The "Ask Nathan a Question" Thread

Nathan:

Does the blade finish on the hdfk closely resemble that of the original field knife (more polished) or is it similar to the current utility field knife in production?

Thanks

Nathan, when will you have a list for tomorrow’s potluck sale?

Nathan, Do you have any thoughts about what might be next after the K18 & DEK1 are finished? I'm just curious.

That is a very good question

I don't know, I haven't worked out all the details yet, probably about $1,000.

We normally pride ourselves with making good value big bang for the buck utility pieces and this is going to be a deviation from that kind of value-focused work but it will be a nice representative piece that demonstrates that "Nathan The Machinist" is a proper Machinist that I will enjoy working on.

Limits per person or roll with the flow?

Also regarding your earlier answer about my potluck Q:

Please put that brilliant gelatin-like material in-between your ears to great use to devise a plan that say if you offer 3 of the top of the highest shelve CPK patterns simultaneously, the sale does not devolve into a shyte show by people going back and forth a few days to decide what they want! I have no problem with FCFS but I will lose my shyte when shenanigans. I really will so I am relying on you to be both fair and forceful.

...
that "Nathan The Machinist" is a proper Machinist ...

We have no doubts about that!
Thank you for your answers!

Any chance you Nathan the Machinist would consider giving us older guys a head start on the sale?

Did I imagine it, or was there mention of possibly a non-integral dagger?

No, because watching me losing my shyte and having a major meltdown will be an epic episode in hilarity
