Who makes that?

It's a custom by a knifemaker in Massachusetts. All he does are one offs.
If the state had not cut funding for the mental institutions, this project could never have happened.

Does it come with a complimentary tab of acid?   [cheeky]

Thinking about buying this.





I like the work on the spine and that damascus blade.  

My dad went to a wine tasting this weekend and a local knife maker was there who gave him a good deal on a fixed blade.

Model: 041..second to last.

There are several folders I wouldn't mind having.  I like the fact that most of his knives look like they've been used for years.


Mary..nice!  looks just like my first knife

I won a Buck folding Hunter at the Safety conference.


I have one of those that I found on the windowsill of the first place I rented after moving out of my parent's house 17 years ago.  [thumbsup]

Sure there is, pay in full before knife is sent.  ;) Although I wouldn't buy any thing he makes.

Didn't feel like reading all the wiki stuff.  Why wouldn't you buy an Emerson?

I'm on the waiting list for 2 more......been on it for way too long, should probably check in.

Beautiful knives, I'm just so afraid to use a damascus blade. They're too beautiful to mess up.

I'm more of a simple man, this is one of my favorite blades...


I have this Bob Loveless/Baretta design. I love the bush knives and it's really a great design and fits in the hand well. The convex grind makes for an extremely sharp edge.


Wish they would make an A100 with the wave feature......

Just get a Commander.

I've got the Super cqc 8.  The design is much more applicable to my needs than the Commander.  That blade holds an amazing edge!

I would probably buy one of his customs, but I think Crawford makes a better blade, plus Ernie's affiliation with the SEALS is enough to turn me away.  ;)
