That was the Ingram / winston knife I was speaking of. Ken honeycutt design. Knife isn't in hand, wanna say a #31 or #41. But I may totally wrong. Great in the hand.

Speaking of which, haven't seen Ken here in awhile, hope all is well.

I am not much of a folder guy, but I have always liked the looks of the Menefee and Lloyd folders.
The small three blade USA made Schrade have been my carry pocket knife for 40 years or so.
Someday I will go for one of the high end ones like shown above. Very nice.

Exceptional and the checkering and pattern (what can be seen) are striking. I'd love to see a picture of the entire rifle and stock if you'd PM one.

Matched pair from Mr Winston.

Here's my most recent one, also the only one I think is worth showing off.

Honestly more proud of the Sheath than the knife itself.
That is a fine knife, finer yet because it came to be due to your own hard work. Keep it up.

Did this one myself. I mess around as a hobby. Doesn't compare to the works of art of the true, professional knife makers posted here, but it works.

Is Rocky Menefee still making knives? I had one of his knives and he does excellent work.

I've not been in contact with Rocky much in the last 18 months or so, consequently I stand to be corrected, but no, I do not think he is making knives for sale. He is frying other fish.
