Charles May knives

motpeek · Aug 17, 2006

I recently took possesion of a big hand by Charles May and have to say that
this is one of the nicest knives i have in my collection.Fit and finish is second to none.The quailty of his workmanship is outstanding and at a fraction of the cost of some of my other custom blades.It also was a pleasure talking with charles about the options and what I wanted from the knife.A work horse that is a piece of art.

Thanks

Charlie makes a great knife!

Have you got any pictures of yours?

I'm getting anxious to handle the two I have on order. Vance and I travel from Tupelo to Meridian at least once a month and we always make sure we spot the "Strong" Mississippi sign and we drive down Hwy 45.

Charles has a careful eye and pays strong attention to detail.

I sure hope I get an email from Charles soon. Just like MTF3 I'm anxious for my new knife.

The Holt Collier is the sharpest knife I have.

Charlie May is a super guy to deal with, and his knives are top notch.

Charles May's knife is fantastic!!! I have the Big Hand Scandi with Desert Ironwood scales and it's the best fixed-blade knife I own. The sheath is superb as well. I have another order with him for a Skifa Scandi and I won't be getting it until July/Sept. His waiting list is getting longer and longer.
