It was roughly 4-5 months ago that I found myself looking for a custom fixed blade to be built. I had made a thread on the forums seen here looking for potential knife makers. I had gone through several potential knife makers before I came to Big Chris. I recalled seeing some of his knives on the forums and went out to contact him. Chris, was very patient, had communication, and was open to most designs. He worked with me throughout the entire process of designing the knife and I have a few pictures below to show.
Through the start of our transaction, he would update me with pictures once something had been done or completed. Though many were as a reply to my request. In regards to Chris's patience as a knife maker, let the picture speak for itself--as you can see, I had sent quite a few emails.
In regards to his flexibility as a knife maker, he has overdone himself. The knife that I requested to be done, was something unlike all the other knives he had completed. It was something different, a change, and a learning experience for Chris; however, he was open to what I had in mind and worked with me throughout the proces. In the pictures below you can see the drawings and template that led to the final product.
Now I'm pretty sure most of you are impatient and just skipped over to the pics
, but as a final statement, I would recommend Big Chris Custom Knives to anyone looking for an affordable, custom made, "supersteel", and well crafted knife.
