Custom Sparrow #3 just popped up on reddit...

That's my favorite knife out of all I've made... Wish I could afford it!

You should sell your knives with "Puppy contracts", meaning you get first right to take a knife back if abandoned by the owner

SOLD

I've got a custom Ember 3.5 I'm selling, this is the last one from the previous batch. I wanted to have some fun w/ this one so added some CF bolsters to compliment the desert ironwood scales, features CF pins. The red 'pivot collar' was supposed to match the red (and looked like it would when in straight tube form) but I later found out that Maker Material Supply gets their liner g10 and tube g10 from two different suppliers so the shade doesn't match.

Anyway, this is Magnacut at 63-64hrc and does NOT come with a sheath. Full satin finish at 220 grit on the grind and 400 grit on the flats. handle is about .5" thick.

Price is $400 shipped to USA addresses.

And one disclaimer... it does have a super fine hairline scratch on the non-show flats that can ONLY be seen at the exact right angle in harsh lighting. I had the blade taped up for glue up and handle shaping/finishing so not sure where it came from but wanted to disclose here.

Hey Josh, are you planning another run of Embers?

Hey Josh, are you planning another run of Embers?

yeah at some point, I've got about 10 of each size already cut but I'm having a hard time funding the batches right now on my own... may have to do a pre-order. I have my $$ tied up in the Sparrow midtechs right now

 

[Big DJ]

I'll help you with a 3.5 swedged Ember in Magnacut and sculpted scales.

I hope this is ok to post in this thread. I wasn't able to be buying knives at the time these got started dropping. I am interested in picking up one of Josh's knives in Cruwear preferably. But first I wanted to know which models were offered in Cruwear? Were both the small and larger Ember both offered in Cruwear?

Thanks for and help and answers.

Hey JJ! I have done the 2.5's in cruwear, m390, and now magnacut. I haven't done any 3.5's in cruwear other than customs IIRC... The magnacut is basically a stainless version of cruwear/4v so I haven't seen a need for future batches and this way you don't have to maintain under the scales as much (even though magnacut WILL rust)

 

[Big DJ]

Josh I have a small Ember in Cruwear that I got from you. Wasn't the first pre order of small Embers done in Cruwear or M390?

Josh I have a small Ember in Cruwear that I got from you.

Thanks I read JJ's post wrong... I thought he was asking about the 3.5's specifically, thanks for the correction! I fixed it now.

Thanks for the quick response Josh. I have yet to try magnacut, but cruwear has long been one of my favorites. I've found I really prefer a non stainless in my fixed blades. Even though my two favorites Cruwear and Nathan's D3V are pretty resistant in normal uses for me.
