What's happening in the David Mary Custom shop?

[David Mary]

Did I ruin the surprise?

 

[David Mary]

Another semi secret build. This one is for a friend of mine who endured significant hardship last year but kept a great attitude and stepped up for his family just the same.

If you don’t yet own a Prevail, you should. I’ve R&D carried at least half a dozen of them by now, all different in some way. Loved every single one.

This one is, if I recall correctly, the third Prevail variant for this particular gentleman.

I asked permission to spoil the surprise for the Barowie and Flip Point handles. I wanna show em so bad

 

[David Mary]

Oh man he just messaged me back I hope he said yes

 

[David Mary]

He did!!!!

 

[David Mary]

Make you guys a deal. I’m finishing up in just under an hour, so I will show them after I get done everything I will do to them tonight. By then you should get a good idea the direction I’m taking

 

[David Mary]

What we have here is the basic geometry of two handles consisting of textured suretouch, with a carbon fiber inlay between camo G10 spacers with black G10 liners.



Wet my finger and gave the inlay a rub so you can see better.

 

[Wild Willie]

I'm not much of a carbon fiber guy, but that stuff is pretty cool.

[David Mary]

Respirator shaped dent around my nose and mouth. Good times are here again

 

[CBurgett]

David, you’ve outdone yourself again! Stellar work my friend!

And a certain simian socialite has acquired ownership of the R&D Flip Point and patiently allowed the end of my vacation before shipping, so now’s the time to stick yon makers mark thereupon to have it ready for the next postal run.

[David Mary]

Who said civilized?

Is that a left hand fixed blade? I’ve never seen one of dem before..

 

[David Mary]

Nope. Right hand chisel grind. But because I left the flat side with mill finish it made the most sense to me to put the makers mark on the beveled side.

Guys I just received a package with a set of scales from Idaho. I didn't order these, so it must be that one of you ordered it and sent it to me for a knife you have on the books. Please PM or email me if it was you, and tell me what scales they are and what knife it is for. If we already discussed it, please bump me in that conversation or email as well. Thanks.

ETA: they are oldmanwilly’s.

 

[BlindMouse2of3]

Not it...
