Man - Looks like I will be moving in about 3 weeks!! Yikes.............

Pray that I have patience my friends.I hate moving ;)

The new house will have plenty of yard for a new shop to be put up an more room in the house. It will be a good move in the long run :)

So if I drop off the face of the earth for a while I'll be back.............

here is my moving present to myself.
This is what I am calling The Personal

Its just under 8" overall with a blade of 3 1/2"
Satin 0-1 3/16" flat ground with black G-10
My first knife for myself in a long time :)

Good luck to ya buddy. Moving sucks. The knife looks great.:thumbup: Looks like a hollow grind?

Brian,
Man that's a great set of boots! Could be somewhat uncomfortable to wear with that sweet looking knife sticking out of them tho.:D Looks like it would be very comfortable in the hand...The knife, not the boots. Not sure I would want the boots in my hand.

;) hey.........I wear those boots every day :D I am on my 3rd pair in about 15 years :thumbup: I am about due another huh? ;)
 
Looks like we are moving the same weekend. Although moving is a pain in the ass, I will be glad to no longer work out of the basement. I'll have a garage once again. I can't wait to see how hard it is to get all of that shop equipment back up the stairs.....

Hope your move goes well Brian.

Scott....its a flat grind. Keeping that bevel straight it tough!

I'm sure it's not that, probably the way the light is hitting the blade.:)

That is a great looking knife. Is that black G10 the canvas type? Best of luck on your move.
 
I love the design of that knife! It looks like a great field/utility knife that would work for camp cooking, and about any chore. Phil
 
its just standard G-10. It will have a pattern like Micarta if you grind into it some.

Scott - I love the look that hollow grinds have. This stock is 3/16" so the flat has a steeper transition and it over exagerates the light so the grinds really pop :)
 
Hey Brian, when you get ready to build a new shop give me a call, i will load up the air nailer, some tools and a few friends and we will head up there and have a shop raising!!! Good luck with the new place! I am sure when you clean up your shop to move you will find all sorts of stuff you forgot you had!

Three knifemakers moving! I am closing on the 22nd, moving the following week! Good luck! I am currently dismantling my shop....
 
i like the knife!!:cool: :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool:

Three pair in 15 years??? You must be mighty light on your feet, I usually wear out three pair a year....

That's about like me. I will typically wear a pair of boots for about 6-7 years. Even when I was in the Air Force, I rarely wore boots out. I guess it sall the differences in our stride.
 
Good luck with the move Brian! If knifemakers didn't move once in a while, their shops would never get cleaned :)
 
Brian, good going! A new house from all those great knives you've sold in the last couple of years! Hope the move goes well. Probably will lose a few things initially but they'll show up later on. Hurry and get that new shop built!
