I've recently decided to follow in the footsteps of my grandfather (C Gray Taylor) and father (David Taylor) and make custom knives. Unlike my father and grandfather, I'll be making tactical knives. Over the past few months Ive been in the process of prototyping and perfecting my first model. I am now officially taking orders for the GDS Vipera. Price will vary according to materials and extras.

To get in line and acquire or to ask questions, email me at GDSKnives@yahoo.com

G'day and welcome to the forums! It looks like you do some cool work. If you want to advertise as a knife maker here you need to pay for a "knife maker/service provider" membership. You can find it by clicking the "paid subscriptions" area near the top of the screen.

Welcome!

If you want to advertise and sell your wares anywhere on Bladeforums, you'll need to upgrade to a Knifemaker/Craftsmen membership.

Once you do that, you'll be able to post your knives for sale and showcase your services in the Makers Market. http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/forumdisplay.php/767-KnifeMaker-s-Market-Knives-amp-More-for-Sale

That is a neat looking knife! I hope you take the plunge.
 
See the FAQ for Bladeforums rules at http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/faq.php
Paid memberships at http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/payments.php
Exchange rules at http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/announcement.php?f=746&a=98
Exchange rules are in effect in every forum.

You need a Basic membership to post a trade thread,
a Gold membership to sell what you've bought,
a Knifemaker membership for what you have made,
or a Dealer membership if you sell for others.

Once you pay for your membership, go back to Paid Subscriptions to see when it takes effect. PayPal costs more and takes longer to go through. Credit card payments are automated.

Then go to Settings (upper right)
then to Permission Groups (left side)
then select your correct membership level.

I suggest browsing the FEEDBACK forum at the top of the Exchange, especially the stickies, for problems to watch out for. Browse the forums you are most likely to post in or buy from:, Dealer, Knifemaker, or Individual, to see how members communicate.
 
All,
okay, I'll upgrade to maker membership ASAP. Thanks!
