I will make, anyone who desires, a knife duplicating the style of any knife I have previously made. I WILL NOT make an "exact replica", as that would violate my pledge that every knife I make is unique, one of a kind. I will, however, make a knife of the same basic design and appearance. I will also make any knife, (within reason), of someone else's design. Send me a diagram, with your choice of materials and finish. I'll look it over and send you a quote.
Once again, anyone wishing to order or purchase a knife, please email me at:
