Made a kydex pocket sheath for the shorty…

Come on deer season.

Great work from Rick on the dumpling. This thing is very light!

Dave does a great job with the kydex.

I had a mixup with wood suppliers, and ended up having two beauty sets of scales sent to Rick. I was faced with a challenge. Try and choose between which scales to use. I wasn’t up to that challenge, so I said screw it, and ordered two knives. One for me in a2, and one for my son in 154cm, as he is 19 and may not look after it as well as I would.

For you guys who have had multiple knives from Rick, and both of these steels Rick is using, did you have a preference?

To be up front, I’m not a steel slut, and feel that blade geometry, and heat treat are likely more important than the latest greatest super steel anyhow. Maybe I’m wrong, but buying a bag of Manila rope and cutting it until my knife is dull ain’t my idea of a good time cool

I like his 154. Got a couple from Rocky, in A-2, I’ll never order A-2 again. It’s nothing Rocky did whatsoever, just don’t care for the rusting/discoloration. These have been used in saltwater fishin, so there’s better choices than A-2 for my work

Jud, I thought if I were gonna get two from Rick, I’d get one in a2 and one in 154cm. One of the sets of scales I bought are spalted maple, with a lot of really dark lines, so I ordered that one in an a2 Dumpling, and asked Rick to put a really dark acid etch on it. Figured it may not only look good, as it will pick up on the spalt lines, but the damn thing will be as discoloured as it can get, before I ever put it in my hand, so I won’t have anything to worry about in that regard. LOL. The one for my son will be a Bose Drop Point in 154 cm. Give em both a whirl.

I have a Bose drop point with vintage shipyard micarta coming at some point. Can’t wait to get it! I need that short dumpling though. May have to order another knife.
