My linerlock® folders vary in price from $400 up, depending on the style,options and embellishments you choose.

I'd like to emphasize that I'll make almost any style, shape or size that suits your fancy. Your design or mine.

I'm a true custom made to order knifemaker.

This one was made for a lady who wanted a unique knife that no one else has.

She got what she wanted. I like it.

Do you like the old Barlow pocket knives? I made this one for a collector who has over 200 Barlows. It's a Barlow Linerlock®, instead of being a slip joint like the original. It opens and closes smooothly! You don't have to grit your teeth and break your fingernails.
 
It has a 2 5/8" long blade of ATS34 steel, hardened and triple tempered to Rc 60. Titanium bolsters and liners, and beautiful honey colored natural bone handle scales.

The original knife used as an example was made by George Wostenholm, of Sheffield, England.

I've made lots of tactical folders too. This one has a 3 1/2" ATS 34 blade, partially serrated. The blade and the G10 scales have been sand blasted to prevent reflections.

I'm a true custom knifemaker.

I'll make you a folder or fixed blade knife of any style, size, shape, etc. You can select one of my styles or send me a sketch or picture of the knife you want. It's all up to you, as long as it's a full tang fixed blade, linerlock, framelock, button lock or slipjoint.

I do all the work on my knives myself, including the heat treat unless the blade is too long for my furnace.

I especially enjoy making folders of all kinds, and I like making state of the art old style barlow linerlock pocket knives.
