Winter kith 2016/2017. WooHoo! My knife arrived!

So I pulled in my driveway this afternoon and saw a package next to my front door and sure enough my KITH had arrived. I couldn't open the package fast I was so excited. The knife I received was from mnavarro and he did a fighter style in w-2. It feels and looks great. I am not much of a fighter but fought a chicken tonight and won. I am glad I was apart of this KITH and this knife will get plenty of use.

My wife commented "poor chicken."

This is one of the few times in my adult life I feel like a kid again. I know what I'm getting this year, and am really excited to get it.
 
Sorry I am crazed my wife just informed me I don't have enough money to be eccentric.
 
Well, my wife brought in the mail this afternoon and she shoved a box at me and said "this must be your kith knife"
:) Christmas time indeed!

As soon as I saw the handle I knew who made this one. Someone I've admired since I started making knives over two years ago.
Josh, your craftsmanship is simply flawless! I guess I got my greasy mitts all over it already as you can see in the pic. Now I just want to wipe it down and put it under glass somewhere and admire it.
Fantastic work, both on the leather and the blade. Amazing really.
Thanks so much for participating and thanks for a great knife! :triumphant:

Everyone should have their shipping label now. If you don't, let me know.

Awesome! Glad you like it bro. Forgot to mention, the sheath is made by a buddy of mine. I wish I could take credit it for it. :D

Blessings,
Joshua
 
Mine just hit someone's doorstep

That someone was me! Kevin, this is seriously cool and I felt like a kid on Christmas upon receiving it. It's awesome and boy is it SHARP, I can't wait to use it in the kitchen. I'm extremely glad I was able to participate in this KITH and can't wait for the next one. Thank you again Warren for putting all this together and for all those who participated. :)

THANK YOU: Mark!

I just received this wonderful kitchen knife from Mark Brock. It is both practical and a work of art. The scales are excellent and contour to your hand. The blade is razor sharp and will be great in the kitchen. I would appreciated if you would post the scale material and the blade steel:thumbup::thumbup:

Thanks Jay .

That handle is ironwood. You can keep it up with an occasional coating of beeswax / mineral oil (food grade). I use Boos block board cream on mine and it works out great.
The steel is AEBL stainless hardened at 62 so it should keep an edge well. Convex grind should help a bit with food sticking.
 
Shipped out this afternoon.

Sorry about the delay.

E.T.A. is for Friday.
Gotta love fast shipping, today is only. Thursday and I got Leif's knife. Very clean and excellent craftmanship. It fits my hand perfectly. Thanks for the great knife Leif, I'll post some pics here shortly!
