No one better than our own Michigan Road Kill here at 24hour. I have several of his and if you don't like what he makes I will buy it from you. Here is one he made for me. ![[Linked Image from photos.smugmug.com]](https://photos.smugmug.com/2019/Knives/i-24nXzv3/0/ee0f79e5/XL/IMG_0473-XL.jpg) And that steel is tougher than woodpecker lips. Wow, that is beautiful. I will reach out to him

They all make beautiful knives using high end steel. I have two of Tim’s ( michiganroadkill).
The few days of searching for what you’d like isn’t wasted, IMO.
If you take the time it takes, it takes less time.

And that steel is tougher than woodpecker lips. You are correct, you may find cheaper but you won't find better. Tim doesn't live to far from me and I've seen his operation, he makes all his stuff old school and does a hell of a job. I bought a Bowie from him and the thing is flawless, I just have to convince myself to use it instead of drooling over it. He's a conservative, a hunter, and a fisherman. He lives the life and makes great stuff.

And that steel is tougher than woodpecker lips. Nice. I especially like the fitting of the scales. I had no idea that MRK was a knife maker.

Have knives made by Dan Thornburg (Dan308), Charles May and Rick Menefee. All are highly functional Works of Art.

Steingass is superb Winston knives are a great value I believe Winston has someone else make his sheaths but they’re second to none. The leather quality on both of mine is fantastic.

Most of my customs are from Kim Ralston out of MS. Mike Barranti makes his leather items. Both do great work and are great to work with.

Tim Olt makes wonderful knives. My other 'go to' maker is Rick Menefee. This is a Loveless style drop point by him. ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/O0gzLik.jpg)

Make sure to purchase a knife made of steel that you have the ability to sharpen, which is obviously purely based on your sharpening system/technique.

You can't go wrong with a Loveless design. It could be one of the most emulated knife designs in modern knife making history. Here is one that I bought from my uncle.Unfortunately this maker has passed on but his knife remains as a hallmark of his expertise. ![[Linked Image]](https://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbthreads/gallery/80/full/246878.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbthreads/gallery/80/full/246879.jpg) Good luck in your search.
