Gone...

Man, those links don't last long....

I like these threads

They begin with "Atwoods up for sale" followed quickly by "Gone"; everytime. Peter Atwood must be some kind of marketing genius or something 

[Mr. Whippy]

My hope is that someone who doesn't follow Peter's blogsite can maybe jump over there and catch an item for Atwood price instead of aftermarket price.

That G5 Prybaby looks awesome!     I really love the grinds on it.    Peter's work just keeps getting better and better.

Yes it does...     He makes notes of people that sell his stuff on eBay and if he catches them they are banned from buying direct from him.  It has gotten much better the past couple of years. I can still find Atwoods at direct prices without any problem.

I was lucky enough to get one.

Atwoods are made by hand with great fit and finish. Many are made with exotic materials with interesting finishes and stamps. Depending on the exact model, they can also be very practical. However, like many things produced in small numbers, many people collect them.

Agreed; the fact his stuff is handmade in limited numbers makes them even more popular. Not a bad business plan 

I've never had an Atwood but do have a JDR Hammerhead. If the Atwoods are anywhere near as good Joshua's work then he must be onto something
