Custom Buck 110 Handle Maker

[pheltor]

I am trying to find a skilled craftsman to replace the ebony handles on my 110 with something a bit more unique (antler, bone, mammoth, etc).

I know of Kyle Noseworthy, but he’s up in Canada, and for shipping specifics, having someone domestic would be better.

Any recommendations?

There's a bunch of options.

My first thought is Leroy Remer @ Triple R knives. He worked in the old Custom Shop for Buck.

For the money, I'd just buy a new knife from Buck's Custom Shop. They're even on sale right now.

There's dealers selling mammoth tooth knives too.

This is great, big thanks GPyro

I agree with Leroy. Top notch.

Heath Stone of Stone Knifeworks seems to do great work and is well regarded, though I sadly don't have personal experience with his work.

I'd like to point out that despite these guys being excellent craftsmen; neither are forum supporters and you should look to the folks who support the forum in the knifemakers sub-forum.

Kyson who runs KBM Knife Works does awesome stuff at pretty reasonable prices, and he works extensively customizing Buck knives. He's on Facebook if you want to check out all his stuff in photos.

For what it's worth, the nicest little custom I own came from him, pictured below.
