Who has got a Bishop?

It is big, it is bad ass and we have one in the shop now that is screaming my name! Who has one? Would love to see some pics of this knife in use!

The Bishop is a lot of steel and probably a great choppa. I want one bad, more for the novelty than anything else since I can't find a way to justify buying one - and I've tried hard with a recent one that's for sale.

I don't recall anyone really sharing any photos of this one other than Walt and his sweet RLO piggyback setup.

Go for it Whitty, you have to treat yourself from time to time. The Bishop is within specs for cutting comps? That thing would destroy water bottles and 2x4s 😁

I don't have one yet, but I hope to some day. I have handled a few of them, and like the way they feel and handle. I keep asking the guys to screw one up somehow so I can take it out and play with it...but thus far they have been utterly uncooperative in this endeavor

We've got one hear too and it is really tempting to take it from stock and just start chopping stuff with it....

Unfortunately, I don't have any pics of it in use, but I do have a few that I snapped when I was taking pictures of a sheath that Rick made for my Great White Buffalo (already had the Bishop sheath, was for comparison).

This is next to the GW Buffalo:


Up close on the sheath:



In case you can't tell...I really like the sheath Rick made for it

Now for a few of the blade up close:



If I can manage to get some shots of it in action, I'll add those. This thing is a beast and fun as hell to chop with!

Man, this was a design I did on the fly at the profiling grinder. I was just trying to make a quick beater blade so I could show the new guys at the shop what our steels and heat treats could handle. Then everybody that visited started commenting on it and I decided to make it a model. It really did turn out neato.

Neato is not a word that should be used with this knife. Actually the words that should be used are not appropriate for this forum. I will own one soon and I will be using the ever loving hell out of it. I think when people see this knife in action they are gonna realize how awesome it truly is!

Just an update!

I have secured a Bishop from Andy and wanted to prepare everybody for a bunch of pics of this knife to come! I have not been this excited about a knife in a long time. Gonna be a lot of fun! I will add pics when it arrives.
