This awesome puukko is still looking for it's forever home. Its already house broken and plays well with others. Hard to find another as beautiful as this one. Hit me up and adopt this beauty today!Cohutta puukko
Osage, curly maple, bronze. 1/8 80crv2. Diomedes center seam included. $350 TYD. Used lightly, Osage is just starting to get some nice color.
I was lucky enough to grab that one. Been after a Cohutta for a while so will probably hold on to it but you have dibs if I decide it's not for me.
I'm still looking.
It's to be a special gift from one of my friends to another. I didn't think it would be this hard to find one in this configuration. There's a lot of Esquires out there. Help me out!
There were some blades from the various runs of CNC cut Mid-Tech field knife patterns, that were set aside or were extras (not sure). Eventually, these were completed in unique, hand made handle configurations remeniscent of the regular all hand made Fiddlebacks. I think they used up the Mid-Tech blanks some time ago.
VANCE
and
Fiddleback
did. It was the S35VN production Kephart Blade with a few wood and canvas options. They came with a leather sheath so someone possibly may have had the Kydex sheath made. I have one in really cool black ash burl with black liners and orange pinstripes. That could be from that particular run. I think there were 20 or 25 spots available for that. It’s a great knife to own if you get an opportunity to snag one.Are you referring to a “Custom Shop” Kephart? Every now and then Andy would put a “custom” handle on one of the mid-tech S35VN blades. These were referred to as Custom Shop. If you search back several years you will see Custom Shop Hiking Buddys, Kepharts, Dukes, Runts, and Camps. I believe this link has the knife you are referring to.

, I completely forgot there was a CS Group Buy!Yes, those were very fun Fridays! I stumbled on this forum sometime during 2016 and was blown away by all the content the Fiddleback Family posted and how helpful everyone was. Spent more time than I care to admit reading all ofWhat good times we had sharking these knives off the forum. And better yet, the link that J jb33 sent me will show you how tight this fiddleback family was and still is. All the guys gunning for each other. Helping out a brother or sister! Was a blast going after some of those! The intensity, heart pounding moment when that 3 pm (original time moved to 9 pm at some point) hit and you were sweating bullets getting all your notes copied and pasted and posted in what felt like minutes sometimes to beat your buddy at the 1-3 you wanted. YEP! you could claim up to 3 max and many of us did that! HAHAHA. The group buys
