Now available (web site will be updated today).
The knives are available with cocobolo (84.00 USD), Turkish walnut (94.00) and Horn scales (109.00). Stag version should be available soon. As you can see the rear bolster is only 10 USD more over the exclusive knives. The price includes shipping and lever sheath. Only 5+5+10 were made so far.

David,
My only comment on these knives or any of the ones with filework is that their all the same. They never change the pattern. It would be nice to see something different. I have one with the file work so why would I buy another that looks identical. Just a thought.

I suspect the "file work" is cut using a jig. So a new pattern would entail new tooling.
I'm sure they can recoup those additional costs by generating more sales. Those would come from the extra demand created and fueled by the need of the addicted to have examples of the new file pattern(s) in their collections.
Sounds like the proverbial Win-Win to me.

I know.. the only filework.. but can you imagine people would be e-mailing and requesting specific filework? We alrady have about 8 damasteel patterns... It would be impossible for me to keep everything in stock. We might change the filework a bit but we would be making only one version at the time...
