No number or address on his Instagram. It also says his books are closed.
From looking at his posts, I believe his business model is more along the lines of he makes a few knives in a given pattern then posts them for sale instead of taking custom orders.

Seems alot of makers are going that route.
Cant say i blame them.
Take a custom order of XYZ steel and high end scales and the buyer has seconds thoughts when it’s time to pay.
Or make several standard models and sell them as soon as posted on IG.

I don't blame them either Dave.
On the other hand, it makes me appreciate the fellows who still take custom orders more.

Well Hell..... Does anyone have a spike they want to sell? If not, if anyone follows him and sees him post up some spike's for sale I'd appreciate a heads up.

Jack he just posted a new model 1/2 hour ago. ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/XN5LjCg5/IMG-9396.png) I’ve got a spike, s90v, boned out a buck for the Ol man this year, wasn’t very impressed with the edge holding capability. Ymmv

👍. Hoping to talk to him on the phone tomorrow.
See if he’s open to doing one in magnacut.
Like the pattern on that one.

Another maker i follow on IG… Gentry Custom Knives. He makes a similar model.. ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/d3s7kcBV/IMG-4204.png) I like the bottom model. Pocket MUK. Seems everyone he does is 1/8” or thicker though. I think it’d be a slicer in 3/32” / .090”
