Back in April of 2000 I ordered my first knife made to my design. I was attempting to capture some of the features of an Ed Fowler Pronghorn, Here’s a quote from my origianl thread.
My First Custom, Take a L@@K!
“I have a couple of handmade knives, a GenO Denning, a R.O. Easler and a Michael L6 Cooper, but this is my first True Custom made to my drawings and to my specs. I don’t need to tell you I’m thrilled.
Here’s the details of the knife; made by J.A. Lonewolf of GA, the blade is 4” Random Pattern Damascus forged by Lonewolf, flat ground and filework on the spine, the handle is STAG with Turquoise spacers, and Buffalo horn butt cap, with a shaped brass guard (ala Ed Fowler). Fit and finish is perfect from what I can see.”

My Second Lonewolf
“A few months ago I had J.A. Lonewolf make my first custom knife made from my drawings, and it turned out beautiful, but there were some changes I wanted done, so I ordered my second knife from him.
The knives are similar, but not the same, there are distinct features I like about each one. Originally I had planned to keep the one I like best and sell the other, but at this point I can’t decide so I’ll keep both of them.”

Both knives come with handmade sheaths.
There is a mark on the lighter sheath, (highlighted with the blue circle in the insert). It’s not big and it’s not bad, but it is there.
I still can’t decide which one I like better, so I’ll let you decide.
Both knives are Mint.
One and only one is for sale, I’ll keep the other.
Asking $300>>>$275, Check or Money Order, sorry No Paypal and No Trades.
