Tim,
PM sent requesting a #4 Boner, and a #6 Slim. Hope I'm not too late.

Looks like I built enough extra blades in this batch to meet all requests (unless I missed someone).

Hard to second guess the late comers, but sometimes it all comes together.

I would expect deliveries of this build to be in Sept and Oct.

I do not expect to do another batch in this calendar year.
Maybe next spring.
I will still have some blanks and some sheet stock left for that if and when.

Thanks
Tim

Just hit a 3 week or so interruption in working on this batch.

Keep the faith, we will get going again. Just a little delay at hand.
Thanks
Tim

OK, I am about to start working on final grinds on the blades.

I will be getting with those who I do not have a final fix on handle material so
I can get ordered what I do not have on hand.
Thanks
Tim

That Michigan Slim with a dropped point looks like a very useful design.


Every day on this side of the ground is a win.

I'm not sure how many I ended up using it on last year. Some just field dressing, some all the way from first cut to freezer. It's a handy pattern.

I love it. I seem to get back in line as soon as he finishes them. That pattern gets used at least weekly in the kitchen and I liked it on the few deer I used it on this summer. I can’t say enough good things about them.

Yes, I do and damned that is a big blade. I do not plan on doing any more large blades
after this batch.

Big Blade for the Big Mountains and big slabs of steak it will be carving up my friend! LOL More than likely, it will be the last blade I ever commission you to craft for me, Tim. Make it a great one, Brother......it will have to last me the rest of my life!!!
