Marc4pt0's Stuff

Kind of have this thing for western handles...

 

Whoa!! Nice lineup!

 

wowzer what a force of steel!

 

10 winners. Do you have a favorite grip.

 

For the most part, the Billipp and Haburn handles suit my tastes the most. I like a wider handle, but I also like a longer handle which Del's suits very well.

 

The "WAts Happenin" hang :

 

Nice photographs, too

 

Dang, how do you decide which to use every day?

 

Basically I just grab a couple and head to work. I'm a big fan of choices

 

whats the wa one above the Kurousaki? (7th from the bottom)

GOOD GOD!!! About the 450th time I've checked out this thread..... GYUTO NIRVANA! :cool1 ump :cool1

 

I thought it might have been the same knife but wasnt sure

 

That time again. I actually keep these photos on file for insurance purposes.
But for fun I like to share. My apologies for the crappy pics.

Starting off with what I still have from the beginning, waaaaay before I knew of the crazy knife world (and before internet):



Kramers and a couple others:

 

Awesome. Do most of them still see some time in rotation Marc?

 

All but the ones in the top picture. Actually, with the exception of the scimitar, the ones in the top pic do still see some "action", as in my wife uses them from time to time.
The scimitar I plan to refurbish.
The HHH doesn't really see much as that's the one I'm saving for our daughter (given it's background story).
As for action, I don't work the line much anymore, and I'm probably accumulating about a total of 5 to 10 hrs of heavy board time a week. There are times when I get a full day or more of prep/cooking in, usually when one of my guys takes off for a few days.

 

Wow. That bottom pic is insane. I can't say which is my favourite there, but one just speaks to me. All are gorgeous, though.

 

Good God, Marc, waaaaayyy jealous! :cool1
