Show Us Your Traditional Customs!

[FSUwelder1212]

Oh my! Not sure how I forgot this one! An amber stag trapper from Alan Davis. The whole knife is beautiful but the filework is just spectacular and makes it for me. I didn’t have any pics on my phone so hopefully Alan doesn’t mind if I use one of his.

My small, but rapidly growing, collection of traditional customs.

The fixed in this pic is a Larry Rosi. The other three from top to bottom are a John Lloyd stag “Moonshiner”, a John Lloyd amber stag Zulu, and a John Lloyd amber stag dogleg.

Then there is my latest, a python canvas micarta Zulu from Andy Fannin. I love it so much I am already on his books for 2 more.

I am missing one here, a John Lloyd Zulu in barbed wire micarta. I Currently have some on the books from Jim Dunlap, Chris Taylor, Jeffery Mitchell, Andy Fannin, and Larry Rosi.

That Rosi is a standout. I'm partial to John Lloyd and you have some really nice examples. If you get the time I'd like to see the barbed wire zulu. Thanks for the post.

John Lloyd Bose pattern slim line I think this is based off a Catt

Below is a John Lloyd big spear point stag jack knife I think it's 4.5" or 4-5/8"

This one below is a medium size Don Hanson trapper by John Lloyd

Here's those two trappers together

And here together with two additional knives,second from left the " Carolina Toothpick" ,a George Herron Gent tribute ( firehose micarta),and all the way to the right the " Moonshiner" in copper layered carbon fiber. These two are John's own designs

Doesn't get much better then those, Vince!
Here's my John Lloyd Trapper that I'll post here too. It's got a lot of mileage on this forum. CPM-154 blade, super stag and 4". In my pocket almost every day.

@VCM3 Vince, Do you know if John has a pattern name for this one, other than Trapper?

Whatever it is, I want one just like it.

Here's a hunter by the late Skip Miller, I can't remember the steel but it sure took a high polish, hard to photograph. Ironwood handle. Preston

I posted this in the Jim Dunlap thread, but I think it deserves a place here as well. This is my beautiful Gent's knife in micarta that Jim made for me in 2014. I requested a custom shield. Jim was a pleasure to work with and I absolutely love this knife.
