In addition to my Busses, I like my Horton's too, also Burchtree's and Snody's :thumbup: There are many others I would love to try

Jeremy Horton's knives are Phat !

50cal...

And Balanced..............

Besides Busse, I like Bark River, Rat Cutlery, and Dan Koster. Americans are currently making the best knives ever made, IMHO.

In addition to some of the others mentioned, I would like to add Al Polkowski.

Oh man that was close, I almost posted "Busse" without reading the OP.

I have a Becker 9, it works great. The blade profile actually cuts very well compared to many other bushcraft oriented knives I own. It's pretty much the reason I won't be getting a BWM, that and I need to save money for a CG SAR 8 (fingers crossed).
Otherwise I've been looking at some Bark River knives and that sweet Fehrman Final Judgement.

I gotta jump-in for Horton and NWA knives. Some of the best designed and ground blades currently being made in a one-man shop. Great price-v-performance too.

They are starting to get their deserved recognition, but I'm sure both will increase in fame.

Actually, plenty of others as well, but these two are true gents!

I hate to break it to you but Sean O'hare is one of us Canadians.

I agree with the other choices as I have one Charles May knife with another on order and 2 Randall's on order.

I have "American" Coldsteel, Scapper6 LE, But my Horton Campblood "Sabergrind" is the shizz!! That thing is incredible! J is great to deal with, you talk to the man that makes your knife. Can't lose with a Horton.
