The "Ask Nathan a Question" Thread

Guys stop asking for DEK pics.

I'm sure that we'll see pictures of them before they are on Friday sales. And I was asking Nathan, thanks.

 

[Comprehensivist]

Lol definitely not two weeks.

How about us seeing some photos of them? Thanks.

What would you expect, Burke, this place is full of CoCKs, you are gonna see a picture of one eventually.

It certainly seems that we have many more PRICKS (I.e. People Requiring Information Carothers Keeps Secret) than true big time CoCK’s who are comfortable waiting for unique CPK’s when Nathan deems ready to release them.

Don’t join the impatient PRICKS if you aspire to be a successful CoCK. Remember the wisdom of the Tortoise and the Hare. We all can’t be Marc, which is good cause to celebrate and use our meager collections of CPK’s for their intended purpose while we learn from the CPK masters.

I'm not impatient, just curious to hear if he knows something for sure.

That's a insightful and very astute post. One I can support and vouch for.

Nathan, let's say someone hypothetically owned something in 3v, and this same person owned something with delta 3v. If that person were to accidently drop their D3V item with a sharp edge on their second standard heat treat 3v item, then proceed to be an utter clutz and drop their hammer on top of it all, what could that person expect? Would that be covered under a hard use warranty?
You never know. These things could happen.

Edit* the hypothetical 3v object would hypothetically be between 60-62 hardness.... Hypothetically.

Nathan, aside from the SDFK what else do you think you’ll be releasing (knife wise) or taking pre-orders for by the end of the year?
Thanks,
Kevin

Will taco sheaths ever be an option?

Are the current Ti upgrade screws the Torx version or Hex? Do they fit all models or are there different size for different models? Wondering if the SDFK Ti screws will also fit HDFK. BFK, and FK2.

We have some of both Torx and Hex. The screws come in 2 lengths, but the standoffs are the important thing and are different for all of the 4 models you have listed.

Speaking of that Jo, Could you please tell me what you guys normally send out with the knives and what do you send out when people asked for extra sets of screws? I just wondered what you guys preferred, Hex or torx?

Nathan, Is the swedge on the S SDFK sharp enough that it will scrape a ferro rod?

For you, Timmy, you got it brother.

You should have asked for a spoon. A cheese curd spoon.

You mean a butter knife or a table knife?

People always calling table knives butter knives

"3V or not 3V...that is the question..."

This is kitchen cutlery. I'm making it with AEBL

He makes the ultimate D3V butthurt knives. Many of his peers envy him and wish to be 1/2 of what he is. He is more than twice of what he lets on to be so the ratio factor in my nonsense comparison is over 4:1 in favor of NtM.

Full disclosure: my egregious and unsolicited brown nosing will never get me an Integral Dagger and this isn't some reverse psych statement. Just facts Jack, yet I remain unabashedly shameless in my plot!

Oh, #stillnotnatahn.
