You can no more tell someone how to do something you've never done, than you can come back from somewhere you've never been...

You can say that again! Yowzzzaaa!
Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.

That guy Parsons does an absolutely beautiful job on sheaths. Top sheath here is one of Larry's for Rick Menefee's Hunter pattern.

Dennis and I got to see these two in the making and I have to say it was hard to keep from beggin' to buy 'em. Pictures just don't do these two justice.

I think i will have 6 if i finish the big subhilt. I will get a group shot after i get parson to make sheaths for the lot. Two orders tonight on Dennis's knife which is what it will be named. Dale has been working on a web site that is as good as it gets that will be up and going soon as i have a little time to get some pictures around. I might make some special knifes in the future to post and sell on it. I have been wanting to make a few bowies and even maybe a few linerlocks.

this trip was'nt my 1st to a knifer's shop but my first real trip thru the whole process. in fact i was realy fatigued by just following dale & rick from station to station.oven to air cool to cryo to grinder to demagnitizer to flat grinders to wheel grinders to deburr to forever back & forth. may i say i much prefer moving beds & couchs cleaning carpets to actually making quality knives. hundreds & hundreds of mini journeys that took a complete day & the blades had been heattreated before our arrival. per hour rick probably makes about 8 or 9 dollars an hour. outsiders would be truly amazed by the amount of effort to make a real fine folder.--cranky72

Vince Mazzei has the orders to make it happen maybe for a group buy after the blade. Bust his balls maybe it can happen!Everybody ought to have a fish or butcher knife in the kitchen. The little fish knife Vince owns is one of my all time favorite and useful knifes. I want a rick menefee filet knife??????
