Hey all - can anyone provide the status of Jesse Hemphill knives these days? There are some blades on DLT and KSF for sale but I am having trouble tracking down certain blades (cumberland). From my understanding BRK was making the mid-tech knifes and I think he had some interaction with BRK in general, but DLT had a note that he moved from Michigan to Ohio. Any idea if he is still making knives and what the future of the mid-tech knives is? I have some of his knives and they are fantastic and want more.

Doesn't look like he has an active website or FB page. Thanks all for the help.

Ok - my curiosity got the best of me and I put out a few calls. Doesn't look like KSF or DLT are expecting any more knifes from him. Also called BRK and they said he moved out of state and they are no longer collaborating with him. Given the lack of a website, no inbound shipments and no longer collaborating with BRK I am going to assume he is retired or out of the knife game. Its a shame. His knifes were fantastic and had a such a classic look/feel and were super usefull. http://imgur.com/a/P9ZYCiY

Hope others have better news or know more info.
