Not everyone knows Ken and I are making a line of knives here in the USA. As we are a year behind and info has been slow to come because of production we are finely close to releasing this one in the next 60 days.

We recieved a few preproduction knives at Blade but they are still not right. Ken is making adjustments and we will have a few soon and hopefully the rest will be done right. Will not go into what needs to be fixed but hope to have some in the next month or two. Still looks like about $350 right in the middle of the two Sebenza's. We have one at the shop and anyone who comes in is welcome to look at.

The boxs are in so we are pretty close!

I am moving email to a new pc so please hold off on sending any request but please post any coments!

Thanks

Dan Delavan & Ken Onion

I am also very interested in pre-ordering. Can you please give us the specs. Handle/blade size, thickness, steel etc.......
Please pm me and I will send you all my details.
Thanks

Looks beautiful, but I am a little confused - I thought CRKT was making a production Ripple - they had them on their table at Blade.

How does this one differ?
 
This one Ken and I were supposed to have out beofre the CRKT model. Also CRKT pushed ahead to get thiers out. We had problems getting parts made and Ken and Jeff are adjusting and reworking each knife to make sure everything is to Kens spec's. It is a production mid-tech like Chris Reeve with parts made here in the USA. Plaza Cutlery will do the shipping for all orderes but this is a new small project by Ken, Jeff and I and all money going back in to fund more projects. That is why we went with "Ken Onion Creations" on the blade as we plan to do interesting things and not all knives. Also Plaza CUtlery will be set up soon with Ken's sharpening system and Russ will be able to sharpen the same way he does which is a little diffrent.

We will have pleanty but are planning just one run at a time and will take a year to complete. The next knife we will not post any info till it is about ready as this project was dragged out so long. Most info is on www.onionknives.com . When the knife is ready you will be able to buy online form that website or call Plaza Cutlery to order if you do not want to buy online. Plaza Cutlery will be the only dealer for now.

You can email me for notifacation, but I still have email issues as I am moving my email to a new pc and am at someone elses mercy right now so watch the website also. email is dan@plazacutlery.com
Thanks

Great news Dan! Along with the Kershaw Tilt, this midtech Ripple is on my must have list for this year. Looking forward to the release and retiring my CRKT Ripple!
 
Specs with sizes will be going up soon along with the updated pictures and a shopping cart at www.onionknives.com

When the knives are in we will enter in how many are available and you can purchese off the website. We will have additional stock at Plaza Cutlery for those who do not want to purchese online.

Should be towards the middle to end of August.

Thanks
Dan
