The Model #1's

[Redmeadow Knives]

Who snagged the drop point?

The Drop point went to my neighbor. I'll be doing a small batch after these three are done. Won't be taking custom orders, but we'll work a Dibs list.

 

[Melvin-Purvis]

Danke. Your photography is getting better.

I've had the A/I Bowie on the dining room table for so long now, Sandi is probably thinking it's going to be the turkey carver; just waiting for the sun to peek out so I's can take some photos - the way things are looking, it may be the Independence Day brisket...

We're almost 60 degrees and blue skies, I think last year it was -20° around this time of year.

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!

[Melvin-Purvis]

Blue skies? I heard about that phenomenon once, but find it kinda hard to believe...

Thin bronze guards are rough fit, they'lll be backed with the Amboyna.

These will be pretty lightweight knives with the thin guard material and stacked leather. They're around 8.75" OAL, with a 3.75" cutting edge (4.25" tip to guard). The guards will act more like bolsters, there won't be a large finger curl to them.

Happy Thanksgiving, John! As usual. Looking fantastic.

Happy Thanksgiving Chris!

Gotcha Chris, I'll see what I can do
Another grit to go on the handsanding this is at 600.

 

[Melvin-Purvis]

Very clean design!

A run of three Corsairs might fit in well with what I have planned after these initial #1's.

 

[Redmeadow Knives]

Some final fitting of the guards and we'll get to soldering.

 

[Melvin-Purvis]

Can't believe I missed out on this initial run. My game sucks. #clappingfromthecheapseats

 

[Redmeadow Knives]

I'm going to be doing a run of three after this, there's two Dibs open there. The first six will be tied with the amboyna burl, after that it will change.

 

[Melvin-Purvis]

Really? You had to go there, really? Fine, dibs; now down to one...



Drop point. If your neighbor needs more time, he can swap spots with me. I'll buy him a libation to hold him over as a way of saying thanks...

 

[Rupestris]

Just when I'm 99% convinced that I have enough knives to last 20 lifetimes, you post stuff like this. Gorgeous.

No rush at all.
