Two off the bench this week

Having fun in the shop after the Christmas rush. This first blade is one made from S35VN stainless and Australian gidgee wood. Gidgee is a unique wood...hardest I’ve ever worked, and it’s colored up like fancy walnut. She’s headed to New Hampshire .

This second knife is in my standard Hunter pattern featuring a stabilized redwood handle and CPM154 stainless steel. The redwood handle is stabilized in a “peacock” color meaning blue and purple tints. Sounds odd but it’s drop dead gorgeous in the sunlight! The colors really pop. This knife was not an order but, rather a spec knife. She’s up for adoption if interested.

Thanks for looking!

Sweet! That gidgee wood could almost give ironwood a run for it's money . . . almost.
Beautiful knives Hank.

Do you do custom orders? One knife out of a special shed?

Very nice. I've always admired you guys that make knives. I don't think I will ever have the patience. I grew up next to lone wolf near demorest. I could look at those knives all day. Keep up the fine work!

Juan is a great friend and maker.
