This one's a bit out of my wheel house, but thought I'd give it a go. First harpoon EDC. What do you guys think?

 

[marc4pt0]

Never knew I needed one of these until now. You just keep bringing the magic, don't ya

Gorgeous knife - I really like your work. Just out of curiosity, I suppose it has to be re-etched if a sharpening is required?

Thanks! Anywhere steel is removed it will need to be etched for the pattern to pop.

[Haburn]

Somebody is getting a new knife.

 

[Haburn]

Hello.

 

[marc4pt0]

Dude.

My basement flooded today. I'm running a fever. In bed sweating bullets about new menu launches this week on top of this other crap. Decided to pop over to kkf and peruse, and this is the first thing I see. I mention all this jazz because this little duo actually makes me smile. And it hurts to smile right now. Outstanding work, Ian.

 

[Smurfmacaw]

We have to talk about the whole western handle thing!! I want on your list so we can discuss something special. I really like the profiles of your gyuto's, you have it nailed.

 

[2010ZR1]

These 2 knives are going to look great together in my kitchen. :biggrin:

Really sorry to hear about the basement and fever. Feel better!
Maybe you need a little cowbell?

You're getting good at this:cool2:

 

[Smurfmacaw]

What is the handle material?

 

[Haburn]

What is the handle material?

Wave mokume and carbon fiber.

 

[Haburn]

You're getting good at this:cool2:

Thanks, Dave. I'm working on it.

 

[Smurfmacaw]

Carbon fiber....nice stuff just not my cup of tea. I really want a petty or two and I guess I'll have to talk to you about the spot for feb. I'm kind of wanting a special set or I don't know just yet....when do I have to decide?

cheers
