Would you trade for one tarnished soul ? : )
 
The last Joe Houser 119 Brahma for me. Oddly enough I don't even have a regular 119 Brahma in my collection. :eek: They are too expensive now. :(

Black phenolic handle with Micarta and aluminum spacers. Simple, but clean looking.

That's the only one I didn't buy from his last Web Blast.
I purchased all the others...

That has a nice clean look to it.
Oh well.
Thanks for sharing yours!!!
Joe definitely did some nice work.

I hope Buck is allowing the next generation of knife makers to show off some skill here in the future.

I ended up purchasing one of each due to that being the last Joe Houser web blast.

I too hope someone makes a name for themself as a Buck custom knife maker.

I hope you have them all out somehow.
That's a pretty impressive group of 119s.

Very nice selection. Love that 118.

The last JH web blast had a total of 7 different custom knives (8 if you count the 408RWS, not customized though).

the stuff like that ^he made from warranty and scrap are my favorites. one of a kind.....not 1 of 10 or whatever limited run. that one needs a custom sheath though.......deserves one anyways......

yep, think that era is gone forever from Buck.....sadly......

Totally agree with you regarding an era that has passed. It feels like since the new guy took over they going the way of "corporate"
