Here is my Slim Hunter that Dale and I came up with. Specs are Elmax, Green/Black Micarta scales with Red Liners. Awesome knife feels and balances perfect. Dale is a great guy and will make you happy.

Vince, I got that Dale's fillet that you have pictured. I wanted it for a boning-butchering knife, since Dale told me it was stiff, it is perfect for the intended job. Thanks both of ya.

Yo,I just got back from dinner,a fine meal.Excellent food. We went to a new Italian restaraunt we never went to. We heard good reviews. So we did not know if appetizers would be too much food,our knowledgeable & friendly waitress suggests,if the entree is too much,we take it home. So we do just that,my wife & I only eat half our dinner. I was going to give my veal to my son he'll be home in a little while. We pass on dessert. We pay. Another waitress we know,who did not wait on us,asked if we tried the cannoli. I say no it is not on the dessert menu. She says oh no it is not but we always have them fresh. So she brings us out asample. It was great. So then we are on our way out & she introduces us to the owner. My wife new people from his town. Walking to the car, I say oh,we forgot our dinners,so my wife goes in. I'm in the car now,got a buzz on. She comes back. Do you know that stupid bitch who suggested to take our dinners home threw the MFin' things out. So my poor wife now has to hear me call this woman a [bleep],a few times. What is wrong here. Is it me or what ? That [bleep] bitch with her phony [bleep] accent better go back to her country,it's not Italy,maybe Bosnia or something. Next time I go in there,and I will because the food was killer,I'm going to ask for the owner to come out & meet his friend Then I'll suggest he makes sure his waitress does not throw our leftovers out. This was no $80. dinner for two,d ouble down on that if we had dessert [bleep] [bleep]

Laughin'. I'd already be in jail. You don't know how to play it. Handcuffs for a veal cutlet ? No friggin way. I'll make sure my wife calls her friend to find out when our brilliant waitress is working. Next dinner I know what to expect,see what I'm sayin' ? Two people,$130. ,the level of service should not be,the waitres saying ,"she did not tell me to wrap the dinners up" Especially after it was herself who suggested to do just that. Bitch had the nerve to argue with my wife

I'd like to make a suggestion,tonight is not the night to ask for a blue handled knife instead of red,stag,not bone,oh,leather,not kydex. Anything else,Oh,yeah,a drop point,not a semi skinner. Go to Fort Henry he'll hook you the fugg up,right up yuz azz

That bitch suggested to save half the dinner for lunch tomorrow. That was the conversation as she suggested the $10 a glass beer (it was good) But then she throws the stuff out at the end,and argues with my wife ,to her boss standing there. That poor olive pickin' bastard wanted to cook more friggin' veal right then & there. My wife says, "I can't wait for that!"
All these [bleep] but I have to be the biggest [bleep] to foot the bill for this BS
I say to my wife,next time get a comp for a dinner,yes dear,two half dinners in their garbage = one dinner off my next bill

Thought this a good'a place as any. Been meaning to say something and got to use it a bit more lately so here goes. I really like this Howe Mtn knife as shown here in Vince's original ad back in May 2012. Blade shape is as perfect for deer as I can imagine. Just a treat to use, something about the way it lays down and slides between the layers... It's 1/8" CPM S35VN with ironwood scales and has become a valued possession well beyond the dollars paid. Thanks Dale, and Vince too...

I am in a quaint out of state city right now, about to head down to what sounds like a good BBQ joint. I do not plan to leave leftovers. I'd also like to say, I have a knife fs that you fella's have been bumping my thread all day Thank you all. It has INSANE , cf scales, tapered tang and boring ss. No need to wax the blade.
How you doing Dale ?

Couple of quick shots of some I'm just finishing out. Photos are crappy, but I wanted to get a quick picture or two of these posted. Top 2 are one offs that I only do for friends and family. First one is a recurve carver and the second is a similar recurve fillet. They look kinda neat but are a little bit of a bitch to sharpen unless you know what you're doing so only go to people I know will be able to keep 'em up. Next ones are various blades I just finished out. A new Lite hunter style and a couple of hunters and a skinner. Pictures don't do 'em justice but I'm heading out for week and wanted to get at least some kinda picture of them up before I left. Let me know what ya think. Dale

Digging the skinner 3rd from bottom. Can't tell on the handle. Kinda looks like ram horn. I shutter thinking about a recurve grind, awesome. Great knives.

