Hey hey hey Krik here! Hope everyone is doing well, it’s been a while.
Well we receive lots of questions about what happened to us or if we’ll upload more videos. I thought I could shine some light on what’s going on with my brother and I.
Black Owl is not dead. Rather we’re in a hibernation of sorts.
I’m making and selling my goods over at @owlcreekhandmade and Stony is doing LOTS of things through @thingsdoneframed.
We talk about filming again. But so much of my time is spent trying to pay the bills I don’t really have the energy for too many leisure projects, which stinks.
I truly hope space opens up again and we can start filming with some sort of consistency. But until then here’s a fall scene from the woods of Pennsylvania.
Thanks to everyone who sent messages asking about us. We are well.
Krik

What’s up turtles? Krik here. My brother and I are thinking about selling some of the outdoor gear we’ve used/accumulated over the years. Any interest? Comment below if so! 📸 - @thingsdoneframed

Here’s a detail photo of a sheath I made for a knife that belonged to our great grandfather. He’s no longer with us, but I like to image he would have approved. -Krik

A fresh coating of snow meant an impromptu hike. Doesn’t get much better than that.

By my side. Last week I finished this wet formed belt sheath for my #edc flashlight. I chose to the leave the vegetable tanned #leather natural, undyed. You can already see marks on the sheath from daily use, which is what I want. The sheath will look very different in one year from now. Cool. -Krik

If you’re familiar with our YouTube videos, you’ve probably seen our Mountain Camp. Pictured here is Stony and I with our grandma at that same Mountain Camp when we were little. May you rest in peace now grandma. -Krik

- One advantage of wearing an untreated leather belt is that you always have a strop with you to keep your edges sharp. Any of you turtles use your belt to keep your blades honed?

- No matter how many times I see an Eastern Red-spotted newt , I feel like I need to photograph it. One of these days I'll have a macro lens with me to capture it justly. - stony

- There is something so freeing and reinvigorating about a campfire in the forest. It calls back to a simpler time and a simpler life. Truth be told, the ability to have a campfire is one of the few advantages of living on the east coast versus the west. Nothing like getting lost in the warm dancing flames. - stony

- Not that anyone needed clarification, but yesterday's knife was the @morakniv Companion HD. And in case you didn't see our last post, this is hands down the knife I recommend for just about anyone getting into the outdoors. It works well for hiking, hunting, camping, backpacking, bushcrafting and just about any outdoor pursuit where you could need a knife! - stony

- If you're just getting into the outdoors and ask me what knife I'd recommend, hands down it's this one. This one is an even easier #knifeID than the last one. - stony

- Any fans of the @topsknives Wilderness Guide? It has one of the more unusual shapes of the knives we have.

- The answer to yesterday's knife ID, as it seems you all knew already, is the BK16 by @kabarknives & designed by the legendary @beckerknifeandtool. Apparently we need to go for some more obscure knives to test you... Stay tuned. - stony
