I don't even want to know how much that would cost, definitely worth more than me :eek:

Dylan, you know that to me, you're priceless. :)

(About $6.42 to everyone else though.)

1. Rick Eaton/ Michael Walker *

2. Dellana

3. Kenneth King

4. Stephen Olszewski

5. Harvey McBurnette

* Technically I own a M. Walker knife. But it is a vey plain-jane slipjoint 03 and not one of his artistic pieces which is what I really want.
 
In no particular order.
1. Jerry Fisk, Southwestern Bowie in wolfstooth damascus.
2. Ron Newton, a "Shootin' Newton" Bowie.
3. Kevin Cashen, O1/L6 damascus recurve Bowie.
4. David Broadwell, Norris ladder damascus subhilt.
5. Bailey Bradshaw - folding Bowie

I'm on the list of 4 of those guys though... so it doesn't really count.
Ones I'm not planning on getting YET but would love to?
David Broadwell subhilt.
Jimmy Fikes camp.
Dietmar Kressler integral subhilt.
Don Fogg gent's shiv.
John Fitch, big Bowie.
 
Its nice to see Steve Dunn geting respect on this thread. I think he is one of the best Master Smiths hidden in plain sight in the knife world. I custom ordered a 8" bowie from him in 2003, and it remains the highlight of my knife collection...
 
Yes,
Dunn is one of the best.This Bowie I bought is one of my favs.It is stunning.
I'll get some pics soon.

Only five??? Well, let´s try.

A nice tanto style damascus blade by Don Fogg would be my first. (but I would be happy with most any Fogg knife...)
A Moran featherweight, the second.
The third would be a scottish basket hilt sword with a damascus blade by Vince Evans.
A Centofante folder, nothing fancy, for EDC, would be the fourth.
Fifth, anything from Virgil England.

I had both a Fogg knife and a Centofante folder, but let then go, as usual, and now I deeply regret it...
 
Sorry I'm late chiming in on this one.

Here's my list of makers I want, but don't have YET:

Dean
Crowell
Connor
Hogstram
Bose
