    Finally dialed in. The cross-cut natural canvas one will be available from USA Made Blade very soon.

    I've played with the prototype up on Halfmoon Ridge, and I can attest to both the Grittin design, and Dylan's craftsmanship. This truly is a damned great blade. The length is perfect. The recurve is excellent. The balance is exactly like you want it to be. Phenomenal chopper, and a fine tool for general use. It's a sick knife. Well done, guys.

    Sweet! That cross-cut natural canvas looks damn good, I don't think I have ever seen that up close..


    Thanks man, Dylan definitely did a damn fine job bringing this one to life.

    Man, I've wanted one of these since I read Brian's write up. Are the others going to be available as well sometime?

    He has a dibs list already going, so he's probably going to make some with his batches of knives as he goes along.

    $350 which is an amazing price for the size of the knife and the quality of Dylan's work.

    I've heard that a lot. LOL. Truth be told, it's at least a $500 knife, but the whole point was to make it affordable enough. It's still not cheap by any means, but there's a whole lot more people that can swing the cheddar at $350 than at $500. Plus, you're a little quicker to use it and not feel like you're destroying some huge collector value. We want people to use the crap out of them.

    We have been playing with one all weekend

    I'll post up more when I have had some time to write.

    This is our first knife by Dylan and our first with a Griffin design. Nice job, fellows.

    Sharpest big knife I have ever been sent.

    I picked up the last one at usamade blade and am stoked to get this in hand and put it to use. I love me a recurve. I can't get over the listed weight of this thing, I have a feeling it's going to be nimble as hell. Firepower and mobility comes to mind.

    That's an awesome group shot.Those cross cut micarta scales are truly sick. I still have about a week of waiting since it has to cross the border.
