Here it is, my first custom knife and I think it's a real beauty. Fits my hand perfectly and the Osage handle sticks to my hand like glue during use. Sharp as a razor when it arrived and I already know that it has become my favorite.

5", O1, 1/8" blade
4.5" Osage handle

Hi all,

Longbow I am so glad you like your knife:D. Your picture taking skills are way better than mine LOL the two that I took and sent you just do not look near as cool as yours.

How does it compare to your mora:eek:? in feel and sharpness;)?
Thanks Bill for contacting me for your first custom knife. I am so glad that you like it and that is your favorite :p

Thanks again for the kind comments from you all,

Bryan
 
Hey Bryan, compare to a mora? Not even close, lol. You did good and the mora takes a back seat. Your photo's show the size of the knife in the hand. It does fill the hand up and is very comfortable to use. Thanks again for such a great knife.

Man, I love that handle!

I think I made a good choice too.

About the handle, I traced it from a cheap chinese oversized steak knife that I handled in a local eatery. I gave Bryan the dimensions and we worked with finger placement and that's how it ended up. I like it a lot too.
 
The only problem is, once you start ordering from Bryan, he sort of gets under your skin and pretty soon you are ordering from him again.......:D

I love his osage. You will find that it changes to a darker color over time. Here's another peacemaker at a crazy angle.

I love what you did with the finger notch on your handle!
 
Thats a great knife. Brian is a great maker.

You do know, now that you bought your first custom, its all downhill from here!!!
 
Bryan makes a nice knife, that custom looks fantastic longbow, have a feeling it will look even better once it develops a patina:)
 
Hi all,

Longbow, Mora on the back burner, your Breeden made knife out in front:D
I like the sound of that. LOL Hey Bill remember when I told you in one of our chats that it might be a good idea to have a name for your knife. Well I have got orders for the same as Longbows. That is not a peace maker the peacemaker has two different handle shapes your knife has a upswept blade like the peacemaker but has a totaly differenet handle shape. So what do you think? LOL

Hey Jeff, can you send me that design of the McDonalds knife :D LOL
I can see a future for that design. :p

Thanks ALL for the kind comments on Longbows knife that I made for him.

Bill where ever it was that you went to eat, and they have cool looking knives like that. I might just have to go there and check it out. ;)

Take care all,

Bryan

PS yea post up some pics when you get some patina on it.
 
Kgd I like the crazy angle of the pic you posted. LOL
That looks AWESOME. Rotte said that Awesomw means a
fearsome knife that can do it all LOL That is one if I ever saw one.LOL

Thanks and take care,
Bryan
