Kerry Hampton Knives

The Old Dog's influence is obvious ...

Kerry makes a great knife, superior fit and finish, well deserving of the Wilfred Works stamp. Thanks!

Oh, how beautiful! I love the long pull on the saber grind! :)
 
She's a beauty Kerry, but then again all your knives fall into that category...

The Ivory is so beautiful, what a shame the government has decided to stick it's nose into such a small area. I am afraid this will
have the exact opposite effect and cause the poachers to be more overt in their attempt to get even more money for what is now
a more valuable commodity!

How bout that...didn't know the ivory LC made the hallowed pages of KH Knives thread :) The macro images are a bit scary cuz, geeesh, even with magnification my eyes ain't that great. Thanks for the kudos guys.
 
My knifemaking output is slower than molasses on a winter day but I do manage to finish one now and then. This is the biggest folder I have made to date. It is an old 5 1/2" swell-center hunter pattern that Tony has that differs slightly from the standard 5 1/4" version. This knife is a beefier model...not as slender as the standard. Steel is D2 and the frame is covered with some seriously black ebony. NY Knife Co. Shield.

Wow, a modern example that would easily pass for 100 years old (if it wasn't so shiny)

Simply excellent!
