Thinking About

[JK Knives]

Offering the Bluegill in 1/16” 440C. Anyone think that might be a good idea, or just me?

The bluegill is a great small knife! A couple years ago I made a conscious choice to cut back or I would be sll over one in stainless. I hope it sells.

That’s how I am with my guns, I’ve been slowly getting rid of them, I’m only going to keep two.

I haven't started thinning knives and guns like I feel like I should but I'm getting to the point it will happen.

I need to collect more axes before I'll feel comfortable thinning the knife herd

well, that's not entirely true. a number of my knives will be finding new homes this holiday season.

Bluegill, while I would like to have a short handy knife in 1/16 440c, I just cannot justify more knives under 4"

and I'm sure it'll start getting hard to justify any over that length soon enough... but perhaps I can rationalize it with the need to have more stainless steels

(feel free to read that as an invitation to make something thin out of 440c at ~5"+, just pllllleease wait until next year )

TWO!? You ain't that old, John!

I would think a 4 inch 440c 1/16 blade would be good. I have one from another maker in that thinness and length and it is comfortable in the hand. Or a 3 to 4 blade.

I would like to see one. I think it’s a good idea.

Someone besides me thinks it’s a good idea!

 

[RIP Dequincy Jynxie]

frankly, despite my earlier protests, I'd like to have a 4" 1/16 440c blade...

there's just the issue of having so many knives, holidays and only so much money

the 1/16 would cut really well and the 440c would have fine edge retention

 

[cbach8tw]

Mine from another maker in that thickness and blade length is very light and easy to grab, comfortable to carry. It likes to slice. Mine is 01, so a stainless blade would be nice.

I would think this would be a good seller as well.

I’ll have to measure some blades, but a 4” blade at 1/16th sounds really useful.
