One thing Dozier does very few do. He hollow grinds on a 18 inch contact wheel. The standard wheel is 8,10 and 14 inch. Your getting real close to a flat grind but behind the edge you steal get a hollow. Great cutters!

I've never own a Dozier but have wanted to for a long time. Other knives have seemed to have leapfrogged the Dozier on my "need" list. Gonna fix that while the opportunity is still here. The AG Russel website usually has a good selection. AG Russell has been a Dozier dealer for 40 years. They have a good selection. Another way to get a "one off" like mine, is to subscribe to the Dozier website. Once or twice a week, they put up several knives for sell. Some are not standard models. Like this one, they might just make a single one or try a different steel. If you see one you like, jump on it - they usually last less than an hour. They will email you when they are available. Good luck. If you order a Dozier from their website, I believe it's a 3 year wait. AG Russell has them on the shelf or can get limited models in 3-4 months.

And as good as it has always been.
Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.

I saw that one listed on the Dozier site. Nice snag.
