The new All integral City Knife is finally a reality. Manuela and I shipped a few of these last week, and the response has been fantastic. They seem to have a clean and elegant presence to them. It is the second of three all integral designs planed from the Lovett shop. The third and final version will be the All Integral NY Special. We hope to be able to present the NY Special at Blade this year. I am posting a pic of the city Knife, along with the all Integral Stiff Horn for size comparison. I carried one of the Stiff Horns out to the Loveless Shop last month, and to the Pasadena Show. They were well received. In fact, I'm going to make up a couple for Bob L. and Jim M. Just as soon as I can get the Chance. Well known maker Steve Johnson, is making a version for a mutual customer. It really made my day for Steve to want to make a rendition of them. Recognition from ones peers is a high compliment indeed. Hope they find favor here. Mike and Manuela

Hi Mike,
Nice looking little cutters.
Congrats on being featured at KnifeLegends,I was checking out the Stiff Horn on their site. :thumbup:
What size are they?

Very nice lines. Well done!:thumbup: :thumbup:
 
Thank you every one for taking a look, and the kind words. Hey Win, how you doing? Doug, the oal of the Stiff Horn is a touch under 6 3/4", with a 2 7/8 blade. Most are going out of the shop with a 3"' blade. The Little City Knife is 1/2" shorter in both the blade and handle. The Stiff Horn is 3/4" across at it widest point in the handle, with the City Knife almost 1/4" narrower. Both are ground from 1/4" Stock, with the blades about 1/8", thick at the bolster for the Stiff Horn, and apx 3/32" for the city Knife. each one is a little different. One really different thing about these knifes, is even though they are stock removal, and deeply hollow ground, they have full distal tapers. You don't see this every day in stock removal knives. Thanks so much every one for taking a look, and taking the time to comment. It is greatly appreciated. Mike and Manuela

You know, if you put some skateboard tape on the handle and then wrapped a little paracord around it, it would be perfect.. :eek:
Seriously, that is a SWEET knife.
