[Jeff Mitchell]

I'm thinking about buying a custom folder, I've seen pics of Todd Davisons, Jeffrey Mitchells and J Loyds. They all look great. Any tips or recommendations would be greatly appreciated?

There are a few guys making slip joints now days. I've made knives going on 39 years, making slip joints full time for 15 of those years. I just finished my 1,866th slip joint knife.
You need to decide what you want? Will the maker make it? How much you want to spend? And how long you want to wait to get it?
