Good morning, Nathan.
How is the Fireman’s stabbystick coming along? Any pictures of it? I may do my own render soon here…

Yes, I have been waiting on you to do a rendering so I will know where to go with it. Get to it man, you're holding up the works.


Until then. The K20 goes on the big green meanie next.
 
Still very indecisive on the final Shiv configuration that I want. What was the reasoning behind the double edge dagger option? Customer demand or a design challenge that you were interested in trying?

Double edged dagger ground point (with modified fuller) $325.

Yes
 
Where did you learn to be a machinist and become the genius of knife making that you are? Guessing not Forged in Fire.

I get the parts about wanting to be the best and the dedication to reputation. I'm curious about the tech involved.

That sounds like you are suggesting I get the double edge. Message received loud and clear!

I thought it sounded like "Get the $500 NTM lengthwise satin grind."

I'm sure there is someone out there who will go for "The Works".

+Lengthwise satin ground by NTM $500 (not a good value, don't order this)
+Double edged dagger ground point (with modified fuller) $325
+Heat color my titanium fasteners pretty and blue $15
+Mystery wood (I got a really good deal on some barely used tongue depressor sticks) $150
 
Nathan, I seem to recall you mentioning that the Signature Series SDFK was going to be limited to around 100 pieces overall - do I remember that correctly and if so, does that still hold true?

(I am trying to temper my hopes and expectations accordingly)

It was going to be a hundred but we lost a few here and there to scrap and some were made into those ridiculous Bowies. It's going to be more like 80.

Whoa... You are saying there are more than just the one "Bowie"?! 😱


Back to the original question - that's a bit of a bummer. Looks like I will need to preemptively put a WTB search out.
