Here are two knives I received from Bob Dozier and Trace Rinaldi just in time for the holidays. (Can't think of a better way to ring in the New Knife Year ;))

The Dozier is a convex ground "Professional Guide's Knife" in D2 with ironwood scales (and Bob's "wilderness" sheath). Needless to say, it's razor sharp. This knife begs to be taken to the woods and that's just where it will be employed.

The second knife is the very practical "Gambit" by Trace Rinaldi in S30V with micarta scales. This flat ground knife is comfortable for neck or belt carry and makes a great EDC. In fact, that's just what it's been for me since I got it.

Two great knives by two excellent makers. Everything you need and nothing you don't.

Now THERE'S something you don't see everyday! A convex ground Dozier? I do bet that rascal is sharp and will cut at a glance!

Trace has a nice utility style going there that would be quite handy about anywheres too!

Thanks for sharing!

ps
that wood looks like it has nice character too! :)
 
Blues:

Both are lookers but I'm partial to natural handle materials and the Dozier Ironwood scales are gorgeous!

I'm also drooling over the K-1 handled in Ironwood in another post. Bob sure is doing some great things to dress up "plain ole cuttin' knives"!
 
A pair of beauties from a couple of the best makers around. Congrats!

Blues... very nice and makes me continue my craving for a Dozier. However, I do have a CF Gambit that I received about a 2 months ago. The function and design of the Gambit grows more on me every day--are you feeling the same way about your Gambit?

Oh yeah..and how about those thumb serrations on the Gambit. They don't look like much, but the way Trace cuts them they grip the hell out of your thumb.

Enjoy...JT
 
Thanks, guys.

JT, you got it right. ;)
 
Hey Elliot, glad your diggin your Gambit buddy.. That Dozier is damn nice too.. I have been a fan of Mr. Dozier for a long time.:cool:
Keep me informed on how the knife performs bud..
 
I am a big fan of Bobs knives and soon to be a big fan of Traces knives. I hope!:D Hint Hint ;)
 
A couple of beauties there, and I really love that Dozier. He is doing some very cool dressy stuff these days. :)

Congrats! Good way to start 2003 for sure!
