Here's some pictures of some recent knives by Rick First a fillet he made for an up coming fishing tournament A Western Trapper a friend of mine ordered And then this one is Rick's rendition of a Dowell folder,that is a take off of a Loveless style folding "Stiff Horn" Knife is marked Proto,has red liners,and that's a warncliffe blade is what they call it . This one ships out to Carusoville tomorrow for redistribution.

Those are all very sweet. I really like the filet. It has some of the ivory micarta that I am very fond of.

That is the sweetest custom folder I have seen in a long time, maybe of all time. The blade profile with a hint of belly and top swedge is perfect in my opinion. I also like the upper and lower lines that flow well together.
I would like to see that pattern in yellow and red Micarta if they exist.

4-3/8" closed titanium framelock folder. Open it is 7-7/8" Blade is 3-3/8" with 3" of cutting edge. Hollow ground 154CM ss is a hair over 1/8" thick. The thicknes of the handle is 7/16" . Lightweight,my guess is no more than 3 ozs. Glass smooth ,feels great in the hand. The blade folds into the handle compact so it carries well. Really nice job Rick. This one sold but I will be getting more on a very limited basis,if you are interested contact me. Here is the eye candy

beatiful lines & bevels; the blade almost dissapears when closed--no easy feat. i.m.o. rick is pionerring a tactical but not tactical knife--made to be carried in any belt sheath or pocket.a sleek all metal folder that doe'snt look like a clubby black mall ninja model.--cranky72

The only thing that would make that ivory one look better is if it had fake tits.
