I cut out a few more bases for some Pew Pew Stands. I am going to have a bunch for sale at the Gunshow in October. I will probably do a few with the rock grinds.

Made some progress on a couple of builds for clients. I made a second set of scales for the 2 knife set. I made a set of solid piece scales for each knife. They are user scales. One set is maroon micarta and the other is Ironwood. I want the buyers to have a set of scales that they wouldn't worry about for when they use the knives. They are almost done. I just need to clean up the bevel grinds, make sheaths, and sharpen the knives. They are from my Nomad Series, the Woodsman.

Then the buyer of the Stinger with the abalone scales asked me if I made the leather mats that I take pictures on for sales. I knew at some point I would do that. I never thought it would be this soon in my journey.

This particular knife was donated for a benefit show to raise money for Highland Canine Connect (see flyer post for more info).

DM for more information and to order yours today.

Stinger I’o
A hawk’s bill design with pocket fixed blade or appendix horizontal carry in mind. Made of 3/16” AEB-L steel featuring Moloka’i Axis Deer Antler for scales.
All knives come with internal lined Kydex sheath with either a monoblock clip for horizontal carry. If pocket or purse carry is desired you can switch to a Slim Ulticlip for an additional fee.

Initial bevel grinds on the Pikal. It has a hollow grind main bevel. I think i need to go a little higher on the main bevel.

Just when I thought the OG Rib Spreader was going to be archived, my toxic moss one sold last week. The OG is the bottom knife. This week's sparked new life to it. Meet Rib Spreader 2.0 made from a Tanto Stinger blank. My buddy asked me to make another but a Pikal version off of this platform. If you are wondering what Pikal means stay tuned but basically it is a knife with the sharpend edge on the spine. Sounds like both Rib Spreader designs are getting uploaded to CADD for future water jetting.

Last night I finish sanded 10 of the 14 knife sheaths I made over the last 2 days. I also engraved 6 of the 10 sheaths I made. Tonight I will finish engraving the last 4 knife sheaths. I think i am going to remake the 4 sheaths for the G10 knives but do them as a fold over taco style sheath. Out of the 6 sheaths done last night 3 of the builds will be sent out to their new homes next week.

Weekend update. Worked on finishing handles on all of these knives.
