Members geargarcon Posted May 13, 2017 Members Report Posted May 13, 2017 The medium Barry King haft has some use to it. The Bob Douglas awl blade has only been used a dozen times or so. I mean for exactly one dozen stitches. That is it. I'm switching to KSBlades and trying to get some money together for my purchase. Won't need such a nice awl if I'm relying on the irons to do the work. This combination brand new costs about $90 including shipping. I'm asking $75 delivered to your door.

alpha2 Posted May 19, 2017 Report Posted May 19, 2017 where are you located? I'm looking into getting some of Bob's blades and am not happy with any of the hafts I have so far.
Members geargarcon Posted May 20, 2017 Author Members Report Posted May 20, 2017 (edited) Texas. I love the blade. It is silky smooth. The haft is much thicker than other styles. It takes some getting used to, but I think it fits very naturally in the hand. A better explanation of what I mean is this: If you hold your hand out straight in front of you and let it go limp, look at the empty space between your fingers and your palm. You'll notice the empty space closely resembles the shape of this haft. Edited May 20, 2017 by geargarcon
