Re: Byrd Finch and Starling comparison

Holy thread revive macaroni.
Just wanted to say another appreciative word on these two knives. I carry them A LOT, 6 years down the line (and many more to go). Such great designs and so much versatility in a small package and at a very nice price.

Any news on the meet? Usually there's a thread around the 27th. My thumbs are still hurting from refreshing the main page :)

Re: Amsterdam Meet Announcement

Was really looking forward to meeting the friends I made the last couple of years, checking out the protos,... and adding the 2020 coin to the collection, not gonna lie :). But, I do understand the decision. I sure hope there's still a slight chance of having another ...

Re: A Tale of Two Hawkbills

Very interesting read. I have both the Byrd hawkbill as well as a Dragonfly salt with a hawkbill blade. Though I like both a lot, the Byrd does get carried more often. It's my yard knife and it really does excel at that.

Re: Byrd Hawkbill

Glad to see some more pictures here of the Byrd hawkbill. It still is my favourite yard workhorse. Lot sof fibrous materials so no plain edge knife comes close.

I thought it was the 'V' that was pronounced 'F', not the W oh well :)
You are correct.

I would assume that the W is pronounced as V as in German?
Well, no 😁
