Rick makes some fine users,
Here are a couple I carry every day. Great slicers. Incredible grinds.

I love Rick's work. Like Ray Laconico, his style is all his own. Simple and clean yet very pronounced.
 
First knife of my grandsons' from Rick, not the exact knife as his has the acorn shield, our photos stink.

I really like that single blade Dog Leg. Very fashion forward!

I recently picked that one up.I have always liked a Dog Leg jack,but never thought I'd like it,with just the single main blade (no secondary pen).Boy,was I wrong,what a great EDC all around work knife

Here is another view of JatMat's fillet & a small "steak" knife These two are very handy blades,kitchen & field

Wow! Great photos of Rick's knives. I have acquired three of Rick's knives in the last couple of months. An Okra model from Arizona Custom Knives and a Serpentine Trapper and just the other day a Sway Back Jack both from Rick. Sorry but I am not able to post photos right now. I have a new computer and hope to learn how soon. You can see photos of the Serpentine Trapper on Makers forum Knives for sale and the Okra model at Arizona Knives web site. I have become addicted to Rick's knives and I think my next model will be his single blade Dog Leg Trapper. He makes such FINE KNIFE and they are VERY SHARP! And Rick is a good man to deal with.

Wow Vince, what is the thickness of the custom painters tool?
DSCF1184-1.jpg

Jim,I'm almost 100% positive,it is 3/32" 440C,same as your fillet.It has a fluted bolster & natural linen micarta,feels great in the hand.

Here is the Larry Parsons belt sheath I have for it

i also have a little green micarta folder from him.
