Hi,
I am fairly new to the custom knife scene, and being a Brit. currently posted in China have found the internet a god send.
I have been completely bowled over by just how many fantastic knives are out there, especially in the States and Canada.
In fact it can be quite a daunting experience trying to decide what to buy, and where to stop.
Fortunately I came across Les Robertson at an early stage who has been supremely helpful and extremely informative.
After discussing it with him I am initally focusing on Forged Bowies, with a list of makers, based on reputation and examples of their work (with one or two exceptions based on pure lust!) . But even with this criteria the choice is vast and funds limited.
So with so much at your doorstep, how do you guys decide what your going to collect and spend the hard earned on?
All the Best,
Stephen
