Nathan, I saw at least one DEK that was sold at Blade Show. Is there a chance we see them for sale this year or is the answer still no?

Hey Nate Dawg @Nathan the Machinist and Ninjo @Jo the Machinist, I know it’s early but has a date been set for yet for the greatest Shindig in 2026 ? A couple of your fans from Washington State hope to attend the CPK Get Together this year.

Nathan, have you ever made an axe head out of D3v? One would think it would be an excellent use case for this material.

It really would be. However the raw material cost alone, before I did anything to it, would exceed the cost of a pretty nice axe.

That's sort of what I was thinking too. Good to know, thanks!

Does that mean the axe project is DOA and I should just go ahead and preorder a wood bullet?

I’d buy one. Hopefully it could have an Osage handle!

I would, too. I've been pestering him for a few years now.

You're going to pay $1,000 for an axe?

Did you bump your head?

I paid more than that for a kukri.

Deal.

Have Jo send me a pre order invoice.
