We think you’ll flip over Woody’s newest Ophidians! We’re not for certain, but we think Woody’s serpent loving father, yeah that one, the one who started the King Snake Farm in the house and caused his wife Hortense too evacuate and move in with her sister down the road, well we think he once had a Black Snake named Jack. If he didn’t, well he should have, because it sure makes a good name for these sleek looking little fillet knives! Woody is making these in small batches of thirty-five or so. One batch in a snaky looking Black Micarta and the other batch in handsome Serpentine finished Curly Maple. This first batch of seventy knives, 35 of each finish, features snappy looking liners in a contrasting Racer Green. Three additional consecutive batches are planned to each feature different color liners. With a blade of 1/16 gauge Swedish AEB-L surgical stainless steel and an overall length of 9.5 inches, we think you’ll find your self doing a few flip flip fillets over how versatile it is in the kitchen.

TRUE STORY: The Original Woody was a bona fide, farm-educated, self-proclaimed herpetologist. That's a fancy name for someone who is really smart when it comes to knowing about snakes. And all things snake-like. Old Woody was a snaky kind of guy. And quite industrious too. As a matter of fact, the Original Woody once had the bright idea of raising a bounteous and self-propagating supply of his favorite snake, the King Snake, and selling them as a Cash Crop. He called the enterprise Old Woody's Rodent Control Apparatus Supply Co. It never really had time to catch on with the neighboring farmers; mainly due to 40 fine specimens getting loose in the house, forcing Woody's wife Horace to vacate the premises and move in with her sister a little ways down the road. To our recollection only 32 were re-captured and promptly set free down by the river. We aren't quite sure when Horace returned home. We just know she eventually did. The OPHIDIAN Series is in honor of Old Woody.
(And Horace)
