Show Us Your Traditional Customs!

Very nice. I like the feel in hand of the smaller lannys patterns. What are the specs on that one Gary?

Thanks, Jason. This one is either 3 1/2 or 3 5/8. The stag is rounded and tapers from the butt to bolster providing a great comfortable grip.

Glad to see the great responses here! I have my share of production blades and I love them too. But something about a nice custom in the pocket and in the hand just makes things that much better!

Send her to me, @Horsewright and I'll put that beauty to use

John, I don't think I've seen the Erickson lock back recently, it's a beauty. The Bose collection isn't exactly shabby either

As long as I'm throwing compliments your way Drew. This too was yours, great taste, thanks.

Just very briefly, that one was meant for you me thinks. It is phenomenal: ) Thank you!

Here's one from Brent Cramer that has been posted many times before. Lanny's Clip Jr., CPM-154 and Amber Stag.

You have some pieces that are just next level, words just don’t do them justice!

Thanks Jerry. Need to do another group pic of the Boses with a couple recent additions. This creamy little swayback is very happy here

Doesn't suck either.

Alan, I thank you . . . and Doug thanks you!

Traum, that looks like a phenomenal slicer. I've got one of Stu's little guys as well. 5.85" OAL, redheart wood and 52100 @ 62. The blade is 0.04" at the spine, right in front of the handle. Very delicate! Here it is next to a Queen #40 gunstock.

Tony Bose and Kerry Hampton Barlow pair.

Wonderful display sir!

Those look about perfect! Real beauties!

If you don't mind me inquiring,
How long are they? I assume they're 154 cm?
Pardon me for asking, I'm not familiar with customs but what significance does the "Wilfred Works" stamp on the bolster have?

Peregrin I had a similar Erickson swayback about ten years ago, mine was too tough for me to open. It was a great knife though

This one is around 10 years old also. It's 3 1/8" with Antique Ivory Micarta and an ATS-34 blade and spring. The spring is pretty stiff, maybe an 8. I don't mind it too much, but prefer a lighter spring for edc. Other then that personal preference thing, the knife is just perfect.
I did get it on the secondary market, maybe it was yours?

Mine was black linen micarta and I think it was a 3 1/2" version.

52100 and Carribou bone by local maker Ken Marsden, haven’t skint anything with it yet but it’s a workhorse for sure.
