We were able to complete the metallurgical validation on the aeb-l today

... finally...


not going to have very many blades left. This will have been a big pain in the ass...

Are those CF scales I see?

Does this mean you weren't happy with the AEB-L test?

Looks like CF. I really wish that would Nathan consider offering his marbled CF scales as an added option on some of his patterns, aside from rare specialty stuff for Blade Shows.

Edited to add: if he should consider adding marbled CF as optional handle scales for his upcoming first foray into folders, I'll buy one no matter what he decides to present. The blade can be shaped and as heavy as a hatchet for what I could care!

Happy to help you recover some cost, Nathan. Go ahead and have Jo invoice me for two of those damaged ones that nobody wants. You can even leave those scales on there.

Yea, sign me up for some carbon fiber!

They really do look like it, don't they? There were several UFs in the past that had CF scales, but imagine any scales left from that time period might be less than useable?

BUT if any ARE,......

You're the man, Nathan!

You missed the ETA part, grasshopper

 

[Nathan the Machinist]

How on Earth were you guys able to discern that was carbon fiber from that little piece that was showing?

Yes.

And if you happen to own a Rolex, bring it too. ...no real reason....

Breitling good enough?

He'll probably bring you a fake! Just giving you a heads up.

I've never cared if it was faked or not.....

Speaking of Rolex, the only one which would ever call my name is the stainless steel Daytona with white dial face. No gaudy all gold or two-tone, just that SS one. Too bad that they're bringing over sticker and have a long waiting list PLUS you gotta be a very good customer to eventually get one for invoice.

Nathan if you ever wanted to drop some serious coin and say treat yourself for your 50th, look up one of them as they're like money in the bank, much like your knives. You will never ever lo$e on one.

TL; DR: Daytona SS all day with white dial face
