I'll sign you up!

For international I prefer to ship insured, it can vary depending on where you live and runs $35-45 for insured express. I pro rate the shipping $9 as shiping in the US is included for a total of $26-36 shipped. I can also ship via priority at your risk, that usually runs about $10 more internationally. Just let me know what sounds good.
 
Insured express sounds good! And as i live in southern Quebec it shouldnt be in the upper portion of shipping fees! Thanks again!
 
I'm getting there on these, I'll post some update pics later! :D

There are still a few spots left, it is not too late to sign up!

interested but don't know much about Ti, how do you sharpen it?

It is easy to sharpen, you can use most setups. I recommend ceramic or diamond... for mine I just use a scrap of silicon carbide sandpaper.

Just sharpen the non carbidized side then remove the burr by alternating sides. I like a leather strop for burr removal.

Try to keep the burr on the smaller side as it is easy to build one up but will take longer than normal to remove.

I use my carbidized Ti knives for cardboard and softer items, they never seem to need sharpening. Cardboard will dull most knives easily but Ti can literally cut cardboard and softer items all day long with no maintenance.


After my recent test video I sharpened the knife, it took about thirty seconds at the most. I just did a few passes on 220 grit sandpaper, the edge is super sharp and cuts very aggressively.

. . . . a conversation somewhere in Cincinnati, circa 2-3 weeks from now @ 6:30pm . . . . . . . "Billy, you got a small box again" . . . "It's from your friend in Colorado" . . . . " PLEEEAASSEE tell me you did not order another knife, did you ???" . . . "Do you really have room in any of those drawers or gun safe for another one???" . . . "What does this one do that your other gazillion ones can't???" . . .
"Do you think maybe I should make an appointment for you to talk to someone about this???" . . . . :D :D
Be safe.
p.s.: Oh yeah, almost forgot . . . . please make mine a heat colored finish . . . ;)
Thanks Daniel . . . . .

Daniel,
Any chance of making the blade a bit longer? I've been using mine, and although it's been great, I have wished the blade was about 1" to 1.5" longer.
Thanks.

I may do some different versions of this model later but have no immediate plans.
 
Lots done! The batch is shaping up nicely.



Rounded Spines! very rounded for comfort, everything has been chamfered besides the lanyard holes so far

 
Wish I had the budget right now, but my pooch needs surgery. Great looking and I'm sure they are incredibly functional.
