Billy Watson - 12/19/10
You guys who know me,know I love knives. I mostly carry & use customs w/ hollow ground ss blades. I own & display some vintage stuff & production knives,too,but I mostly just own those like a collector.
I also do alot of meat cutting & cooking & have a pretty nice array of custom handmade & vintage & production kitchen knives.
Now in the case of Billy Watson's knives,I have a soft spot for his knives. He is a great guy to deal with,and I do believe his work is modestly priced.
Last year around this time I sold two of his here on the site.
His knives have a feel of old world craftsmanship.He does period correct knives. Forged carbon blades & hand made Damascus,too.
Billy has slowed down making knives,but if you are lucky to get one,hang on to it. They are irreplaceable.I do not think Billy is taking orders,but he told me he had a couple of Damascus knives available.A great opportunity for purchase.
I have a hunter & a folding trapper inbound here soon & I'll post pics.
But I asked Billy to join here,he said he had a Damascus knife or two he wanted to sell.I told him about this site & all the hunters here are good guys,who appreciate these types of knives
Here is his web site :
http://www.watsonknives.com/
I'm going to email him .w/ a link to this thread & hopefully he'll make it here
I'll get you some pics of the knives I have inbound for Christmas
Talk Soon & Thanks,
