A very nice variety of viKtims!!

This will be interesting to see all 10 flavors - and also to see as people use them and how they patina over time.

I will be using my dressed up model a lot - I expect it to be a real beaut - and with a nice Rayban sheath it should be very woods friendly too!

Thanks for posting this thread Mr. K!!

Considering the amount of abuse that the ViKtim took would equate to several lifetimes of normal use, there should be many generations of happy owners for each of these!
 
thanks for making mine the best John! :p

seriously though...these all look great. i love the mesquite on mine, but i'll tell ya...i like the green canvas micarta versions. would like to try one in brown canvas micarta. how about a #11 John?? ;)
 
I thought it was kind of strange that nobody ordered brown or black micarta.
 
If I could ever afford one, I'd get it in ironwood. Gotta sell some stuff! Nice set of knives!!
 
Hi Shay -

Yes - this was a special run that was done after the JK Knives Torture Test passaround thread.

I am positive you could order a viKtim, it will just not be numbered as part of the limited run of 10.

As far as I can remember, this run was the most varied in terms of different flavors of the knife, and it really shows of Mr. K's flexibility.

Shoot John and email with your wishes.

*** This just in - #7 (mesquite) is for sale in the exchange! ***

None in Ebony? How can that be?

Those look great. It's really cool seeing all the different handles.
 
A bit of news that pissed me off. The buyer of #5 (who had already paid for it) had to cancel, so I sent the money back.. So.....I have a blank, with thumb serrations sitting here. If anyone is interested, just let me know. It might take a couple of weeks to get done, depending on what handle material is wanted. Cost, with standard handle material, is $170 + $8 shipping.
 
That looks good. I love the scales.
