Great batch Forge crew! The trolling by Andy was classic.

I think folks missed the fact that some of the Production BFs were available. I'm surprised those weren't all snatched up quick.

If you don't already have a Leuku, this is a great chance to grab a special one! Check the Fiddleback User Pictures thread to see a similar one I used to build a camp fire. It is a really nice size... not as big as a chopper, but able to handle alot of tasks you might like a bigger knife for. The grip is secure, the tapered tang makes it light enough to virtually disappear on the hip, and as a traditional pattern presented here with the Fiddleback art of micarta bolsters and osage... this one will be a keeper.

 

[Tech-1]

Already bought 2 from this batch but that Kephart is sooooo tempting!

 

[newyork]

All of those are tempting. Especially the Asp, SP and Leuku.

 

[Mistwalker]

Ok, the 14 inch wheel has my attention Allen, I'll take the Kestrel, but it will be monday before I can make payment...iced in....

Thanks, Matt

Congratulations. Seems like only yesterday you were asking about how to build a compressed air system and someone chimed in about drains and slanting the pipes. I'm sure you are way beyond that on this move, but as I get older, LIGHTING, LIGHTING, LIGHTING!!!!

Hope to be able to make track rock this year as it seems like a great venue to meet folks in person. Just have to make sure the kids don't have soccer or gymnastics....

Best wishes!
