host my picture
Decided to get a case for the knife. The Pelican 1170 case was about the perfect size. (Sorry for the fuzzy spots. It decided to start snowing as I took the pictures).

Re: Special Knifemaking Project
Quite the nice package. Maybe you should add this to your current catalog.

Re: Special Knifemaking Project
Thanks! Only problem is the case—or rather the cost of the case. It’d be hard to justify the cost, unless they’d sell them in bulk at a discount?

Re: Special Knifemaking Project
Oh I gotcha. Sorry, I thought you were referring to the case alone. Yes, I’ll likely plan on adding the JTR to my catalog. Need to get it added to my web site too.rgc wrote: ↑Wed Nov 16, 2022 1:49 pmI get that, but put the knife in your catalog, break up all the folders with this fantastic fixed blade.

Since my initials are JER you could, possibly, make a similar model and call it the JER-K.

Re: Special Knifemaking Project
Thanks Dan! It was a fun build. Yes, I would like to make more of these. Maybe try out a few other ideas on different handle textures too (now that I kind of have an idea of how it works, haha!)Manixguy@1994 wrote: ↑Fri Dec 02, 2022 7:37 pmWill you be making more in the future ?

Re: Special Knifemaking Project
Update: My younger brother made it home just in time for Christmas, which was awesome. We took him out to dinner to celebrate and then came back home to give him the new knife. He was so thrilled! This definitely made our Christmas a very special one indeed.
