I did a search on the forums but nothing came up. Any info would be apreciated. Thanks.

A.J. Collins does some really cool stuff. At the higher end, I saw a beautiful one by Bill Moran for sale at Dave Ellis's website.

I have a one-off they did in O-1. Love it to death. Holds a great edge, came in a good sheath, looks awsome.

Thanks guys! Yitz, does mr. Collins have a web site or a photopoint album?

I would think that you could pick your favorite maker on this request.
Have even seen some by Darrel and Mel Pardue (an auto or two by Mel, not sure that I have seen him do one in a fixed blade).

Flava, I don't think so. His address is 9651 Elon Ave, Arleta, CA 91331. Phone is (818)762-7728. He should be at the NY show in March (another reason for you to make the trip!).

I've been thinking about making a couple fancy push daggers. What kind of steel and handle material were you thinking about? Have a certain style or pattern in mind and what kind of sheath were you wanting?

Take care!! Michael

Always think of your fellow knife makers as partners in the search for the perfect blade, not as people trying to compete with you and your work!
