Note: The pictures contained throughout the
Custom Knife Pages of this site are going to be slow to load. There is no way
(that I have found) to give you a photo that will load quickly with enough
resolution to see all of the details (which I feel is extremely important when
you are looking for a top quality handmade knives). Please keep this in mind as
you browse my site.

- As with all of my knives, each folder is individually custom,
hand-made.
- I do not make semi-production knives cut out with lasers where all
of the parts
- are interchangeable and all I have to do is grind/finish the blade
and put the knife together. Each part is cut, shaped, fit and finished
by my hand.
- All
of my folding pocket knives are made with "micro-screw"
construction. This gives you a tough knife that operates smoothly
and consistently. It also allows parts to be easily replaced that
wear out under heavy use, giving you a knife that is truly
meant to be carried and used for a lifetime.
The Pair of double-bladed, lock-back pocket knives that are pictured here
(below, right) were both taken to
Canada on a bear hunt. Two bears were completely skinned by one blade of
each knife. Both of these blades would still shave afterwards. Enough
said.
