Geez Ray cant you get that blade a little longer?

Nice knife Bud

Ok, I'll ask.

How much do you want for it?

Awsome work Ray, love the lines. Looks like that'd tickle someone's gizard.

Next one I have in mind will be a little larger than this one. Same style but in a bowie package. Are you doing anymore pistol/ax/knives? I'm looking forward to spring.

I appreciate everyones comments on this fighter! I really enjoyed making this knife.

I love the simple, uncluttered look of your knives. This one is exeptionally
nice.

Where do you find all this wrought iron?!

Dana, Most of what I have been getting lately finds me. I just go get it. Its out there. Old farms are a good source. I got my last batch of wrought iron out of an old barn foundation.

Ray,

Have you used all that anchor chain you got from IG, what was that about 500 lbs?

Ray gave me a link of that chain. It weighs about 30 pounds!

I should have one ready for the Oregon show in April. It has a feather pattern damascus blade and stag grips. Its coming along "slow but sure"

I ended up getting about 200 pounds of the anchor chain from IG. I was able to bring 50 pounds on the plane. The rest I had to ship home. I've still got several links left. They wouldn't let me take any as carry on.

Bruce, Have you ever been able to make one fast?

When I said faster I was talking more about your pistol knives. I've heard that this coming Reno Show will be the last one there and that its moving to Ark. Will you still be doing the show after the move?

Yes this is the last of the Reno Shows. It is moving to San Antonio Texas for 2009. I still want to participate even though it costs more to travel. The Alamo is only 3 blocks away from the hotel. Gotta check that out!
