Thank you Doc, that's very generous of you.

Any hints as to concepts for the future?

We are going to do a folder next. We have a couple of unique tools planned too. We are just trying to get our feet planted right now and build some capital again,

speaking of that, I figured out how give group pricing discounts on our website. If you register on our website and send me a PM with your name you registered under, I will turn on the discount to come up automatically in your cart.

Thanks for all the support and kind words to date,

Mark

How we make them - For those who want to know

Thanks for the comments - Mildot and I have been asked how we make our knives, so we used our PPT RGR skills to put this together. Thanks again for all the support and kind words of encouragement to all on PS and our fellow QP's.

I called Curtis today to inquire if they had or planned on having a table at any of the functions at Fort Benning (Infantry Leaders Conference, International Sniper Competition, Best Ranger, Ranger Rendezvous, etc.) or showing up in the Atlanta area gun show.

The conversation lasted far longer than I had planned but I truly enjoyed the time. Curtis was very gracious to entertain me and answer all my questions. I registered online, got my discount and now look forward to my first purchase from them.

Curtis, thank you for taking your precious time to speak with me.

Thank you Master Bill for introducing these two young Jedi’s to the mob.

I like the design, and seeing the process really shows the level or care that goes into each blade, great work!

Prototype sheaths for Spartan Blades

Hey Guys,

We are looking to provide a quality leather sheath for our knives as well as nylon and kydex. I'm posting some pictures here in an attempt to get some feed back on the overall design and look on the leather option. The leather will be environmently protected to resist mildew , warpage, and the other problems usually associated with leather.

We welcome your thoughts!!

Nice looking leather! Couple questions--is the short loop on the forward edge for holding a crock stick/diamond rod, and are the three levels of holes on the belt hanger for attaching a secondary securing strap at varying heights to make the sheath jumpable?

Razor, The loop on the front can hold a small LED light, a fire stick, or a hone.
Yes the three rows of holes are meant for securing for securing to varying belt widths, for securing for jump ops or for lashing to a pack / alice / molle with 550 cord.

We plan to have it available both a black and brown option.
