Best Kephart?

[Razor]

Since this is my favorite knife, I was wondering who makes a good one? I have a BR and Gossman that I really like. I would kinda like to start a collection, if I could afford them. Are their some other good makers of Kepharts? The kephart seems to be a do it all, knife for me.

check out ML knives. He makes hand-forged versions with a rustic/authentic look. They are some very nice blades.

 

[Diomedes Industries]

I have not owned one - but I hear GREAT things about Stompers - he is a class act too.

Also - check out the Blind Horse Knives Bushcraft - it is VERY similar is fit and feel to a BR Kephart.

Scott Gossman makes a nice one:

Here's my humble version of the famous Kephart knife:

This one goes to my father for Christmas

 

[Diomedes Industries]

Default - that looks exactly like the BR - which is a HELL of a blade. NICE WORK!

You guys might want to check out North River Forge in Canada.
Mr. Osborne makes some great knives, I got my patch knife
from him and they come with a custom sheath too!

Tell him PastorMarko sent you, he is a really nice man,
provides GREAT customer service and produces a quality
product and a VERY fair price.

Stomper makes a great Keppie. And I keep looking at the version Matt makes over at ML knives.

Very fair my butt - he only wanted 110 for this nice one!

With sheath! Makers need to learn to charge more so that can actually make a living.

Another vote for Stomper's Kephart.

I have his Hiker plus and it is becoming my favorite overall knife.

I'm another fan of JK's Kepharts. Here's the standard size and "Baby" versions.

How about one by Ray Laconico? Very clean grinds and attention to detail.

Another vote for ML knives. I have one on order. Matt is an outstanding guy to deal with.

Some peachy kephy's presented here.

I've always been very satisfied with John (JK's) version. It does exactly what I want of it it.

Ray Laconico makes very high quality Kepharts
