Proto Sumo
This was the prototype study piece for my upcoming Sumo model. I may make these a limited run, not sure yet. The knife is physically HUGE although not very long, measuring around 5 inches OAL but thick S30v stock that is very broad and fills the hand nicely. Reminds me a lot of a pumpkinseed or bluegill in the hand, broad and a little flat but with a distinct palm swelling feel to it. This is a sweet tool knife. Fun stuff! :) I have an even larger...

Hey Atwoodites, I need a big favor...
My wife has recently entered her latest novel "The Dark Lord's Heir" in a writing contest sponsored by Borders and Simon and Schuster on gather.com. It's kind of like American Idol for writers and the winner will have their book published by Simon and Schuster. What I'm wondering is would some of you be so kind as to go over there and give her a vote? It takes all of 5 minutes and would mean an awful lot to her. And of course I would be forever in your debt. :)The link to the Novel chapter is HERETo vote, scroll down to the bottom and select a...

Microscopic Damascus
A good customer of mine is a professor at the University of Arizona. He snapped a few shots of one of my Damasteel whistles at approximately 8X magnification and sent me the results. So cool! Thanks John, very much appreciated!...

International Orders...
I hate to do it but I'm just getting hammered with lost orders overseas. So my new policy this year is anything over $35 is going to be going Global Express mail for a cost of approximately $25-30. At least it has tracking. It sucks for me because it's a major pain in the ass with the paperwork and it sucks for you guys who are overseas because it's pretty expensive. But the reality is I can't go on losing larger orders and then having to replace them particularly when they are for one of a kind items.It is frustrating but this is how it has to...

Happy New Year!
Hope everyone has a terrific 2007! I know I'll be doing my best to have fun this year and try to keep up with everyone's requests. :)The beginning of a new year is an interesting time. It's an opportunity for me to look at what I did last year and think about the direction that I wish to go in for the next.I'm thinking that this year will see several new items, a few of which may be entirely different from anything you've seen before from the Atwood shop. I'm itching to do more patterning and embellishment on selected pieces. I'd like to see a...
