My good friend Cory aka Hunters Fabrication is doing a run of these steak weights/burger presses and these things are D-O-P-E!
I've done a few skate ones with him (pictured), Cory's currently finishing a number of solid brass handle versions and some are ready to go right now!
Brass handle version weighs 980grams, (9-8-0 ๐คฏ), skate handle version weighs 860grams (still fu***ng heavy ๐)
Both are handmade from 5mm coreten steel, so will patina beautifully with use/age.
130x130mm, fits real nice in the paw with a well thought out ergonomic handle design.
Brass version are $85 plus P&P, skate version are $65 plus P&P ๐ธ๐ฎ
He has some ready to go, so if you're looking for a Christmas present for a BBQ nut in your life (or if you're the nut), hit him up!
He's got some other โโโy โโโโโโแตฃโ โ๏ธ coming in 2026 that I guarantee people will fu***ng love too!
So go to his page (not here), jump into his DM's and get yourself a one-of-a-kind artisan handmade beautiful steak weight/burger press.

SOLD!!! ๐
Sometimes I honestly do wonder if any of my calls have ever been used for any training or quality purposes ๐ค
Anyways, here's a wee mean green setaroni I have available ๐๐ - CW Santoku, your 'anchor' in the kitchen โ, the daily workhorse, and the CW Paring, a small light (but deadly) utility knife that comes in handy for any of the smaller quicker jobbies - your 'light in a storm' ๐ผ
Individual pricing:
Santoku: $395
Paring: $285
Nab yourself a bargain & get the set (only two knives you'll need in your culinary arsenal) for: $650 including shipping in NZ ๐ณ๐ณ๐ฟ
Some specs:
Santoku: Blade length 190mm, Handle 125mm - overall 315mm. Ergonomic rear grip, weighted from pinch grip & weighs 165 grams.
Paring: Blade length 115mm, Handle 100mm - overall 215mm. Classic coffin handle with slightly chamfered and smoothed sides & weighs 70 grams.
Fun story, I have very limited feeling in my left index finger from one of these paring knives - I was finishing one a few years back & it came out of the protective sleeve I use to hold the blade while doing the final hand sand.
I was listening to music & was also deep in thought about whatever random s**t was on my mind on that fateful day, so when the blade slid out my mind immediately went: "just push it back in Wayne" ... which I tried to do, but I missed the sleeve & DROVE it straight through the side of my finger - it hit the bone (after cutting through all the nerves/tendons/muscle ... (whatever the f***s in there) and came out the other side.
So, when I say these are small/light, but DEADLY - I really do mean it ๐ฌ๐๐๐
Fucm it, I might as well finish the story now I've started ... when it happened, I knew I'd FU**ED UP ๐ตโ๐ซ
So I wrapped my finger in my shirt - I didn't want to see the damage, the blood on the floor was enough lol.
Then I called my light in a storm - Chezza. She convinced me to look at it, so I unwrapped it - saw all the guts hanging out and I had so much s**t to do that week I decided on the spot - "f**k it, I'm not going to the hospital" ... so I pushed the 'stuff' back into the hole with a glue stick, poured hot stuff (an instant glue I get from the States) (I have another gross story about that glue too) into both sides of the hole and duct taped it up.
Then went and laid down for a while because I was on the verge of fainting ๐ฅด
And I'm not telling you c***s this trying to sound tough, it was singlehandedly the stupidest decision I've ever made - it took well over 6-months for the wound to heal over with constant daily pain and I now have lost pretty much all feeling in it and it HURTS LIKE A MOTHER FU**ER when my hand gets cold ๐ฅถ๐ตโ๐ซ๐ฅด
So folks, learn from this Paddy - if you cut yourself badly with one of my knives (or any other) - go to the hospital and let them sort ya out, not super glue and duct tape ๐๐๐
Anyways, that's enough story telling for today - if you'd like this set (which did not enter my body) ... you know how it goes - D-M M-E (heeeeeeeeeee) ๐ฌ

What do you get when you cross a bear and a mountain lion?
Killed.
You get killed ๐
Will have 2 x Stumpy (both graphic) and 2 x Paring (one solid HOT pink, one durty graphic) available next week - sneaky lil progress pic below ๐ผ
The long blade shown is my Chezza's boning knife that she asked me for approx. 3.5years ago, it's actually a full carbon fish fillet, but I find they work SOOOOOOOO much better as a boning knife for big BBQ meats (briskets, etc.) - will have a few more of these coming soon too ๐ช๐ฅฉ
Both graphic Stumpy's will come with a magnetic standing block, one block is going to feature a GNARLY broken board design I've been fu***ng around with for a while ๐
Stumpy (1) & standing magnetic block (1) - $485/set, Paring are both $285 - all four knives have either brass or copper liners/fixings to give them an extra bit of weight/grunt ๐ช
Full specs, finished picture's, etc. coming at you lovely lot next week - but if anyone's keen on getting in there early & securing one or two - D-M M-E ๐ฌ

