Dave, he does make a good blade. He does know how to sharpen a knife. Fuuckers are SHARP.
Ping pong balls for the win. Once you've wrestled everything else in life is easy. Dan Gable I keep my circle small, I’d rather have 4 quarters than 100 pennies.
Ain’t easy havin pals.

I've got a half tang canadian belt knife from him as well (half tang 10v). Really like it so far. Great quality and workmanship.

One of those in Magnacut is on my short list I saw that on the bladeforums thread referenced earlier. Did you happen to get dimensions? Blade length, overal length?
I can walk on water.......................but I do stagger a bit on alcohol.

I like yours too Dave but that yardbird looks like a great game knife.
I got on the list for one in Magnacut. Sounds like it will be a while though

Not a fan of the profiles they look off putting, but glad you guys like yours! They look clean and sharp if nothing else!

Nice to see more makers using them for sure.

Journeyman,
He does his own heat treating. When I talked with him he said he has taken a lot of queues from Phil as well as Shawn Houston. Sounds like he is in the right company if he wants to work with serious steel and thin grinds.
Hope to find out for myself sometime

Thanks for the heads up on this maker. I got on his build list for a knife via IG. I really like the shape of a couple of his.

IG makes it easy for them to post. Curse the algorithms, but it does show you similar stuff to what you are interested in. I’ve followed several makers just be happenstance.
