Slimline Curr #1 - Finished Pics

Here's the first one i got done.
It's a Skeletonized one with high hollow ground 154 CPM blade,
small top swedge an and handrubbed finish. It comes also with
a moonglow backspacer and a new clip design.

The Curr frame actually has a "burst" finish similar (but more subdued) to what's on the clip but it's not showing up in the photos. I'll try do some better pics later.

Slimline Curr Run WIP - Blades basic grind

Below are some stopover pics from the current Slimline Curr run.
As you can see, i did the basic grind on the blades. They need to get the final touch and sharpness.
The silver G10 and CF onlays have not been contoured yet! When finished they are thinner. More pics to follow!

Slimline Curr Run WIP - Progress and Gothic clip

I designed new pocket clips for this slimeline run. They will sit up on two angle mounted standoffs. The gothic logo on the blades has always been popular, I'm hoping the goth theme works on the pocket clip. I think it works with the tribal onlay's and should look fine on the skeletonized versions.

I also redesigned my lockbar relief. It works really nice and will be perfectly consistent from knife to knife. It's on the inside just like i always make them.

I have LOTS of Currs ready to finish. More pics ad updates to follow!!!

Jacked Legged Dog - Mammoth Inlay

I finished today a J.L.D. Slipjoint with a deep etched Todd Fischer damascus blade. For the inlay i choose some wonderful mammoth ivory.

The next one will be with stainless steel and nickel silver frames and pins. Just got some cool inlay materials from MaseCraft as well.

Thanks for looking!

Slimline Curr Run WIP - Tribal Curr

Following pics of unfinished Tribal Currs. This is an option for a onlay on Slimline Currs.
In addition to the holes in the onlay and frames, i'm going to ad some "reverse bubbles" around the onlay where through holes aren't possible.

Due to the shape of the onlay, i'd prefer to use G10 in various colors or carbonfiber only.


























The CF on this one hasn't been contoured yet so it looks flat without any structur.

Slimline Curr Run WIP - Triangle Curr

Here some progress on the 09' Slimline Currs. Here we have the "Triangles Curr". My thoughts on this was to do something besides holes for a skeletonized frame. I'll do something on the insides of the frames that's visible through the triangles.
There will be Currs finished with the bare skeletonized frame, or as the usual option i can always do the round holes.
