I have 4 more knives available today. 1 itty bitty and 3 of the new itty bitty butchers. I have made 6 of the itty bitty butchers and these are the last three that will have my tree on them. I do not have sheaths for these. They will be shipped in a blade sleeve like fiddleback forge's knives. I'm sure that any of the great leather workers here on the forum would be happy to assist you in having a sheath made i.e. bonafide, rick lowe, Herber, etc.

No problem. Can I ask a novice question...? What is the determining factor on the amount of taper to the tang? Is it aesthetic or due to maybe material thickness so you taper the blade more? I notice this one has a massive taper.
 
I use my surface grinder to taper tangs. The way that I do it the thinner blade stock will have more of a taper, as well as longer handled knives. The only real determining factor is the maker though. I could taper a 1/8" knife as thin as the butcher with ironwood. I just don't normally do that.
 
Jarrett,
Love the look of these knives and your knives in general. Just curious, when you designed this blade what was the intended use you had in mind? Thanks
 
I actually had several people on instagram ask for me to make an itty bitty sized cleaver blade. Minicleavers are very popular in the instagram community right now, and that is why I designed this blade.
