"Sunday Sale"

Hi all,
Let's start off with the bad news.
I had planned on having two "Special Nebuli SE's" ready for today, but ran into a few snags.
Since my S30-V blades still aren't ready the "Special" thing about these two is that they have Titanium blades.
One is fairly basic in appearance, but also includes all Ti hardware, custom made pivot, lock bar stop pin, and thumb disk. The second is just pimped to the hilt.
The snag:
One is that the Teflon washers I want to use on the all Ti one are supposed to be .010 thick, but I received .020 from the supplier, also the 35 1/8*5/16 pivots came in as 7/16.....ugh!!
Next problem, the "Pimped" one is all set for glow dots in the spine, but the blue glow powder didn't  arrive...2nd. ugh!!
Please understand, no one is more bummed out about this than myself.
I really wanted to kick off the Nebuli SE's with some flair right out of the gate.
As soon as these issues are rectified the 2 will be offered up for sale (Yeah I'll give you all another heads up).

So, on to the good news.
I do have 3 of the "Proto Butcherettes" all set, and avaiable for purchase. I'm being selfish, and keeping one for myself:)
These are made from CPM S30-V, and heat treated to 58-60 Rockwell.
Measuring .140 thick, by 1.000 wide, and 3.00 long.
The chisel ground cutting edge is 1.250 long.
Stock tumbled finish, and they came back from heat treat with a neat Bronze tinge to them.
Sorry no sheaths for these.
I'm in the process of outfitting myself with the proper equipment for making Kydex sheaths in the future.
In an attempt to make up for the lack of said sheaths, I've added an Atwood Longlide to each Lanyard.
Two of the Longslides are Aluminum, and the other is Stainless.
Pricing: USA $100.00.
A USPS Money Order will work as well.
If you'd like to purchase one, please Email jordanmetalart@gmail.com
Thank you all for your continued support, and the rest of the Nebuli will be appearing after the New Year.

Merry Christmas,
Kenn

Wow guys,
You are all too kind, I mean less than 5 minutes for the sale, really?
After I finish the Nebuli SE run, I will be sure to do a real production run of the Butcherettes.
Merry Christmas all,

Guess nobody really wanted one for the sale to last all of "5" minutes!!!! :) Guess that kind of gave you an idea that people were interested huh Kenn?!?!? Have a Merry Christmas and an even better New year!!! Gary :>)

Wes said...

Wow amazing Kenny! I think we both saw this kind of interest coming way back in the beginning ;) your work is top notch my friend.

I'm sad I missed out but can't be more pumped for you on the quick sales!

Maybe next time :)

Kenn Jordan Jr. said...

Thanks for the comments Gary & Wes.
Well judging on the amount of "sorry you just missed the last one" Emails I sent out, I now have an idea on how many to to for the production run....lol

Kenn,
Let your friend Peter know that you should both be making more edged items! Thanks for the heads up on the sale and the win. Merry Christmas, looking forward to owning your Nebuli too.

Kenn Jordan Jr. said...

Mark,
While I can't speak for Peter, here's my reasoning for not making a fixed bladed item sooner.
Sheaths....they're lots a work.

melman8r said...

Kenn,
Peter had the same reason, do I need to start a sheath business?

Kenn Jordan Jr. said...

Mark,
Hey you could be onto something....:)

vegassprky said...

No problem Kenn, I'd be more than happy to make my own sheath!! Bring them on!!! Gary :>)

Kenn Jordan Jr. said...

Great then Gary,
I'll send another 74 along with yours for sheathing;)...lol

vegassprky said...

So your making 75!! It may take me awhile for that many, I'm not very fast! No hurry I guess hahaha! Gary :>)

Kenn Jordan Jr. said...

Gary,
I've got it under control my friend...;)

vegassprky said...

Kenn did you get the plate steel to make your kydex press yet? Plus you will need some heat resistant foam. Word of warning on the foam, don't let anything rest against it while storing it. Will cause it to deform and it won't reform itself, don't ask me why I know! Best of luck on this endeavor! Gary (<:

Kenn Jordan Jr. said...

Gary,
Well I've decided to outsource the Kydex Sheaths.
The fella I'm using is quite respected in the Sheath field, and we worked out pricing that's good for him, myself, and all you folks.
This way I'll have more time to machine up other goodies as well:)

vegassprky said...

Good for you Kenn! Now we want to see metal flying like crazy!!! After the holidays of course!!! Gary (<:

Kenn Jordan Jr. said...

I really was going to do the Sheaths myself, but figured they would come out looking like chewed Beef Jerky...lol
