so I have seen some of Tyler's posts and Space cadet made a recommendation,

Any opinions on who to get to make a knife that you would use but treasure?

Depends what kind of knife you're after, IMHO, as most makers have preferred styles and their own specialty.....I have knives by Will Morrison and Kevin Slattery, and like them both for different reasons.

Tyler's knives do look good from the pictures I have seen of them and by all reports very good knives. Kev Slattery's knives are nice too, as are a lot of other makers.

I have 3 custom knives, one by Wally Bidgood, one by John Foxwell and one from unknown maker that I picked up at a gunshow a long time ago. Funnily enough the one I picked up from the gunshow has become my favourite.

IMO it comes down to a personal choice, if you like the look and feel of a knife, the steel they are using, the blade style and balance from a maker, and the price is right for you then that's the one to go with.

Probably doesn't help you much though.

Andrew I have seen the knives of my dreams but no prices. Should I keep dreaming?

Sorry about that i should have put a warning up so here's one now
If your short on cash or dont want to get in trouble with the misses stay away for the custom beer garden, the gallery, knife makers area, Niroc knifemaking supplies and the gameco web site
You have been warned
