The "Ask Nathan a Question" Thread

Hi All - apologies if this isn't the correct forum to ask this question in in advance. I understand the best way to pickup a CPK is through these forums, and that there may be some EDC 3's available for sale next Friday from surplus of the preorder run? What forum and what time would these be posted in? Thanks in advance, kicking myself for not discovering these knives back before the preorder was listed!

Watch this thread for the updates on the the next sale: https://www.bladeforums.com/threads/the-next-sale.1405869/page-238. Nathan will post time and location and what is up for grabs in that thread.
 
Nathan the Machinist Nathan the Machinist , about a year ago you were contemplating picking up steel for a run of a couple hundred Comp Choppers.

Now that Light and Standard Choppers are being produced, do you think there’s much of a chance of a Comp Chopper seeing production in the next year or two?

I’m stoked for the SC in 3V, but man would I love to swing around a big slab of 4V from CPK!

That's a good question
 
I still have a box sitting here I need to send you! I’ll get that out Monday. Gotta get that done before things get even weirder at the border. 😑
aw shucks!
Honestly, I'm a little worried about USPS when it comes to sending goodies to the US and that shipping will become insanely expensive, having to use couriers etc😬

So as not to derail, here's a question for Nathan; would you describe your technique for grinding your bevels toward the tip of the blade?
 
Good morning, Nathan,

What new knives or tools do you see likely being made within the next 18 months or so?

10-inch choppers

Field knives including the Fat Bastard

K20.1 wakizashi

Behemother (very low volume)

Semi-Integral dagger (low volume)

Kukri

Folder (rather than putting my name on it and making it perfect, which has been the holdup, this might be a Tanto and Rasmus Quantavious project, Big Richard Knives)

Comp chopper (low volume)

SDFK (high volume)

Brush Saber
