Wow, need a few million dollars in land? Is this NYC dollars or Montana dollars?
Ben, you have me questioning that ( and quite honestly other things as well).

I was going to divulge a lot of details but I won't as people don't like that. Land prices are available to the public.

I just received a new 5-6 this morning, I might get some pics up later. Been a long wait!

Curious, how is this 5-6 different from the one you sold?

Well I have had five of these over the years but this one has a heavy bevel on it

The blade does have considerable heft compared to the ones in the past. I'm really happy with the grind on it and I don't have any more knives on order so it's a keeper. Compare to my green handled one this one has a more substantial blade after I damaged a model 1/6 I think all of my subsequent orders have required a heavy bevel.

Can you specify a heavy bevel?

I broke My Smithsonian this afternoon... I was hunting a elephant bull and tried to stab him with the knife. The Elephant kicked and broke the knife in half, while it was in my hand. Luckily I Had a back up knife, with a heavy bevel to finish him of.

It was on my own land and the elephant was imported. I do that every now and then, saves me a trip to Africa and I don't have to take Malaria Pills. It,s indeed good to have your own land. Mine is also worth millions in euro's, that's even more than dollars. Gotta go, have to feed the Rhinos, LOL

I suppose so but they automatically add it for me

What? The shop automatically adds a heavy bevel when they receive an order from you?

I thought Bradford angiers book was appropriate as this configuration models his favorite one.

When I call they say heavy bevel man huh? I guess someone like Scott or Jason added that. I sure didn't specify it at least I don't remember doing so. In my shipping address box it says heavy bevel as well as notations under the order specs.

I put a misalignment in a 1-6 configuration. As in not true direct edge damage but a bow or bend in the actual bevel from a piece of hickory. Only other knife that happened on was a big Busse combat nmsfno. It was from the same tree but doing different work. After that is when the orders were heavy specified. Jason had seen one like it before but to my knowledge it's only happened to me those two times. It doesn't actually negatively effect the cutting edge.

Check that grind, it's super wide and still has a nice heavy thick blade I've not had one like it yet. Very nice shape like the catalog photo knife.
