I just scrolled through this thread,some very nice knives !

Have a Kingfisher in my gun safe,I bought it here. Been handled ,but never used as far as I know. I look at it once and a while, think about selling it and put it back in the safe.
I either need to make it used or sell it...Hmmm...

Always like how David and Gene jigged the scales.

That’s a good looking knife!

As nice as any set of knives on the Fire. Yowzers. Simplistic beauty in design, and the wood is absolutely stellar. Nice you were able to make a score for three sets of scales like that. Just beautiful.

I really like the "Catfish" pattern I bought from Dale Howe for removing facia/silver-skin. That tucked-over tip stays under the silver-skin really well. The 1st Catfish I saw was on here and made by Menefee. I know Vince had one on here earlier this year by Miller as well.

I tried emailing Howe also a while ago and didn’t get a reply so I wasn’t sure if he was making knives anymore. I’m not on Facebook or instagram and it seems like that is how most communicate now. I have a big fillet from him that is not the catfish pattern that is a cutting beast. I do like the catfish pattern.

Dave,
Gene changed the way he jigged his handles and I personally very much prefer the latest pattern/method. That orange handled small boner is his old pattern. You notice on that orange handled knife how the jigged pattern is so symmetrical and in order? It looks as if done by a machine and mass produced that way or something. Gene changed to a more random pattern that looks like the old time jigged or wormy bone handles found on early 1900's knives. Notice the difference between that and his last jigging pattern on my B&T...

Either way is nothing but top shelf.

I have a few Ingram's and I actually use them. Probably worth more if I didn't but its why I bought them! Nothing like using a finely crafted tool for it's intended purpose.

I used to send them to Gene to resharpen but now that he's retired do you guys have suggestions on who to send them too? I sharpen most of my knives and do a decent job. But when Gene puts an edge on it is sharp and last like no other. Skinning and breaking down a moose without sharpening in the field is possible with one his knives! I ain't that good of a knife sharpener..

Jelky’s boners are hard to beat, great craftsmanship, ergonomics, heat treat, just damn good workhorses. I’ve got 4 now, 1 I keep in the camp trailer, 1 in the kitchen and 2 in my huntin bag. Got 2 on order for Pards as Christmas gifts. 👊🏻

But believe GWB does,

Ken Honeycutt Dorado…

Ken learned from David and Gene

I was fortunate enough to get the Dorado from GWB. It is even better than the pics show. Yea, it is sharp!!! Ken sent band-aids to GWB when he sent him the knife.
