I'm Fletcher Knives aka Dylan Fletcher. I started out as Andy Roy's (Fiddleback Forge) apprentice back in February of this year. In April, I started my own line of knives. I quit my day job, moved my tools and KMG into Andy's shop, and went full-time in June. Now I have around 15 of my own designs and business is booming. Andy and I now share the shop. I still help him out as much as I can so that he doesn't bitch about me being in the way all the time. That's about it. Enjoy some pictures.
Awesomeness. Everything up there, I want (except the Tec-22). Love the scale left on look on knives and the designs are all perfect. :thumbup:
That Tec-22 took some serious work. I wanted one for a long time, even though I heard they were pieces of crap with a serious jamming issue. I bought one and created a feed ramp, polished it, and figured out what ammo it likes. Now it's a blast to shoot. Thanks for the compliments brother! I wouldn't mind seeing some of my knives in your leather. If any of my customers hit you up for a sheath, be sure and post it in here.
This is awesome bro, glad to see you got your own place and some awesome bladeware on display. Wait....who are you again?
How do you get that forged look on your blades? It's very impressive. Great line of knives all around.
There's two different forged looks on my blades. The standard is just the forging scale left over from the heat treat process. I leave it so that you can see exactly where the grind is, how high it is, and that it is uniform. Plus, it protects that part of the blade. The other is called "Ghost Scale" and the process for doing it is a secret. It usually comes out looking pretty awesome. Serves the same purpose, but looks a whole lot cooler.
Nice, selection. I have some sheaths ready for you. As soon as I figure out how to re-size the pictures I'll send you some pictures.
