Yes. 12 oz.

And it is friken amazing.

It's a pretty cool stabbing weapon that you can also pry with. The thick stock and deep fuller give the section an area moment of inertia like a friken I-beam

Nathan, can you hold off on any more sales for awhile? I’ve been spending too much money. I don’t think I’m the only one. I’m close to getting myself into trouble at home.

Nathan,
I was doing some reading on the esee knife forums and came across a thread about CPK knives and read something that i found interesting and that was a post was from around 2016 but it basically said that you have worked with fiddleback forge on your and his knives with you doing the blades and handles and peters doing the heat treating and fiddleback doing the final fit and finish ! Again this is something i read that was posted way back in 2016 and so idk if theres any truth to it or not it just piq'd my interest so i thought id ask you about it ? Thanks for your time !

We are a machine job shop and we do custom work in and out of the industry. I know what you're talking about and it isn't any secret but I'm sorry, as a rule, we can't discuss work we do with our customers. I can say that we are a service provider for a number of makers, large and small, throughout the industry.
