Tinker's folder

[hellize]

Good day,


I am ready with another tinker's folder. It is 13.5 cm long when closed and 23.7 cm when opened. The blade is 10.2 cm long, 31 mm wide and 5 mm thick. It is a san mai, forged of barbed wire with a 5160 core. Unfortunately the weather is crappy and so are pics, sorry.

Hope you like it
(this one is available)

Fantastic workmanship and design ( like with all your knives) but is it not uncomfortable to use ?

Interesting concept but I doubt I would carve a spoon with it.

Blisters.

Thanks : )
No it isn't. However it is funny that everybody asks that. It is only uncomfy if you are a lefty, than the ring is on the wrong side and pushes your palm. Actually for that same reason I did make a lefty version of it for a lefty gentleman

Well, how about carving some meat from a bone then?

Careful what you say. Remember:

A tinker's debt is always paid
Once for any simple trade
Twice for freely given aid
Thrice for any insult made

I have just stoles this phrase!

It's from The Kingkiller Chronicles by Patrick Rothfuss to give due credit.

Sweet! Is it worth reading?? I would give an arm and a leg for a good fantasy book right now

It is one of the best fantasy novels I've read in a long time. BUT it's a trilogy and the third book hasn't been released yet and has been a long time coming with no word of a release date yet.

Hmm... sounds interesting! Where can I get my dirty hands on them?
