Here are the first 5 Whiskey Pete Knives out of 16 ordered a few days ago. 1 is from a old file and the others are 0-1 tool steel. They have been quenched and are now cooking for a few hours. This is first time I have made similar knives at the same time.

Looking Good! Thanks for updated photo's!

I want one of each! (File & tool steel blades). Looking good Jimmy.
Thanks, Capt. Chris
PS: I plan on trying to get down to the shop tomorrow and bring you some handle material. Hope to see you there!...CCS

Capt.!...that one from file supposed being MINE Gumba!

Old files are still pretty plentiful 'round here, Gumba. Hope "one" of us is patient!
Best, Capt. Chris

The one in the picture is yours Guido. Capt, I am going to hit the local flea markets up next weekend for some more files. I am out at the present time.

Captain that light green material is awesome! As you would say, "I smell a trade".

I plan on being at the shop around 0600 for my number. I am usually the last to get there. Maybe I'll get under 40 this time.

Jimmy, Great seeing you and your work today at the stock sale! Us Cajun's don't make much money but seem to have friends in all the wrong places!!! May have a line on some old files.. Let me see if I can trade em' some crawfish!! I'll start checking on it!

Making some progress. My prototype with old brown micarata and a file style with black micarta. Both have brass hardware and black liners. The next one will have NASA green scales and SF green liners. Stay tunned.

NASA Green glued up. I think the Captain is going to like this one. This NASA stuff is a real "SON OF BUCK" to cut to size. I am going to need a better saw.

Here is the NASA green almost complete. The pictures just don't do it justice.
