I noticed that there is one thread for many knives from a single maker, so I figured I would start mine.

Here are 5 EDC blades that I just finished, that are up for grabs if anyone is interested.

1095 steel differentially heat treated with temp and time, satin finish, 1/8" thick at the ricasso, 2.75" blade, 6.125" overall length, 3 have g10 handles, 2 have black micarta.

Those are some real nice blades. The one with the fat orange liners kicks azz.
So what kind of jacket will they be wearin, leather or kydex?

I'm diggin' the one with blue liners.

I think black leather sheaths would be best, but what do I know?

Thanks guys.
The black and orange one is my favorite too.

I don't make kydex sheaths, so if the customer wants a sheath I can make a leather one for them, for an extra charge. But they are up for sale without any "pants". I am trying to keep the price down and see how they sell.

IMO you will sell better with a sheath at a higher cost. A saddle shop in your area would probably give you a better price than an individual on a one time basis. The consumer world now is all about conveniance. I feel that you will miss sales if they have to go find their own sheath. IME people will pay more for ready now. Larry Parsons is one of the best for leather. Kydex is easy to make your self with minimal investment and there is no wait time.

OOPS missed that you make your own leather

A sale fell through, so I still have the black and orange g10 handle and a black canvas micarta handle available.
