This is good stuff here,this is what I really enjoy about selling hand made knives .........

Bret Dowell EDC post .
These knives are spoken for. The heat is on in Oklahoma.
This is the knife I worked with Bret on,and what he came up with. It is nothing fancy but the simple design is what is the beautiful thing about it.


" I can't put down the blue knife. Scales were just a tad thicker. It feels good. Blade steel is a touch thicker than the first knife I sent you and goes better with this pattern I think. It's a perfect little knife. " says Bret


The first was .093 ,these are .108 . So basically in between 3/32" witch I first specified,and 1/8" They are ground thin,very scalpel like, and I get the sheaths from Larry Parsons double stitched.

With many orders on Bret's books & his daughter Taylor now in the shop , I've asked if she would like to do a few of these.

We are going to take few orders , at a very slow pace .

So post your comments ,and thank you all for being here .

Looks like a very useful pattern. Dimensions? Materials? Cost? Delivery time?

Thanks, RS

Bret Dowell " EDC " . I worked with Bret to come up with a compact drop point,that's big enough to easily dress out a whitetail ,but could also serve as an all around fixed blade,or bird knife too. It is compact but yet has a four finger grip,it melts in your hand. I told Bret I wanted a Dowell though. This is what he came up with,his design. 3/32" D-2 is hollow ground & scalpel like. Green linen,red liners,ss corby bolts & lanyard tube. 6-7/8" OAL with 3" blade from tip to handle,2-3/4" of edge. Larry Parsons right side vertical belt loop sheath. I have the same sheath with no loop if you prefer. I personally think this is the sweetest little EDC drop point.

That is the text from the first one I sold ,by Bret. It went for $300. . That includes USA shipping and Paypal fee's

I'm hoping to be able to offer these by Taylor at around $225. Paypal fee's & shipping extra. That 225 number may be a few dollars more ,I've just started to put this in the works,it's slow going & a process.

But I feel I can stay at that. Knife will be tang stamped T Dowell

This was the first one

Wow, those look really nice Vince. Kudos to you and the Dowell team!

Great work.

Thank You,but this was all Bret and Larry Parsons on leather. It'll be great to get some in by Taylor

Great knives.

What do you call the orange w/ red liners?

Dave that's bone linen micarta and once in I'll try to photo with accurate color on that species of micarta,as I think it may be lighter. Nice stuff though

Simple functional classic. The type of knife I lean toward. Me likey.

Ditto

I've sworn off buying any more knives but it's tempting.

Thanks guys.

This is bone linen micarta These knives are ground scalpel sharp. This is the Larry Pasons sheath it'll come with ,double stitched like this for safety double wide welt. This one has no belt loop. The knife will be stamped T Dowell & built by Taylor Dowell,price $240. shipped in USA Paypal fee included.

I can't say enough good stuff about this one. I ordered leather for 2 knives in the near future,look me up Thanks everyone
