Awesome description and pictures. I had no idea how many models there were for the woodlore.
What a great collection...
All beautiful tools but I would love to know more about the second one down, on your first picture?
Could you share some more details please? It's a lovely looking knife.
I love the scales , the rough finish on the steel and discrete markings.
Saying that I really like the new one. I like it's slimmer design.
Thanks for sharing Sir!

It's a knife hand forged by Julius Peterson to mark the 25th anniversary of Woodlore.
250 were made. Scales are curly birch finished with birch tar oil if I remember rightly.
Each one were numbered 1 to 250, I've got #156 and I'd be interested to know what number JD has.
As you say it's a beautiful knife and is a pleasure to handle.
Thanks for that Sir , it's a gorgeous knife...
What steel is it ?
And also how much do these go for these days , if you don't mind me asking all these questions? Sorry.
I realise they're collector pieces and I know I can't afford it but sometimes I just like to know...just in case I win the lottery...😁
...a man can dream...
Thank you in advance

Wow! Just visited woodlore to learn more , my heart stopped when I saw the price on this :
https://www.raymears.com/Bushcraft_Product/427-Julius-Pettersson-Hand-Forged-Knife-Blade/
Then I realised it was out of stock...

I've rehandled some of those. They bend, along the whole length very easily.... carbon core, milder steel main body of the blade.... not a fan.
I only know about that because all of them had a bend somewhere when i received them. Had to straighten them all.
Old school method used to make them... as a cost saver back in the day...... poor in comparison by todays steel and construction methods (mono steel, stock removal).

I believe it's O1 steel
As for price I've been advised you wouldn't get much change out of £1000 for a mint knife without a special number.
3 numbers have a premium price and they're 001, 025 and 250
I see... hence the price.
Thanks for the information , it makes sense now... 😊
Wow. I'd be too scared to lose it or damage it... But I love the rough look of it.😁
Thanks for the information , what a cracking forum this is.

It would appear that Steve Wade Cox has passed away.
A suspected sudden heart attack yesterday.
I'm sure you'll all join me in sparing a thought for his passing.

Is this true? OMG RIP, prayers go out to his family 😟

That is a real tragedy. The death of a skilled craftsman is always a great loss. He can't have been that old which makes it even worse. My thoughts are with his family.

Sad news, condolences to his family.
A few years ago I bought a real nice knife kit from him.
