You see the way it is wider at the tip? I honestly think it looks kinda cool but was not sure if it would cause an issue when it comes to resharpening?
We leave extra meat in the tip because that is a weak spot where knives tend to break. We incorporate this thicker point geometry on most of our knives, it's a distinguishing characteristic of a CPK knife and I try to mention it on most of the sale threads. What you're seeing as a "rather uneven grind" is simply the thicker point. We have evolved beyond a consistent edge thickness across the entire blade and intentionally incorporate somewhat different geometry in different areas. It's supposed to be like that. We do that on purpose. That is not a defect or a flaw.
That’s awesome. And again I apologize if I offended. I’m really loving this knife. Sliced up my daughters tomatoes and grapes for lunch so so smoothly this morning. Thanks again for the info.
Hey no hard feelings.
I know your kryptonite
...and I know where you live....
edit to add: seriously... a couple days ago I filled a box with steel fines cleaning out a mill and I told Mark "we ought to mail this to Matty"...
I like the Vertical Kydex sheaths supplied, Not a fan of the Horizontal though! Regardless i find any Sheath offered for what Nathan Charges for his knives just "Icing on the Cake"So, my EDC2's finally arrived, and they are amazing. They are everything I could ever want out of an EDC sized fixed blade. I am extremely happy with the blades themselves.
However, I am less than impressed with the kydex sheaths. The fit and finish is rough to say the least and there isn't a good way to draw the knife. There is no thumb ramp/hump to push off of, and there are sharp edges and corners all over them. The belt loop's beveled edge is even sharp and would eat up a leather belt in no time. I honestly expected the sheaths to be a lot better than this. The sheaths on the field knives are far superior.
How does everyone else feel about the kydex sheaths?

How do you like the Unbuffed edgecut Antique? I have been tempted to try it.^^^No the edc sheaths were made by dozier the HDFK by Eric, MY BAD, I do not know who made the FK sheaths! Apparently too many beers and the little lady pestering me -Sorry I will edit-Thanks CataD
I like the tactility of it. Form over function argument. I sure do like the look of the buffed, but feel the extra grip the unbuffed affords it will likely be on my belt more often.How do you like the Unbuffed edgecut Antique? I have been tempted to try it.
EDC2's dropped the other day. Samples in edgecut antique, buffed and unbuffed variety. Hadn't had any time to put them to work yet, but I am very pleased. I know these tools will serve me well. Thanks to the CPK team for cranking out so many great patterns
