A beautiful John Howser modfied warny with some high tec steel,what a gorgeous little carry knife,he does a fine job,one of my fav's The bone on this is UN REAL & all together,on this knife, could not pass on that one !
A Bobby Toole fixed blade ,with cocobolo scales,there were so many great finds,Bobby is a crafstman,period. His grinds are scalpel like,great Fit & Finish
You really need to check his knives out!!
A Tom Goodpasture mini Santoku,with white bone,tapered SS stock,scalpel like,these are great knives & value priced,one to watch,you have to be savvy,but I stumbled upon him.I did not know he'd be there,he was sharing a table & was not listed,but I knew about him from KnifeWorld magazine
Wayne Hendrix hunters (3),for some hunters I know.I know a lot of knifemakers that say Wayne's work is a great value,you'd just have to feel it,to know it
I bought Scott a Tim Britton baby bullet lockback,stabilized camel bone scales ,BG42 blade & engraved bolsters,for putting up with me & his Bday in June (Scott taught me the two bird one rock trick

) Tim Britton,a gentleman & craftsman
