Come along to the amazing Summer Moot (21st July - 2nd August), a festival of bushcrafting and camping in a beautiful woodland PLEASE CLICK HERE for more information.
Now that looks like such an ergonomic and tactile user. Just the thing a personal knife should be. Lucky fella.
Cheers Ben,
Not thought of a name TBH, but when it's finished, i'll bring it down for you to have a look at
Or HSCTFK for short? Hmmm, it has a certain ring to it
Actually, i do like the Trunks Funk Knife part though...
YES YES YES! although I may have to employ a set designer now, as I have to move into the garage after waking up the twins with my whistle break beat section!
Trunks - that is bloody gorgeous! I love the fact you have your knife the way you want it - not another "me too" clone

Me too. .
That really is a thing of beauty! how long did you have to wait for it from start to finish?

Not long really Dave, I went over to the Portland Works openday on Sunday 6 March, met up with Stu and dropped off my prototype and things went from there...
... I think it's gone through fast though as Stu has been putting a fair few hours recently, normally i would think it takes a bit longer, but, as they say, good things come to those who wait

I'M saving for my first "bought" custom blade and think ive decided on stuart any chance you can PM me with a rough idea of what you paid for this beauty if thats not to personal?
I've been looking at his knives for a long time and havent seen a bad one yet lol

Dave, I'd suggest contacting Stu direct as there are lots of factors that affect price. Stu will be able to tailor your wants personally and work out the best way to get what you are looking for. He's a really great bloke to deal with and will help out no end.
A good choice Dave. I'm sure there are many skilled knife makers out there, but I'm yet to meet another who has the same attention to detail and is as personable as Stu. He really does make sure you end up with the knife you want
Jon's right, drop him a PM and start the ball rolling, or, even better get yourself down to Sheffield.
When I find out i'll let you know :yikes:
Stu did gave me a price initially, but since then, i have changed the handle materials & have added a custom sheath into the bargain...
But, the way i see it is, over the years i have spent more money (than this knife will cost) buying dozens of knives that i have ultimately been dissatisfied with, this knife will end that cycle. That is unless i end up like Jonathan D
