Nessmuk in 3 months or less?

[Shotgun]

Is there any maker out there making Nessmuk type knives that doesn't have a waiting list as long as your arm? I really love the Nessmuk design but I'm going to go with a Swamp Rat for shear availability. That's like calling the kettle black I know but hell I'm not going to wait a year or more for one. If you want specifics: carbon steel in Nessmuk design to be 4 to 4 1/2 inch long. Preferably, 1/8 inch wide but slightly thinner is okay. Thanks for any replies.

Go buy an angle grinder and a pair of C-clamps. a couple pieces of O-1 wont cost you much, and somebody will heat treat it for you for a couple of bucks.

Sure it wont be prety, but it will do the job just the same.

Have you checked out the Bark River Lil' Nessy? VERY nice knives, for a great price. If you search the "production section" under the exchange you just might be able to find some fool looking to sell one for a shade over $100.

If nothing but new will do, these guys have a great reputation:

Second the suggestion of Bark River & DLT Trading.

Also check out the HI Cantina for a do-it-yourself Nessmuk:

Two knives from a $5 OH Butcher blem
Six knives from three OH Butcher knives
