  Every once in a while I come across some limited quantity items that I think might be of interest to my customers either because they are unique or because I managed to get a pretty decent price. I'm also going to use this page to introduce new items, so check back often.

Knifemaking 101, 2 DVD Set 
Knifemaking 101 DVD Back In Stock: Terrific  Gift Idea
Knifemaking 101
is an introduction to the thoroughly enjoyable hobby of customizing your own high quality, hardworking knife from commonly available knife blanks. Almost anyone with minimum woodworking  or shop skills can produce a knife that they would be proud to use and display ( or give as a gift ) , a knife that could easily become an heirloom.

Knifemaking 101 takes you through, step by step,  in meticulous detail, all of the processes involved  in the personal production of your own functional  masterpiece. Designed for those that are new to this hobby, this two DVD set is also has a wealth of  hints ‘n’ tips that may give even the pro’s a new idea or two. Creativity, safety and common sense are  emphasized throughout . 

Part 1: The full tang knife design ( 1 Hour), looks  at the most common fixed blade designs and discusses the most usual methods of fabrication and customization. 

Part 2: The partial tang knife design ( 1 Hour) demonstrates the creativity available that this type of design offers and shows several techniques that can be applied to any of your future efforts. 

Presented in an entertaining, sometimes tongue-in-cheek format that emphasizes the fun and creativity of this hobby by knifemaker Pat Percival, a hobbyist who has been making knives for 20 years. ( Uh, yeah... the same Pat Percival who owns NorthCoast Knives. )

Knife Kits
I
've had a number of people ask me about putting in some knife kits so I decided top give it a try.  All three kits provide an affordable and easy  way to try out this hobby while ending up with a decent blade for your efforts.  The Colonial Skinner may look old-fashioned, but it's a tried and true design that has been field proven for a very long time. Why mess with success?  The Talon is a modern, high tech looking hiking and camp knife.  The Jerboa is an every day carry that blends form with hard working function.

The Colonial and Talon come with pins, Dymondwood handle ( Sorry, no choice in color), and a ballistic nylon sheath. The Jerboa comes with pins, a walnut block for a handle and directions. Sorry, but it doesn't include a sheath, available seperately.
