Hammer Bill,

No gut hook. Which for me is OK, Had one and I didn't think much of it.

Gentlemen, as it turns out there aren't enough orders (at this point) to place a custom run again with Case. We are short on knife orders by 20 and sheath orders by 15.

Since I'm doing this basically as a labor of love and not making an industry of it and life is busy with business + with hunting and fishing seasons overlapping I need to make a decision on whether to let it ride for a little while longer or stick to my plan and call it a done deal.

So, keeping with the forum/democratic theme; is there any further interest in more sheaths or knives or should I call it a day?

Any info appreciated, thanks, Mike

A deafening silence, got it. Refunding PP payments and sending un-deposited checks back.

My bad, IF it ever happens again NOTE* make the sheath available with the knife orders. Rolling Eyes

Been an interesting and fun project. Back to reading weather patterns and wind directions Very Happy Take care...

I have a friend who is a blacksmith and just retired and makes custom knives. I have had several knives made and often use them as presents for landowners who let me hunt. If people are interested I will get some pics together and rough prices. We would not need a fixed order size as all his knives are hand made custom. His damascus knives are gorgeous and you could choose a blade style, length, etc. If there is interest let me know. Please PM me as well so it is easy to keep a count on interest. Obviously we would need to secure permission to use the 16ga logo as well. You'll have to forgive me as I have not been following this line of posts so if I am stepping on toes let me know.

James

Putz,

NICELY DONE SIR!!!

Thank you for making this a reality...the knives are wonderful! Bummer on the sheaths, it would have been nice to have one with the knife (as I understand your post, there weren't enough sheath orders to enable the order to be placed? I think that's right).

You've done a WONDERFUL job, and a thank you isnt really quite enough.

My offer of a steak dinner still stands. Redeemable at any time, travelling doesnt bother me a bit!

Thanks again, and I must repeat....EXCELLENT WORK!

I still feel bad about missing out on the first buy, but it was my own danged fault for not paying enough attention to this thread. I was dealing with a bird dog surgery/recovery issue at the time and just assumed that by stating early on I wanted in, I'd get notification on making payment and all that stuff. I did make payment on the second buy, but got my refund a bit ago. If there is a third attempt, I will definitely be in there. Putz, you've gone far above and beyond what we should expect another member of this forum to do and I do appreciate your honest attempt at a second buy. Maybe some day in the future it will all come together again and you can bet I'll pay more attention.

You did a great job with it, Putz!

A future consideration:

The 16ga.com item I have gotten the most use out of is the black bag with the logo. It holds all my shotgun accessories and goes along to the range and every hunt.

Your post made me sad because of that uplanders.com sticker. I’ve got the same one on my gunsafe. My all time favorite blaze hat came from them and it is starting to show it’s age but they’ve sadly been out of business for several years Sad

I’m interested if there is ANY way to obtain one of these
Knives. I indicated I was interested when the topic and now realize I was out of the country and out of touch when the orders were finalized.

The knives look great!

Thanks,

Doug
