That is a patented David Mary Custom 8670 field knife ordered by a maker who flaked out on Jarod Todd and left him with a bunch of blanks that I offered to purchase because I can turn them into anything I want to™

The name just rolls off the tongue.

That one on top has an oddly familiar profile...

Probably met someone who looked similar at a pot luck or something.

[David Mary]

Almost done my edc duo. My carry knives I started the week with got snapped up so I’m getting this out of the way in one swell foop so I can go, undistracted, into the ROFR orders you guys have been so patiently awaiting (with my thanks)!

I need a breakdown of that handle combo

 

[David Mary]

These are from scales I made a while back “for a rainy day”. I have enough left to make another knife this size or smaller. Burlap Micarta, and inlay made with Dymalux and a stabilized spalted tamarind scrap left over from a custom. Orange G10 liners. Stainless steel drinking straw lanyard tube and a mosaic pin up front. Treated now with wax from the Fixall and a paracord fob so the lonely pinky doesn't feel left out.

Good Knife Co. “Fireside” in 3/16” 8670, from left to right, wenge, frogwood, jatoba, wenge. These are only available through bikerector who can answer any questions you have. Please send him a message.

Double distal taper.

Very nice!

Umm… So, does that mean that you could be talked into doing a tapered tang on a custom?
