View Quote I'm mostly interested in the handles, specifically the ring position and grip size. On a curved knife like a karambit, the ring position makes sense, same on the designs with the ring straight on the end of the handle. This style is a different beast. This one hangs tape well enough but it's only comfortable if it's held just so. Attached File I'm trying to get something figured out that just falls into place in your hand. This slimmer handle seems better but we'll have to see how it is with scales on it. I'm thinking that scales will be 1/8" on this one as well. Attached File |

Today I rediscovered something that I purchased a while ago and never knew what I was going to do with it
Attached File I think it's a little thicker than I'd like for the design, so I may attempt to forge a piece thinner, but since I've been looking at Murray Carter's work lately I think I'm going to make a copy of one of his neck knives. I'm not sure which one yet, but it seems like a good fit for some Hitachi san mai(even if he prefers Hitachi "white") |

A more modern style than I normally do but it's growing on me and a copy of it will likely find it's way into my daypack. It's fun putting together something for someone and specifying the options exactly the way they want it. We're planning on CPM Cruwear for the blade and some navy blue/ denim micarta handle scales. Some sort of kydex taco sheath at the end but that's still on the drawing board. I'm putting the effort into both this and the sleeveboard slipjoint designs so that I can add them into my offerings the future. https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/59685/Minuteman_Render_2024-Oct-13_03-36-33AM--3348272.JPG https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/59685/Minuteman_Render_2024-Oct-13_03-24-50AM--3348276.JPG https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/59685/Minuteman_Render_2024-Oct-13_03-24-34AM--3348256.JPG https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/59685/Minuteman_Render_2024-Oct-13_03-47-47AM--3348289.JPG View Quote It is a nice set up.

You guys keep posting all those carbs put me over the edge!
Attached File The couple we hang around with sometimes are both avid cooks. Trouble is they are now empty nesters but keep cooking the same amount.[Good for us!]. Home made meatball and sausage from scratch sauce! We've been doing good lately on the free eats! They asked if we wanted bread to go along with it? Ha! My sister and her husband are coming to visit Thursday and there bringing 4 lbs. of fresh slaughtered beef! |

View Quote That thing looks awesome. I haven't had a great burger in a while. Is that knife comfortable to hold with both your pinky and index finger in the ring?(Not at the same time, obviously) Originally Posted By WIC: hell yeah View Quote View Quote I'll usually take inspiration from a design I like but this time I'm going to try my best at making a copy. In Carter's book, "101 knife designs", he has patterns and says something along the lines of "I've included these designs, they've done well for me and put food on my table, hopefully they do the same for you." That sounds like permission to use the design as it is to me. I don't think I'd make some to sell without actually asking though. Sy, is yours the original neck knife pattern? I'm torn between that one, one called the "clave" and one that's name starts with a T and has a blade shape a lot like a Kershaw leek. Could I talk you into measuring the thickness of the blade on yours? My steel for the project is 1/8" and that seems pretty thick for a knife of this size. |
