I was scared I was gonna end up with a piece of finger jerky if I wasn't really careful.:eek:

Also, the zombies fear it already.

I can tell, because since I got it, I ain't seen a single one of 'em. ;)




I went somewhat beyond toothless to get mine, going to be gumming my tucker for some time...

...I ain't sorry.:D
 
Beyond toothless is where I live. Sometimes a man has to do what a man has to do ya know?
 
Haha gonna lose your teeth anyway right? So why not grind Em down on something you love :)

At first glance, that villager cleaver is straight up a kitchen tool, I wouldn't even consider taking that out with my hiking kit or camping, but on the chopping block it would be king.

All this talk about knives and Jerky is giving me withdrawals. At the moment I'm at the pub ignoring my beer, but totally going to play with my knives when I get home :o
 
Very nice collection. A little of everything and a blade for every task. Awesome. I understand the toothlessness believe me. On the plus side, you can fine chop your food with that collection and save your gums from too bad a beating. :D
