Due to the larger than expected turn out last time we're going to start doing larger sales but every other week. So today's sale is for 20 knives and the next sale will be in two weeks. Today's sale is for 10 of the new DEK1 pattern in AEBL and 10 of the others.





I'm continuing to sell off the last of our Blade Show inventory we've been building up over the last year.

You can choose from inventory we have already finished out, or place an order for something we haven't built yet and if possible we will try to accommodate as we're building out our inventory.

We have A FEW 10" Choppers, the Field Knife 2, a few 6" Utility Fighters, some 12" Behemothers and 10 pre-production DEK1 tactical EDC in AEBL

^picture totally stolen from Imgur because for some reason I don't actually have a picture of a Behemother, lol...
These are the first production DEK1 tactical EDC developed in coaboration with Lorien Arnold.

^ I know, I need to make better pictures of the new pattern but we're moving the shop and I'm over at the new shop space and they're over at the old shop still...

The DEK1 is almost as compact as an EDC. The handle is well thought out and works well as a general purpose utility knife but is also well designed for a reverse grip. You have to hold one of these to fully understand it, but this knife is brilliant. It will not fit XXL or very small hands. It fits me (large) Jo, (medium) and Mark (XL) but due to the nature of the piece it doesn't work well with extreme outliers.

The DEK1 in Delta 3V is $295 plus shipping
The DEK1 in AEBL with a well developed optimized heat treat is $275 plus shipping

Today's sale is for AEBL DEK1

First come first serve for the first 20 knives. If this sale is popular we'll have another in two weeks with 20 knives. It will be different inventory but if your heart is set on something we will try to accommodate it if possible.

To place an order stake your claim in this thread and Jo will contact you to finalize your order.

Price includes sheath (except for the Behemother) and shipping in the USA
If sales tax is due (due to your location) your order will be discounted so the total is the same as everybody else.

Shipping is already built into the price (BF policy) but if you get more than one the additional shipping will be deducted from your total.

Come by here again in two weeks for another sale.
 
DEK1 please! If you have any grey terotuff, I will love you both forever. Let me contemplate my life and try to decide between 3V & AEBL. I'll probably go 3V. (If either of the steels work better for ya'll, please let me know - I'm pretty split at the moment.)

Thank you Nathan, Jo, and Lorien. Happy 4th to everyone!

Edit : Whoops, I think I misread. Looks like the DEK1's today are AEBL. That's perfectly fine with me!

If it's possible to get an EDC I'll take one. If not you can pass this spot on to the next in line.
