The "Ask Nathan a Question" Thread

Nathan the Machinist Nathan the Machinist It appears that to-date you have used CNC machining for all of your blade production, except for the final sharpening, but none of the knives have had a significant hollow-grind. I believe that all of the hollow-ground knives which you've made to date have been hand-ground, correct? CPK Mark CPK Mark 's CR35 appears to be a big winner, and I'm pretty sure that he's never going to be able to (or be willing to) hand-grind sufficient numbers to ever meet the demand. Will it be possible for you to produce a hollow-ground knife like the CR35 using only your CNC machining wizardry?

I'm eating a habanero and cheese pizza right now. Some of Mark's tasty peppers. These are way better than the store-bought ones. They're amazing. Very tasteful.

He brought in something today that was genuinely fiendishly hot. Looked like a Carolina reaper but it was brown. I don't remember what it was called. 7 pot pepper? Over a million scoville units. Maybe even 2 million. It was something ridiculous. Holy crap. We put it on our lunch. I had a cheeseburger with maybe 1/8 of a pepper on it. Beanie Boo put some on his chicken. We're sitting at the restaurant and Ben is purple and leaking fluids. There are some limits folks. Holy crap.

Habanero are really quite tasty. That's the sweet spot for me.

To answer your question, I like mushroom and pepperoni. But it needs to be good mushroom and good pepperoni.

Friday is our pizza night... my usual order is pepperoni , mushroom and bacon from different places... that's my standard to compare!

I add peppers at home , habanero is my favorite for flavor and heat

I think to much heat the flavor gets lost sometimes
 
And he can suck it on village idiot pizza! Lol.. way better than he rates it

This place is stumbling distance from my house(ask me how I know lol) and in the video shows my tattoo shop! (Amnity ink)

Amazing pizza and plenty of beer!!!!

There's a dairy near me that makes six or seven different levels of pepperjack cheese. A few I remember use habanero, ghost pepper, or Trinidad scorpion. There's one hotter than the TS but I can't remember what it is at the moment. The habanero one is just right for me. Good flavor and not obnoxiously hot.
