Rick does make some very nice knives. I’ve got a couple.
I guess u like a certain style. And just go with that. I don’t think i have the first knife in wood. All g10 or micarta. Wood Just doesn’t do it for me. One day I’ll step out and get a bone knife. Really like Winston’s fluted camel bone.
There’s a guy on BF, Austin Goldman is his handle. Prolly his name. Makes some really good looking knives.
Have you seen any of Winston’s folders? He really shows out on those.
