Another great looking knife. That carry rig is out-freakin'standing!
Frank, I love seeing your work.:D


All the best,
Mike U.
 
What a great contast between the buffalo horn and the ivory. The finish on your knives is as good as I have seen. Beautiful knife.
 
Boy you've sure put some impressive looking stuff up here lately! I love the handle on that knife.., and although I'm not nuts about filework on big knives.., that is a subtle classy touch on this one...

Very nice!!

Mr Bradley,
I saw the filework on the spine and knew I was looking at one of yours... And then I saw the sheath and really knew it!!

I just got one of yours from Rehoboth Custom Knives and think it is a truly complete package: the blade is the style I really love, the handle has enough drop to the rear to make it very usable, not to mention the visual impact... and the sheath just tops the whole thing off!

I'd never heard of you until I saw it on Rehoboth's webpage, but now that I see you post here as well, I'll definitely keep my eyes open!

And a question, too:
Since you live in Ca, are you going to be at the OKCA show in Eugene? Or the BACKA show?
If you come up to Eugene, I'd love to meet the guy who I just added to my collection!

And if not, I'll still look forward to seeing more of your work here on BFC!!!
 
thanks for the compliments Joe, glad you got a nice knife.....I don't do any shows, I'm strictly a hobbyist at this knifemaking thing, I do it for the enjoyment & to fight the boredom of injury induced disability.....you could save yourself a lot of money by ordering directly from me next time, www.bradleyknives.com
 
Nice web site Frank. I had no idea your knives were so reasonably priced. Somehow I thought they would be a lot more.
 
hey, I've got your site bookmarked! And I will definitely be in touch as my budget allows... Dang, I just saw anoth Fitch I have to have, the OKCA show in Eugene is almost here... when's the BACKA show? Man, too many good makers, to little money and nowhere near the time to see all of 'em!! LOL!!!
But yours is such a beaut that I may have to have something like it with your gunslinger style sheath... the sheath in particular sets the whole package apart from the basic knife/sheath thingy... not to mention the finish on the handle - that style happens to be very close to what I feel is the ideal knifehandle for general purposes...

Keep up the good work!!
