Vey nice knife EA!!

Thats a slick looking knife EA! I like everything about it. You should enter it on the BFC bushcraft challenge. I have used that material on my knife and really like it.

Ok I have been out of the loop a bit but what is the BFC Bushcraft challenge?

and thanks Panch0

Its a challeng on Blade forums in the Wilderness and Survival section. There quite a few makers making knives to enter and see how it performs doing things like prepping firewood, making bow fire starters deadfall traps etc... That knife looks like it would do great at all those tasks. I don't have anything near ready to enter.

It was designed for those task but all ten are customer orders and I have more steel coming, any Idea the deadline?

That's nice, man, Thanks, Good work!

That is a nice looking blade. I like the design in the scales, too. Great job.

Not sure but they already started testing the knifes I think.

Eh I could submit it next year. I like this one a lot and will use it through out the next year anyway. Swamprat and I have a couple of week long trips we are planning so we will have real world experience with them and not just something set up at the house.


Thanks guys!:punk:

Saweeeeeeet!!!!!

How much for one like it?

I sent ya a PM. Just dont feel right listing the price here since there are so many good makers on this site. Thanks for asking though !

That's a beauty. It's wonderful to be able to see your work.

Nice! Out of curiosity could you PM me a price?

Pm sent brother

flat ground 01? You win.

Nice knife.

I really have started liking this 01 and after fooling with the other grinds I find that I like the flat grind best for what I use a knife for: skinning deer, slicing meat, making traps and building fires and more often than not just cutten some rope or opening a box :laugh:

Thanks winter:thumbs_up:

Oh I love it. I am just so danged impressed with these types of skills.

Nice work! I like that handle.
