    Default tac/utility proto and buffolo handled utilities

    the tac/utilty was finished a couple months back,just never etched it.i wanted a line-cutter notch but did'nt want to go with a conventional notch so i decided on the single oversized serration.there's a few things i might change,like grinding the bevels higher,and omitting the false edge.probably do a tanto version as well.
    the 2 buffalo handled utilities i just finished,have'nt made those in a few years.

    Beautiful blades, my man!

    Can you do something like the Spyderco 'Street Beat' but at a user friendly price point? I would love to have a fixed blade waistband knife but not at a seriously high price...even stamped would be fine so long as it would get the job done.

    hi Ikor
    if i did a knife like the spydie street beat it will probably cost u more as i do everything in my workshop,by hand [accepted definition of applying the workpiece by hand to various machines].but i would'nt as copying designs tends to be bad for export business.
    edited to add,shit. i just saw the price.i thought that was a 100 dollar knife.i could get u 1 for 2 g's
