Sal's Casual Bombshell Thread

[Jazz]

I want the Goddard and the Lava. I want the Goddard really bad.

- best wishes , Jazz.

[SpyderNut]

Right on, Jazz. What can be better than a dark green FRN handle combined with a FFG VG-10 blade? Wow. Talk about nice! :)

[JD Spydo]

In the immediate future I'm holding out hope for a fixed blade Hawkbill. Not only for one to work with but I do believe a fixed blade Hawkbill has huge collector potential. I would also like to see the original FB05 Temperance 1 model in the H-1 Salt Series. That knife with that steel would have huge potential I'm sure of it.

We're working on it now.

That makes 4 being worked on in this steel, if my count is right.

Endura would be a nice knife for super blue!

[xceptnl]

FRN with FFG you think? I may have to purchase my first Endura.

[kbuzbee]

FRN with FFG you think?

That would be my guess for all of them except the Caly 3, which I think is grey G10.

I knew of the Caly 3, but I can't recall what other models have been discussed in SB.

Stretch and Dragonfly.

Stretch and Dragonfly.

Dragonfly . . . :eek: How did I miss that? I thought all I have been hearing was that the blade length needed to be more substantial to take advantage of the steel. That is awesome news! Thanks Ken.

My pleasure. I may be looking forward to that one most of all of them.

I've been waiting for the SB Stretch. I recently bought a kitchen knife in SB and it is a fantastic steel. My only concern with SB would be rusting around the pivot area where it might be hard to dry out moisture.

[DeathBySnooSnoo]

I think that I will hold out for the Stretch...maybe we can see the SB Stretch with wood handles....more iron wood maybe. That would look so great once it had patina'd.

SB Stretch. Now I'm excited. No worries about rust as long as you use a little oil to lube the pivot.

I'd sure like to see the Delica with the w/emerson wave in multiple colors ...like a red, blue, white, orange.

I would have no problems with that.

[chuck_roxas45]

Would frequent washing affect wood handles?

[defenestrate]

With something as dense as Ironwood, it would stand up to quite a bit I reckon. doing a quick search, it is used for decking (the Ipe type which isn't as pretty but still pretty dense) and the extreme density means that it doesn't take stabilizing resin very well (and is considered unnecessary). would guess it is on the short list of woods to not worry about washing much (as long as you aren't using high pressure or steam near joints). Maybe someone else will have more info.

[chuck_roxas45]

That's good to know since a stretch in SB would be a great knife for me.

Sounds interesting

...
We make mule teams so we all can play (taste) what our beloved foundries make for us, when that works. Sometimes we make knives from new or odd steels. We're currently making our first cast 440C knife. A process that would be too expensive to make Mule Teams from. Then we all get to play with the piece without the high custom prices or long delivery times for a custom piece.
