I'm looking for a Tabor "Squirrel Hunter". Is Mr. Tabor still around?

He calls them a squirrel knife but I had him make this one without the bone notch and it works just fine on turkeys. One of my prettiest knives - but then it doesn't have synthetic scales or a kydex sheath so I'm sure not all would agree. Sent you a PM with the contact information I have,

Mr. Tabor had heart surgery a few months back and hasn't been back making knives as of yet

Thank you for the update, working with Raleigh on my knife design was a very pleasant and memorable experience. Sending along my kindest thoughts in support of his full recovery.

Sent you a PM with the contact information I have, I've seen you post that one before and always thought it was a great looking knife. Thanks for posting it again. Hope Mr. Tabor is ok and recovering quickly.

I agree. That particular knife of Boise's is a looker. I've always liked it. Raleigh made his own mosaic pins too.
Every day on this side of the ground is a win.
