Awesome! Hoping to cross paths w/ you at bladeshow
Warrior108
And btw, thanks for the g10 recommendation.
Warrior108 you sucked me in by suggesting the g10... so if you’re waiting for me to go first.... there are only 5 slots left! Odaon where you at? Ok - I’m in. Headed over to the thread now. Ah, black g10 on a fiddleback!
Get it!The peer pressure! Oh man, it's hard to resist!

I was really considering it hard, but had to go make dinner. Unfortunately, fortunately for my Blade stash, I missed out on the last few spots. Excited to see these finished up .Ah,...just having fun with this since a gaucho has been in my crosshairs ever since @Comprehensivist posted that killer review. And the Warrior108 g10 recommendation pushed me over the edge since its super durable stuff. But there are only 3 slots left. Now THAT’s pressure!
Congrats to the Fiddleback crew for a sellout, and congrats to all the folks who snagged a new Gentleman’s Steak Knife!
Since @VANCE has started a new thread specific to the Gaucho Buy, I hope this thread can be resurrected one day when it’s time for the next one. There were some good discussions and opinions presented.
Lots of cool patterns that were mentioned here are still awaiting their chance for a group buy, ie OS Karda, Lil Lady, Bushboot/Babyboot, et al. And since it’s mutually beneficial for Fiddleback Forge as well as the community here, I’m optimistic that everyone will have a shot at getting The One They Want in the future.
Thanks to @Fiddleback and @VANCE for listening, and caring.
Monarch perfect size for me
The F2 is probably my favorite knife. Hard to say... I flip flop between it and the OS Lady, but I use the F2 far more.I forgot to mention how awesome an F2 group buy would be The perfect fishing Fiddleback......View attachment 909176 View attachment 909175
I’d be happy to see something in the sub-3.5” category for the next one.
But......
I still can’t shake the idea of a matching set group buy. Ladyfinger/Lil Lady set or Bushboot/Babyboot set. I’d also be on board for a Monarch/Esquire set, Elf/Patch (if I’m not mistaken, these are siblings), or The Kardas. This way, we’d get the best of both worlds. Of course, it’s double-work for Andy and Crew, as well as double-money for us.....but I do believe there would be some among us who would gladly sign up for that.
You’re absolutely right. It was merely wishful thinking on my part.Sets will be tough for the forge and the buyers that would prefer one or the other.
