We could use a swedged Magnacut EDC pre-order with pocket sheaths...Decking steel remains a bottleneck here so I don't want that operation to pause. I need to keep steel in the pipeline and it's getting close to time to order more steel.
We're going to do another K20 pre-order. We obviously left a lot of frustrated demand there. But, even assuming we buy enough steel for another hundred or even 200 swords, that's not enough tonnage.
In addition to the K20, I need to order steel for other projects down road.
We are running basic five now and a new EDC starts soon. The Shiv is about off of all of the machines now. We have steel for a 10-inch chopper and after that, there's not much material remaining.
I want to revisit the super duty. Or maybe the HDFK? We ought to do that kukri. Help me think, what else should we be looking at?
K30 with a machined tsuba similar to the pommel
