Picked up two excellent pieces this past weekend at the New York Custom Knife Show (NYCKS).
I've always liked the work of master knife maker Bud Nealy, I purchased one of his '
Pesh-kabz' knives, the blade design influence goes back to a Persia-Iran-Afghan knife blade designed to penetrate chain-mail armor during the 14th-16th century.
All his knifes are "purpose built", both the knife and his patented multi carry sheath system are designed for non printing very low profile.
And a very nice custom piece I purchased, made by master Polish knife maker Michael Zieba based in Brooklyn, N.Y.
Coyote G10, full titanium on the lock-bar side anodized bronze color, blue anodized stainless steel pivot and screws, opens with a ball bearing flipper system.
Beautiful simple design, limited edition only 25 made.
