"Wrath Of God" Collaboration 1st offering "WIP"

[Alphahunter]

Most of you have seen my collaborations with Peter R. Knives and Jake Hoback. Getting to work with these two guys has been a dream come true. The collaborations have been different with each knifemaker. Both Peter and Jake have such amazing and different skills I wanted to do a project that would bring the three of us together. Both guys have gotten to know each other and developed a friendship so they thought it was a good idea as well.*

Presenting the "Wrath Of God" . It's a 4 knife series bringing the three of us together. Peter will have 2 offerings and Jake will have 2 offerings. Each offering will be "Overbuilt" & "Battle Ready".

*Our goal starting out is to offer a Limited Run of each knife as the series is introduced. The three of us are getting a booth at Blade 2012 to showcase the series and our other projects. I'm in the process of building a web site to showcase all of the collaborations.

Peter will be presenting the 1st offering.*

Peter calls this the "Gut Shovel"!*
It's a Medium Sized "Super" Fixed Blade made of .300 thick s90v!

Each offering will have a Modern Bowie with Blood Groove Theam. Except for the CQC Waki by Jake it will only have the Blood Groove.

Looks like an awesome blade. Who will do the ht?

 

[rkmoore]

Also, handle material? Personally, I love canvas micarta but there are a lot of great options.

.300 s90v!!!!!

.300 next to .187!!!!

Blood Groove!

 

[peter r]

those are the preliminary wip pics!!!! i got the steel yesterday and started figuring things out.



the steel is .30 inch s90v and it is thick!!! in the thickness pic its next to a piece of 3/16 ths stock.


the scales will be held on with titanium chainring bolts and not glued. the handle will be hollowed out for a balance point about half an inch behind the forward finger choil. this should allow for better chopping when held by the main grip area and better control when chocking up for detail cuts.handle relief area will be slightly oversized to allow for easy use with gloves.





More to come!!

Thanks for the sneak peek. Looks like it will be a great project and I am looking forward to seeing the finished product.

Awesome! Love the design and, of course, the choice of .300" CPM-S90V stock for the blade! :thumbup:

Gentlemen, as these projects go forward, we will need to see Knifemaker and Dealer memberships. Until then, any talk of sales cannot be allowed.

General Knife Discussion is not a good place for this.

 

[peter r]

sorry esav, all is rectified and taken in stride.

on a lighter note, the pics continue.

 

[Esav Benyamin]

Now that blade looks way better in metal than on paper!

 

[adinb114]

Ill trade you my soul for the gut shovel.

 

[Alphahunter]
