First batch of 2018 - Mark Reich - 02-19-2018

Here are a couple pictures of the current batch of 15 blades I have on my bench at the moment. They have been through initial heat treating cycles, trued and rough ground. The ones with dark blades are left, "as forged".


If you look toward production knife design, you will notice Wharncliffe blades are becoming quite popular. If you've been paying attention to what I've been making since 2013, you'll know I've been EDC carrying, and promoting them prominently for many years, which is why they are so popular on my order list today.
