    All thoughts of more knife purchasing put on hold until something becomes available in CPM-Magnacut that takes my fancy.

    Finished this little kitchen knife up for a swap. Nitro V and g10. Black and stainless always a classic combo.

    Just to add a Corolla to the Lamborghini's here.... Love the little NZ-made Victory Drop Point Hunter knives. This colour should make it harder for me to lose in the bush.... I'm definitely a function over form person...

    As an aside; I bought directly from Victory for $25 ($10 cheaper than anywhere else) plus $9,99 postage and overnight delivery.... It was delivered the following morning in a nice cardboard Victory box. Gotta give kudos for good service when it is deserved. It was only a single knife order; not an abattoir/freezing works big order

    The latest knife just finished, A Mamba in 1084 high carbon. Hybrid timber and pearlescent resin handles out of the Ukraine ( god knows how my supplier of this handle material is getting on now ).
    G10 pins, liners . Full grind . Off to a collector and his pool room apparently.... too pretty to use ??Name:  Kunac.jpg

    Duncan mate you are cracking along! I’m loving seeing your work, keep it up! I’m stoked to have one of your early knives, though sadly hasn’t been used in a while! I still get it out and admire it occasionally haha

    Hi mate, thanks for the kind words. It's been a interesting journey of both learning new skills and developing a style that is unique or recognisable to my knives.
    I have been very fortunate to have John Worthington mentoring me and that has accelerated the learning curve.
    However saying that it still comes down to time on the grinder and time in my tiny workspace putting things together.
    I am wrapped you have one of my early knives and are enjoying it. The forum members have been very supportive and generous making orders.
    Keep an eye out as there are more knives to come.
    All the best , Viper / Duncan
