Very cool Knife... Any Idea who the maker is??

[mike375]

Hi, This is my first post. I have this very interesting knife and sheath but cannot tell who made it. On the end of the stag handle is a carved image of a stag with what looks like a KR or ER or something under it. Any ideas?

Thanks

It looks like a Keith Richardson.

Ken Richardson, Missouri maker. His family has been making knives and sheaths for several decades. Uses sawmill blades for his steel.

You're right. It's Ken not Keith. If I remember right, he lives in Salem, Mo.

Yep, lives not too far from me. Family business, been at it a long time.

Thanks for the info, I appreciate it. Yes looking at his website of knives I am certain you are correct. The fit, feel and weight of it makes me surprised that its not a more expensive knife. Oh well I was hoping I found a diamond in the rough not knowing the maker but I guess I overpaid for it

Thanks again!
