What knife pic sights do you guys repeatedly go to?

Besides the main knife co. pages, it's Les Robertson's site, AZ custom cutlery, and Chai Cutlery.

I've also been going to all the Photopoint member's pages particularly Sing's (gotta love those neck knives) and Donald's (between us we've got nearly the entire original Busse line

Chai, KnifeArt, and A.G. Russell would be my favorites, currently. Maybe because I've developed an itch for a William Henry and like looking at the pictures. Australian Oak or Bone???
 
For my own viewing pleasure:

Kit Carson's
R.J. Martin's
CRK (wish they had more decorated Sebenza's to show

)

Favorites as of late:
Simonich Custom Knives
Blackwood Knives (really nice guy)
TOPS knives though they don't seem to reply to email. Which is sad since I am not going to buy from them if they are not willing to answer my questions.

Newt Livesay's Wicked Knife company is another. Newt....I emailed you a week ago?

I have been to www.griffithknives.com a lot. After seeing Lynn's high quality work in person at the Tulsa show, I want to road trip to his shop.
 
KnifeArt.com without question. I like Larry's service too. Very quick and reliable. What I most enjoy is his fine selection and taste in knives and the great organization of the web site.

Before I started hanging out here, I was (am) thoroughly addicted to KnifeArt.com. I checked in every morning and every night. Everyday I would fall in love with something else and would worry that something I wanted was going to disappear Before I could afford to buy it. I've seen lots of treasures find another home before I could hit the purchase button. And sometimes things mysteriously show up on the site with that darned 'sold' tag already up. Now, after checking out all the new goodies, I search his site for 'sold' just to see what I missed.

I also like AGRussel's Cutting Edge, Arizona custom knives, and Les Robertson's site. Nordic knives has some nice blades, but the web site needs some serious work (pictures are Much too small. Descriptions to sparse).

Just for the Drool factor, it's hard to beat the ArtKnife.com site. No sales. Just fine examples of great maker's work.

Funny you should mention that, I was inspired to go take a look at KnifeArt.com when I read a post by StJames, and I've spent the better part of an hour drooling over all the knives he has there.
Tried to be good and start out on the `Folders under $500' section, but didn't take long to say what the heck `Folders over $500 section' Nice blades there, just ain't got the money!!!

Also like RJ Martin site and Rob Simonich's as well. Both are good people to deal with!

Thanks Devilmutt!
It's not the most proffesional website because I do it myself in between making knives! I do try to keep it updated with new pics often.
I just added my latest hawkbill design and will be updating it througout the weekend!

I like to keep an eye on what Lynn Griffith is up to at all times, just great work and a great guy.

But major salivation is produced by KnifeArt, Larry has terrific taste in knives and one of the best sites around. I think the new picture he has up of The Diablo is my #20, so now I love it even more.

Bill, do you have any of Brodziak's work? Those small knives look nice.
 
Definitely KnifeArt. For artsy stuff http://pweb.netcom.com/~bsmythe1/
I love that site, I was in the neighborhood yesterday and stopped by the Gallery, very nice but I won't have to go back anytime soon, the website works just fine in this case. I was in Paragon Sports the day before, they have a very nice selection of customs and I stop in there every chance I get, just a little more realistic. Here's there site but in this case reality is better, paragonsport.com
 
Smoke;
I have two knives from David's gallery page.
#1 is the Damasteel Skinner - it is even
better looking than the picture. My second
knife is #16 the hunter great color in the wood, fit and finish are exceptional. These were my first knives and I ordered on the net and from a international dealer. I jumped right in! I was suprised by the import tariff though!
 
Bill, see that's the deal. Those Ringrips look tempting. I can barely afford US prices though. How much was that tariff?

Smoke;
I can't find my paperwork, but I think it was around an extra $40 to the US Postal Service who handled the paperwork for US Customs. If I find the exact amount, I let you know. Even with the added expense, I will order from David again.
 
Thanks for the feedback Bill, could you email me please. gsmoke@hotmail.com
