Looking for a knife, any recommendations?

Waldganger · Oct 25, 2011

hi there.

I've been looking at the Wohlwend WSK lately, and also the Fletcher Hatchula, and I was wondering if anyone else knew of a knife maker or production company that makes similar style knives

Cheers

The new Warthog from Kabar is the closest production knife to those.... Wide blade and a great handle. You can get the original Tom Brown Tracker WSK fro TOPS, but it's going to run about the same as the WSK from Wohlwend. I really like the Hatchula or Hatchula II myself, as it's made from O1 steel. One of these days....

I tested a Wohlwend WSK and it is an awesome knife but I'd have prefered a slightly thinner stock, which I'm sure Mark would do no problem.

I heard Bryan Breeden was working on a WSK style knife as well !

John of JK Knives and Matt of ML Knives would also make you any style of knife you request and both do great work.

As pitdog said I am working on a WSK type of knife, But I would not be able to start on anything like that till March of 2012. so if you are wanting something sooner you might look at the other knife makers Pitdog mentioned.

Any one of those guys will make you an Awsome knife ! The only one I don't have on from ...Yet is ML. But JK & Breeden & Wohlwend are all to top notch work & are great guy's to deal with ! Good luck !

Thanks for the heads up guys. I'm currently in two positions on Matts list (ML) so I'll probably get him to knock me one up for my second place.

Pitdog did I see you with a BK2??

Any chance for a comparison picture?

Cheers again