I got to meet Mr Howe this week and examine a few of his knives up close and personal. He is a true craftsman. That ram horn skinner made me weak at the knees. Nice guy, enjoyed the visit, my kind of people.

I recently got to handle these knives personally, and as nice as they are in the pictures, they're even nicer in person. The rams horn skinner is especially nice. The horn is translucent to some degree when finished out as nice as Dale finishes it, and on the edges where the red liners are...that red seems to just go into the scales there and looks real dayum cool...! I'll say that the finish on the blades was also very, very nice. Besides the persistence and determination that Dale's shown in perfecting his craft of knife making...which is certainly producing some fine examples...he's also learning many things firsthand from Rick Menefee. And you'd be hard pressed to find a better person to teach one about making knives than him.

Thanks, getting the left/right alignment with the multiple layered liners and the angle cuts was more of a trick that I thought it was going to be until Rick showed me how to lay it out. First one I did wasn't perfect, but I think I've got it pretty well figured out. Still a royal PITA. Amazing how much complexity it adds to building the knife, but it sure does look nice when finished. Adding the bottom bolster is 10 times more complicated with the angle cuts. Definitely worth the effort on the end result, but drilling the holes and aligning everything takes some planning to make it work.

The complexity that goes into making these knives that you fellas do is a lot more than most folks would think. The little things (and there are many) do make a difference. I'm impressed tremendously by the craftsmanship you fellas demonstrate.

Going into deer season my son's was about as sharp as a spoon. No idea what he was using it for but it was shaving hair again in less than five minutes.

Thought this a good'a place as any. Been meaning to say something and got to use it a bit more lately so here goes. I really like this Howe Mtn knife as shown here in Vince's original ad back in May 2012. Blade shape is as perfect for deer as I can imagine. Just a treat to use, something about the way it lays down and slides between the layers... It's 1/8" CPM S35VN with ironwood scales and has become a valued possession well beyond the dollars paid. Thanks Dale, and Vince too... this is a nice pattern

But I'm on a new quest,after seeing here on this forum what others are buying,I'm now interested in purchasing over 100 drop point hunters,all similar to each other. But different handle scales & blade lengths. Then after exhausting my funds because for sure,there are more knives in the World than most have funds for,I'll have compiled one big freaking mundane pile O blades. NOT

NOT And Dale,you have a real nice diverse line up on your site. Hat's off to you. Guys just in case you need more than the good ol drop point,consider a knife from Dale. IMO he is doing fantastic work for a very modest asking price for a custom hand built knife

Small B&T with Exhibition stabilized Rosewood. It has some of the best Ironwood I've seen in a long time. So, what is it, really? Whenever you get mine done, I'ma gonna take a pic of them on a little speckled hide, more befitting of their size/use......

Most people don't know. Dale is stabilizing wood. It's turning out very nice with little penetration. Some of the best - I have used. I hear he gives price break after 5 lbs

Dale stabilized some block for me. Turned out very impressive. Those burls and spalted blocks that polish out with good patterns and colors should hence forth be known as WOODIES.

If I offered up a group buy there would be more than a few customers that would be lookin' to have my head on a stick as I'm way behind on orders.
I'm calling that pattern the Huntsman as Don and I created it based on his design. Looks like it's going to be a dandy small game skinner but I suspect he wasn't exactly guessing when he sent me the pattern he had in mind to start with.

Dale Great name for it. You know those folks waiting in line would be just fine with a group buy if you let them in on it.

Huntsman22 kills more schit than anybody I know. Rabbits, badgers, porcupines, coyotes...whatever. Lots of trigger time, lots of killin', and lots of knife work. He puts his stuff to work...! Good for you man...Love it...!
Every day on this side of the ground is a win.

That thing looks fantastic. Love the design. I love giraffe bone too. The sheath is sweet. I think a knife like that could see a lot of use.

You hadta know it was Chris and finding a set of Westinghouse that thick to contour like that was nothing short of a miracle.
