Name your TOP 5 Custom makers & why, (& you have to own at least 1 from those picks)

1) Shiva Ki,Whatever has been said,as far as viability of intent of purpose it's gonna' be tough to find a better knife in the Fighter/Killer style.
2) David Anders,His Bowie's are hard to find reasonably priced,there's a reason.
3) Jerome Anders,The apple doesn't fall far from the tree and Kathy Anders makes excellent sheaths.
4) Don Hanson III
5)John Fitch
Edited.Can I add Bill Bagwell,first Bowie I ever wanted and still haven't got it.

1) R.W. Loveless - who wouldn't! He's one of the icons and a leader in design. What maker doesn't have a "Loveless style..." pattern available.
2) Dietmar Kressler - there are some idiosyncrasies I'd like to change (what maker doesn't have them) but is the best in the world at what he does. His integrals are unmatched!
3) Steve Johnson makes a flawless knife but I can't afford them anymore, so I'll say John Young instead. About the same quality and, for the time being, affordable.
4) Scott Sawby - I'm new to folders but his Swift was my first. His locking mechanism is simple and effective. His work is flawless. I'm a new fan.
5) Dab Winkler - probably an odd choice considering the rest of my collection, but I just like them!
