Hey guys, been contemplating doing this for awhile. I am a knifemaker and have been a lurker on W&SS for awhile now. I don't post much on bladeforums in general but have read alot of stuff you guys post. I really enjoy the fact that ya'll (yes Im southern) use your handmades for something besides field dressing game. I have started incorporating features into my knives based on stuff I have read here. I compete in the cutting competitions with BladeSports with my knives and I am a big fan of CPM-M4. This is my flickr site, I have not posted any new knives to it in awhile, need to fix that. Anyway, just got tired of lurking.

Great looking knives Donavon. :thumbup: I especially like your hunters and capers, but you have a nice neck knife design as well. Welcome.

Nice Work & some Beautiful Knive's, I like the Idea of the Big Blade Cutting Comp. that would be Fun, You'll have to upgrade to a Knife Make'er account and get some of them Knive's/Blade Design's In the Knife Maker's For Sale section,
 
I'll take a look at your sight a little later, but while I'm here I thought I'd say welcome and feel free to pass on any stories or wisdoms you have!
 
you dog you never told me you worked with stag. Donavon makes some solid knives. He ain't joking when say's he listens to ya'll he is just about geared towards W&SS.
 
Nice. i like the field knife. thats ones pretty cool

Yeah, I started two more of the field knives last saturday. One is for me, again (the first one I built that is in the pic was for me too, but someone wanted it worse than I did) and the other is a special order. The one I'm building for me is a little different design. I'll post pics of it when I am done, this is one of the main ones that I have used input from this forum on. I will explain the details when I post the pic. I also started 3 utility knives a little different than anything on the site that I think ya'll will like. Anyway, I plan on sticking around for awhile so ya'll will be seeing more.
