I agree that would look pretty nice. I think these are the only ones coming in Damascus, at least for now.

Thanks Q!

it would certainly change the price point beyond something id be willing to pay

The newest batch of Lexingtonian coffin jacks has 6 different colors of giraffe bone. Very low quantities, only 7-13 made in each color.

Also new, the farmers jack in barehead ebony, but with a unique cigar band in nickel silver. Only 10 made. I like this feature paying respect to the historic knives of the late 1800's that featured cigar bands.

Nice variety of Giraffe Bone, Carl... Love it!

Agree Wouldn't it be cool to have one of each

Thanks guys. Yeah it would be quite the set to have all the colors. I should have grabbed 1 of each for a group photo, that was dumb of me to not do that when I had the chance.

The top one is amazing!

Carl those coffin jacks are all exceptional. I like those farmer jacks too. The cigar band is a nice touch.

Thanks Dave. They all came out really nice. I went to the Lehigh Valley knife show last weekend with Ryan and he sold all but 2 of the ones he had with him. They really are eyecatching.

I agree Mark. Ryan has been trying to do things based on historic patterns and materials, and doing things that current makers aren't doing. The cigar band is quite nice. I'd like to see it with abalone or mother of pearl too.

A few more varieties of the farmer jack with the cigar bands. 11 made in purple maple burl, and 10 made in black pearl.

This one was just announced, the coffin jack Lexingtonian in rams horn handles.

Newest release in 5 different handle materials is from Napanoch Knife Co. A blend of the coffin jack pattern, and a doctor's knife, this is called the Mortician. I was very happy how the photos turned out, and the handles are really eye-popping. I also had a hand in the spatula design, and cut them myself on a laser CNC at a friend's machine shop, so I was excited to see the final result.

Those are wonderful Carl. A great idea. Eye-popping is a good description. Not a bad looking handle in the bunch.

Nice looking pattern, Carl! The Bones look great, and those Stags are Gorgeous! I'm sure it's very satisfying to be involved in the design & build of such a cool & unique knife. Hope to see you and some of these beautiful knives at one of the upcoming shows.

Thanks Kevin. I hope to get out to a few shows this year.

The latest batch of Lexingtonian coffin jacks in dyed colors of box elder and curly birch handles. Pretty stuff in my opinion.

The new pattern will be coming very soon, under the Tuna Valley brand. The blades are back from heat treat and being ground now. January should see them start to roll out.

That won't stop us from trying, though.......because sometimes dreams actually do come true. Can't believe I managed to score a Mortician, in gorgeous Amber Stag no less (1 of 12) I have to keep pinching myself to make sure I'm not still dreaming
