In stock,you can't go wrong with one of these models : 14S " Skinner" #16 ,a personal fav,I call this " sweet 16" This knife Wayne has no # ,it's a small drop point. I call it SDP ( small drop point) This is a#10 Drop Point And this is the #11 ,Wayne says he sells more of these to hunters than any other model Rounded handles that feel great in your hand . Tapered tangs ,ss fittings. Super heavy duty cowhide sheath ,Kydex too. Vacuum heat treated ,hollow ground ss blades These knives are hollow ground thin & come sharp. They will hone out to very sharp. If you want to get one and want me to tune the edge up for you,just let me know . I'll be getting other models too. Thank You ,-Vince

I tried, but the one I wanted is sold.
PS: Your website sucks a little. I go to say Fixed Blades, then Wayne Hendrix, then the list of knives, but I can see them all as the don't all fit on the screen and the drop down doesn't scroll.
So know I have to stop that, and scroll my screen down, so Fixed Blades is right at the top of the screen, then go through all the gyrations again.

I just received a #11 from Vince. I've owned a lot of handmade knives, I can say you will not find a higher quality knife at this price range.

Ping pong balls for the win. Once you've wrestled everything else in life is easy. Dan Gable I keep my circle small, I’d rather have 4 quarters than 100 pennies.
Ain’t easy havin pals.

I can see why. You really have to have one in hand to get an appreciation for it. I'll be using it on whitetails in a couple months.

Well Wayne says he sells more 11's than all others.
I discussed vaccuum oven heat treat . I was not aware of this until I heard Wayne say it,in one of our conversations. So I asked him about it.
He says in a commercial vaccuum oven,they can get the heat higher,and hold it longer,at a more consistent temp,than his HT oven in the shop. He prefers it over doing it in the shop. Taking the air out of the oven does something with the carbon,in the steel. I already forgot if it holds or takes away. But Wayne says it's better ,and since he knows WTF he's doing,to me,that's good enough.

I really don't even know. When I stop by and he pulls out the boxes of knives, I'am like a kid in a candy store. LOL

Wayne makes great knives. I have three of his. A model 10, a model 11 and I believe a model 12.
All great knives and like it was said above you can't buy one with this quality for less money that I know of.
