Traditional Knife Photoshop Fun

My vote is for the zulu

My vote is for the zulu

Zulu over spear. Clip?

For a single blade, the Zulu is the most utilitarian, so I'd opt for that. In a larger knife, something with a little more belly would be my preference.

Ebony Pemberton Cap Lifter
View attachment 1032538

Just going back through this thread. This combo would be so fantastic. I'd love a cap lifter on the pemberton or a 14 so that I could fit it in my watch pocket. Like, now I'm getting worked up and mad that I can't go buy this right now.

Maybe a GEC #35 clip, sheepsfoot and crown lifter with a bail on one end?

Darren,

Could you do one of the Tiger Maple EO 85s with a clip point and a drop point (not a two-blade, but just two single blade iterations)?

Darren, your skills would be useful as we make choices for the 2019 Forum knife. It would be nice to see possibilities as we ponder the choices. I’m sure you have seen the original proposal. We will be able to choose handle materials, shields, and bolsters.


I’d love to see the proposed forum knife above with the addition of jigged bone, line bolsters, and simple bar shield of the knife shown below.

Would be glad to help Which jigged bone you thinking?

I’m thinking something like the beautiful jigging found on those 15 rope knives or maybe something like on my 92 Eureka jack.

Doh!!! So sorry I don't know how I missed this. Here is your clip...will do the drop point next JTB_5

Thanks Darren!

Can you do the 2018 Forum Knife with grooved bolsters?

Maybe a GEC #35 clip, sheepsfoot and crown lifter with a bail on one end?

I'm really sorry I haven't got to these yet guys trying to catch up on what I missed in this thread I didn't forget

Wow Darren, good job! Looks great and is quite helpful. Thanks!
Can you also do a mock up of the 86 with sheepfoot matchstrike blade in barehead ebony covers and propeller shield?

 

[waverave]

redsparrow funny but I was just working on that because I love ebony so much and wanted to see what that would look like.

...with end cap and bar shield.

Both of those look awesome, the ones with the jigged bone look amazing too! Can't wait for this one to come to fruition.

That was still very fast!!
Top pic is it for me!!! Barehead and ebony for the win!
(Although... the jigged bone is almost as nice)

Thanks Darren, you have a valuable and helpful talent.
