Members SouthernCross Posted April 24, 2018 Members Report Posted April 24, 2018 I'm considering getting either a French cut head knife or one of his pull-cut knives. I will be mainly using it to cut out patterns (or pieces from patterns, I guess I should say). Which would be best for that job? Quote
bikermutt07 Posted April 24, 2018 Report Posted April 24, 2018 You will never reget it. I love my French model. These knives are super sharp. I practice some serious safety with these knives. I haven't had to do anything to them except strop them with every few hours of use. They are great. And, I think his prices are way lower than they should be. After owning the French model, I would pay at least 50 dollars more with out a second thought. You usually have to wait a few months to receive your order, but Terry's knives are well worth the wait. He is a one man show and very busy. Here's a little Knip porn for ya. This last one has a crown marking knife, Knipschield bevel cut, a custom haft from a forum member, the French model, the curved detail knife, and finally another haft from the same forum member. These are the sheaths Terry ships them in. Quote I'm not paying 80 bucks for a belt!!! It's a strip of leather. How hard could it be? 4 years and 3 grand later.... I have a belt I can finally live with. Stitching is like gravy, it's only great if you make it every day. From Texas but in Bossier City, Louisiana.
Members SouthernCross Posted April 24, 2018 Author Members Report Posted April 24, 2018 Mutt, which knife do you use most often for cutting out pieces? Quote
Moderator immiketoo Posted April 24, 2018 Moderator Report Posted April 24, 2018 I use my Knip french for 99 percent of my cutting. I would sell all my other knives before I got rid of my french model. In fact, I'd fight you for it if it came to that. I have a few mor ethan Mutt has too, so that's saying something Quote Learnleather.com
