Early August 2026
1. "Barry the Hatchet" Beautiful Cocobolo #242 ($650)
OAL 11.0", 4.25" blade, Augmented patina AEBL Stainless Steel, Orange and white liner, Orange G10 pins.
First of its model. An absolutely killer camping tool. Superb balance. So very sharp. It really can chop well. Choke up on it and use your other hand to push down like a carver. I might just keep this for myself but - who am I kidding...daddy's got to buy groceries. :) It is so fun to use!

2. Brown Mountain Ash with Shimmering Blue TruStone Custom Inlay #243 ($595)
OAL 9.0", 4.0" blade, AEBL Stainless Steel, Black liner, Natural Micarta pins.
This knife is the culmination of dozens of handle geometry tweaks that eventually resulted in what I consider the most comfortable and grippy handle I have made to date. Also - the bevel is nearly flawless. This might be my best looking knife. There - I said it.

3. Nice Crispy Mystery Burl with Beautiful Custom Inlay #244 ($350)
OAL 8.5", 3.25" blade, AEBL Stainless Steel, Black liner and Natural Micarta pins.
Tried something new. And I liked it. Sweet little drop point blade that will get the job done and then some. Geometry of this knife really begs it to be used as an EDC knife. The handle has a bulbous little belly so I nicknamed it the pregnant guppy handle. The burl is crazy smooth and rich - almost like fine corinthian leather.

4. Baby Cleaver! with Blue Silk Oak and Mammoth Molar Inlay #245 ($685)
OAL 10.0", 5.0" blade, Augmented patina AEBL Stainless Steel, Vintage Micarta liner and Black pins.
This model has become one of my favorite. No other knife I make makes me smile and get all stupid as mush as this one. See... I can't even spell when I'm talking about it. It can nearly bout do anything. But looking good is a really strong point. That blue wood and the orange mammoth molar are a match made in heaven. King Solomon would have just loved this knife.

5. Kukuri is Back! Bocotee wood and Custom TruStone Inlay #246 ($725)
OAL 10.0", 5.0" blade, Augmented patina AEBL Stainless Steel, Vintage Micarta liner and Black pins.
My rendition of the famed Nepalese weapon. It is sporting a superbly voluptuous bevel. Has a bit of heft that helps propels the blade with an earnestness worthy of its namesake. It sounds cliche but this knife can do it all. Grasp the neck of the handle with your thumb on top of the guard and pull it towards you and it becomes a very capable carver. It just surprises me every time I pick it up. What's that my precious?

6. Another KA-BAR. All Dressed Up in Desert Tan Richlite with Custom Inlay #247 ($575)
OAL 10.0", 5.0" blade, AEBL Stainless Steel, Vintage Micarta liner and Tan pins.
The World Famous KA-BAR. This time it is all dressed up for the occasion. Superb symmetry on the bevels. This is a tough work-horse of a knife. I can see you - eyes closed, covered in mud, leaning into a muddy cliffside with this knife gripped tightly between your lips. Your arch enemy is completely oblivious to your presence. His scent and staccato inhalations are the only cues you use to spring into action. Your eyes open and with one swift motion you dispatch him with a single, swift drag of your Norris Knife blade across his....

7. Updated Cape Fear Bait Cutter in Glorious Walnut with Custom Inlay #248 ($375)
OAL 8.0", 3.25" blade, Oven patina AEBL Stainless Steel, Oven Finish, Orange liner and Tan pins.
I decided to take the bait cutter back to the drawing board. First model handles bait from a high angle. It does a great job with this repetitive task. Version 2 takes the bait cutter and brings the handle more inline with the blade. Now this is less of a bait cutter and more of an all around utility knife. Same HUGE lanyard hole and same curvy and beefy handle.

8. Mini Flechette with Double Richlite stripes #249 ($325)
OAL 7.5", 3.5" blade, AEBL Stainless Steel, Orange liner and Natural Micarta pins.
The minis as I affectionately call them - are so cute they may just be suitable as a neck knife. As they say - YMMV. I hate acronyms that I don't know the meaning behind. This knife sports giant, shiny symmetric bevels. It's quite the looker.

9. Vintage Burnt Orange and Burlap Micarta with Burl inlay #250 ($375)
OAL 8.0", 3.5" blade, AEBL Stainless Steel, Black liner.
My George Clinton inspired creation. This Funkadelic knife isn't just silver metallic trousers and laser festooned space ships. It is ready for business. The shape appears at first glance to be mere gimmick but oh no my pitifully uninformed friend... that handle feels like it was made for the human hand. Your grip just melts into it. Now if you aren't from Earth - I cannot vouch for the way it would feel in your 3 fingered claw-hand things sprouting from the back of your torso area. Bow wow wow, yippy yo, yippy yay - Atomic Dog indeed.
