Be prepared for a long wait if he does take the order. I think he stopped taking custom orders if the info I got is correct. Some of the older Blade magazines had his contact info in them but I have not seen it again for sometime now.
I heard he is related somehow to Gil Hibben. Or at least he used to be. Seems like I read that in Blade come to think of it. Seems like he married a daughter of Gil's or something..
Blade gallery is the only place I've seen anything of Russ' in the last few years.
Well, I stand corrected. It was Knives Illustrated. He isn't related to Gil but did meet his daughter first before being introduced to Wes and then Gil.
Serves me right for going by memory. I have the contact info they listed in the article from the 1999 Knives Illustrated where he was featured. It may or may not be accurate today.
I sent it to your email posted in your profile to pass it on to you. If he is that hard to find on the net he must not want it published so I'll hold back on putting out there on the forum just in case.
