It is with a heavy heart that I post a local Friend’s collection of knives made by me. If any of you reading this have ever enjoyed my work, it’s probably due to the influence and support I received from Augie Enriquez. These are all knives from at least 20 years ago. There are storage marks and sheath wear on most but they are otherwise as I delivered them to Augie. Prices are very fair I believe and ALL proceeds will go to his Family. Prices include US shipping. I’ve tried to list steels and handle materials but I’m working from memory. The stainless blades are either ATS-34 or 154CM. Those were the only stainless steels I sold Augie. These knives also carry my old laser etched maker’s mark with the sawmill blade logo. I am not listing individual dimensions but I’ve placed a measuring tape in each pic for reference.

Sorry for your loss, and hopefully Mr. Enriquez's family finds peace.

You actually started my Busse collection with a trade for a firearm. (I ended up with one of your skeleton handled knives and the Busse FBMLE)


That started my learning how to convex edges, make leather sheaths, and make my first knife our of 5160.

My first attempt at a knife was a poor knock off of the straight handled battle mistress (I ground off the talon hole guard later).

It is very interesting to see your earlier pieces. Especially those with Hartsfield and Busse/Swamprat influence.

Custom knife buying/using/collecting generates life long friendships. Hopefully those who buy these can enjoy them, and make their own memories and friendships with them. I have certain established valuable friendships through them.
