I have not been around much of late

Work and more work :)

Besides my day job I have been doing the nutrition in archery thing in a big way and I'm proud to say that I am working with the top professional and Olympic archers out there so I'm stoked

The kid thing, which I try to make a huge priority has been really keeping us busy.

At least three games a weekend, and getting our oldest daughter settled in at college lets just say time has been a fleeting thing.

Add in the upcoming bow season ...... I gotta practice :) and a strange fascination for a KTM 690 I have not had much time here.

Well I'm happy to say that Jason has done it

Rob is awaiting his, which is getting handled right now

Dave Ellis and David S blades are forged and ground

Joss's is finished

So he is in the home stretch of what turned out to be a very difficult project.

Those that received these incredible blades will always have something very special and I can bet it will be awhile before Jason plays with Khukuri's again :)

In the next few weeks they should all be delivered and I must say I'm glad that this one is over

So.................. We can start the next project :)

The next project will hopefully not be as time consuming as this one, but just as incredible.

It is our goal with these projects to produce the classic edged weapons of the world with design input from myself mixed with Jason's incredible mastery of steel to produce blades legends are made of.

The Knight fighting Bowie and the Khukuri are two perfect examples

Anyone that has experienced these blades knows to find better performing cutlery from any time period would be hard to do.

As soon as all the Khuks are out I will announce the next project.

It will be the Dark Knight Fighting Tomahawk and I can assure you it will be a classic Hawk with very well thought out features.

I have an extensive Hawk collection and have trained with hawks for years so we have taken the best features from many different Hawks and will be making a classic Hawk that will do it all :)

I will leave you with Coops wonderful pic of the Raj Khukuri with P Long leather

I hope the lucky owner does not mind :)

I would love to get in on the hawk project after the announcement. I've been following Knight's works for a few years now. I loved the previous tanto project. This khuk is also amazing. I'm looking forward to the announcement of the next project.
 
The nutrition and archery competitors sounds really neat. My girlfriend is competitive in figure competitions and her brother is really into competitive shooting.

The hawk project sounds pretty neat too :). Can't wait to see what comes of it. When you say traditional, I assume you mean it will have a wood haft?

It will be a traditional hafted hawk ....... But very special
 
Sounds great. Can't wait to see what you guys do with it...what steel, shapes, etc. Will look forward to further updates.
 
This road of the Khukri's has been a fun one to watch. The lucky owners, are just that. Absolutely stunning, and the Raj is just jaw dropping.

Definitely looking forward to the Hawk project. Hopefully luck shines on me for this one :p
 
Glad to hear you and Jason are bringing the Kukhri project 'home' and have another one to keep the juices flowing. :cool:

After being fortunate enough to get a Kukh, I'd sure like to get in on a 'Hawk. :)
 
Joe...could u put me on the list for the hawk...I might be in depending on pricing...i know u havent announced anything definate yet though....I couldn't send u an email or pm by clicking on your name...thank u ....Ryan
 
Hi Ryan

Guys when the first one is done Jason will send it to me

I will than test and make a video explaining the hawk and its features

I will post it here and than we will start filling slots

We can not price it till Jason makes the first one and he knows how much time he has in a piece

Thank you all for your interest and enthusiasm :)
 
What a great Project to see come to life, thank you Jason and Joe. I am looking forward to the next one!
 
Thanks guys so very much :)

I have been a blade , bow , gun freak since I have been a little kid and I am just fortunate rpenough to be able to work with the top players out there such as Jason

Jason truly is a combat blade smith that is doing work at another level and I call it a privelage and an honor to be able to pair up with him on these projects

The Hawk I promise will appeal to collectors and hardcore users

I do not want to say to much other than we have a wood prototype and as soon as he finishes up these last Khuks we will bring it on

I will be using video along with pics to intro this project so that I can better explain design features etc.

STeven I'm looking for a sparing dummy ........ I mean partner :) for the video you available ?
