We have added a customers knives gallery to our site. I know a lot of our customers are regular members on here so I wanted to see if any of you guys had pictures you wanted to share that I could add.
Thanks - JT
 
I’ll share if you want.

I’m always amazed at the speed at which you turn these out.

Thanks. Just finished a batch of 20 and then hitting that last batch just got back from ya a couple of days ago.

What kind of handle material is that on the last knife and where do you find that turquoise. That is beautiful!

That is elk horn on the handle and the turquoise is Jantz's reconstituted gemstone material. I won't use it for a whole handle, it cracks too much and my knives do get used pretty hard, but as a spacer I've had good luck with it. Thanks:

I'm a fan of your style generally, but that may be the nicest looking of your knives that I've seen online. Beautiful.

Thanks. I call that The Cowboy Toothpick. Its a design that has evolved over the years and I make it in all three steels I work with, damascus, 26C3 and AEB-L. Its purpose in the shop? Its that design ya can just fit in on that sheet of steel when one of your other models won't quite fit and ya can get one more knife out of that steel without tossing a chunk of steel almost big enough. In our cowboy world its a great ear marking/castrating design.

My goodness you make great looking knives and sheaths Dave. I really like your turquoise in the handles here.

Thanks Randy
 
I think the thing that has attracted me to knife making is the "functional art" that is created. My edc is scary sharp but banged up, scratched, marked, battered and used hard. The sheath is rough too from every day outdoor wear. BUT when I pull it out to use it people say, "whoa, that's a great looking knife....can I see it?"
It is a beautiful eye catching tool....functional art. That is what I see all over this page and forum!
