Tax Time Fiddleback Friday

[Fiddleback]

As always, my first priority is to thank all of you. Fiddleback Forge depends on y’all, and we hope you love the tool you buy from us.


Welcome back to Fiddleback Friday. I have a beautiful batch of cutlery to show you with lots of pretty Shadetree Burlap. Lots of good thin 1/8” stuff too. Thanks for looking!!! Unfortunately I can't get the pics to post through Fotki today, so I'm posting them through BF. It'll be confusing to sort out.

Additionally, I am taking the girls out of town to visit the family next week. Reception will be shotty, but I will be getting online to check this thread and to put the pics in correctly once everything is back up. The shipment of these knives will occur on Monday April 15. Tax day!

As a reminder that we have machetes in stock.

The prices this week are without sheaths. I am lucky enough to work with both Heber Ellsworth and Rick Lowe. Both make fantastic sheaths that are completely different from one another. I appreciate your support for them as well.

All of the steel this week is 3D Spalted 01.

Payment may be made to Paypal, or by personal check or MO. I hold all personal checks until they have cleared. This usually doesn’t cause a delay because they usually clear before shipping day.

Attention!!! The paypal address is: fiddlebackpayments at att dot net. Please describe your purchase in the payment notes.

Shipping is included within the US. We do all our shipping on Thursdays.

Now that the photos have been "fixed," there's no need for this post. Beautiful batch this week.

 

[rega25]

[lcordaro]

Hi Ocep,

Welcome aboard!

In Andy's introduction above he stated in part, "Welcome back to Fiddleback Friday. I have a beautiful batch of cutlery to show you with lots of pretty Shadetree Burlap. Lots of good thin 1/8” stuff too. Thanks for looking!!! Unfortunately I can't get the pics to post through Fotki today, so I'm posting them through BF. It'll be confusing to sort out. Additionally, I am taking the girls out of town to visit the family next week. Reception will be shotty, but I will be getting online to check this thread and to put the pics in correctly once everything is back up. The shipment of these knives will occur on Monday April 15. Tax day!"

I take that to mean Andy will square all the photos up once Fotki returns to service.

Sincerely,
Mark

I don't like the attachments either, but I don't like tapered tangs either (y u take mah steel??) but I LOVE THIS, so I'll take it

I'll take this

2013 0405 007 – Recluse, Black burlap with black can bolsters, Tapered tang, Convex on 5/32” thick steel - $310

 

[Ocep]

Thanks Mark!

The hiking buddy is listed as black burlap but looks like the same coffebag burlap as the Kephart. Those 1/8 beauties would make a nice matched pair for someone!

EDIT! my bad, I was looking at the other view of the kepharts and they looked like hiking buddies.....sorry about that.

 

[HWF]

No pics of the hiking buddies that I can see.

But I'll take this one:

2013 0405 005 – Hiking Buddy, Black burlap on black, Tapered tang, Convex on 1/8” thick steel - $265

Love that Shadetree!

DAMN YOU THURIN!!! Great snag dude, having a super busy day today so I'm just checking in now but I missed a beauty. I can't really afford it anyway but I think I might have found a way for that sweetie of a small slicer. If you're ever looking to get rid of that Runt shoot me a PM haha

Great looking batch as always, Fiddleback. The handle combo on that Recluse is really cool :thumbup:

 

[Shamr0ck]

dang it - got distracted and missed another Runt -- it's a looker too! Enjoy it thurin

Thanks I'm still trying to figure out how to cover it. Been looking for a Runt for a while now and posted that I'd take it before I even saw the pic just to be sure that I'd be first one in on it. The Runts seem to be one of the first to go.

Just realized I snagged that Runt with post #100. Cool.

There were FIVE knives that I wanted this week!!! Two sold before I got here...now someone else buy that Ladyfinger and the other Hiking Buddy.

I have been waiting for weeks for a 1/8 convex HB or Kephart.
