I can't wait to see that Karambit!

Third from the bottom: Is that a Tanto 2?

In 3/8ths, it would be SWEET!

Those big Tantos below will be something to see. I feel poorer just watching this thread progress. Nice stuff, Mr. O!

[M.Olexey]

[M.Olexey]

Those are just a couple I profiled out based on the Pig Sticker with slightly modified handle ergos and a tanto style blade. I got on a role with the tantos this time

Thanks! No model names for any of these. They are all just random pieces based on my other stuff with some modified lines here and there. A little experimentation

Martin,

I'm loving the new Persian design; looks really good with the V2 handle. Can't wait to see it finished up. You do come up with some great looking grinds!

Do I see a double edged knife w/ my name on it?

Looks like it was quenched in Tiger Blood

Another good show coming your way MO.

[M.Olexey]

Actually a special order that I am about 2 yrs out on


Thanks sir!

[BennytheBlade]

I know that a lot of your knives get carried for self defense as well as practical use (tho I think self defense is exceedingly practical) and my personal preference is to have d/e blade when I carry for that purpose. Hope to see more like that.

I wont even get into the big and 1/4 inch ones.

Nice.

[M.Olexey]

It definitely gives more bite to a short blade (like under 5"). Bigger stuff I think it takes some of the good weight out of the blade and reduces power potential. At least until you get all the way up to short sword territory. Self defense is absolutely what I would consider practical use.

I will be doing some more DE stuff as I clear out the old orders for sure.

Implement Of Destruction


I oil the jaws of the war machine and feed it with your babies