I don't do makers weekends anymore, but I'm going to do one last one this year ... and this is it!
It will be a ONE-ON-ONE makers session over two days (most likely a Satdee/Sundee) with yours truly?
Winner can choose what they want to make (kitchen knife, hunting knife, restore an old cleaver, magnetic holder, display block, axe, etc. etc.)
What's included; I provide ERYTHING you need to make something rad that you take home on the Sundee, we provide food both days (EPIC BBQ, birria tacos, or smash burgers, or whatever else my much better half creates ... probably the highlight of these weekends tbh), all the beersies you can possibly consume in 48hours, and as much of my s**t yarns as you can handle.
Depending on how drunk we get, maybe some hugs thrown in too!
We'll do the full skate making process from start to finish, where I'll explain every step in the actual processing of the old boards, and I'll make the same thing along with you for s**ts & giggles!
We can do a weekend that suits the winner at any stage this year (weather permitting).
50 spots, $20/spot - comment "IN" with the number of spots you want below (so, "IN X 2" for example if you want two spots - please comment below and don't DM for spots).
I'll only run the waffle if all 60 spots sell, so DON'T go transferring any ๐ฐ until I flick you a message with your waffle number/payment deets.
The winner will need to make their own way to ChCh and sort their own accommodation and then we can make cool s**t, eat GREAT food, drink cold beers and possibly solve some of the world's problems!
So get commenting lovely people - oh, and some new CW knives for purchase coming at y'all soon ๐
Keep an eye on the page, but like Jesus at Easter, I'm also about to re-emerge from a cave after being dead (metaphorically speaking) for a wee while now โ๏ธ

Hi everyone, Cheryl here again ... more that are finished/available ๐
This time, we have an old Foster Bros (Brothers) matching set of Cleaver & Butchers Steel.
Cleaver has a 6.25" long blade, is just over a foot total length, solid brass pins with custom CW centre pins and weighs approx. 725 grams (hefty little beast in the hand).
The FB Steel has a 14" long honing steel, and is just over 20" overall including handle and weighs approx. 550 grams, finished with custom CW pins on all four faces ๐
These two have come to New Zealand all the way from Alamogordo, New Mexico ๐บ๐ฒ and are approx. 80 years young.
These two were working tools in the first version of a local Abattoir 'A & M Meat Processing LLC' that's still operating today. These came from an estate sale of one of the original owners, so a real piece of Americana for you โค๏ธ
They have both been refinished in the OG CW skate stripes ๐ฅ and are surface finished with approx. 15 layers of a super secret marine grade polyurethane and thinners mix to get that glassy finish ๐๐ & make water resistantโ๏ธ๐ฆ (not to be confused with water proof for the dishwasher lovers ๐คฆ)
This set is: $1,095 plus P&P - usual story, first DM gets it!
This is the only Cleaver & matching Butchers Steel set that will ever be done BTW ... so a genuine 'one of a kind' in a world of mass production ๐
Anyways, recycling (look at them ... just look at them) (I SAID FU***NG LOOK AT THEM!!!) is เฎเฏเฎเฏเฎธเฏ เฎเฎพเฎชเฏเฎชเฎฟเฎฏเฎเฏเฎเฎณเฎฟเฎฒเฏ เฎคเฏเฎฃเฎฟ โป๏ธ DM for more details ๐

Hi everyone, Cheryl here!
In case anyone was wondering, Wayne has quit Facebook!
BUT he is still making (sporadically) & this one is finished/available ๐
It's an old International Tool Edge Co. - 7" long blade, just over a foot total length and weighs 666 grams.
Feels real solid/nice in the hand & has been reground/rebevelled and is sharp AF, so chicken necks beware!
It's come to NZ via a small place called Ste. Genevieve in Missouri ๐บ๐ฒ and is approx. 60 years young.
It's been refinished in an old vintage car pinstripe pattern ๐ฅ
This one's $580 plus P&P - first DM gets it.
No idea when the next one will be available ๐คท
Anyways, recycling (look at the beautiful old bitch ... just look at her) (I SAID FU***NG LOOK AT HER!!!) is เฎเฏเฎเฏเฎธเฏ เฎเฎพเฎชเฏเฎชเฎฟเฎฏเฎเฏเฎเฎณเฎฟเฎฒเฏ เฎคเฏเฎฃเฎฟ โป๏ธ DM for more details ๐
