I hand forge my knives from top quality, new Cutlery steels. The steel is not recycled or re-purposed. I personally heat treat and test each knife to make sure it will last a lifetime.
The knife I will make for this auction will be similar to this one.

On this style of knife, full tang, I taper the tang to balance the weight of the Knife. This feature ads an element to the knife that is only available on quality knives.

I sincerely hope we can make a difference to help ease the financial burden this illness has caused. Please help and keep the prayers coming.

I am going to bump this in hopes of getting some bids to help a family in need. I will sweeten the deal too. If this knife gets bid up to $200.00 or more I will let the winner get David to do some fancy tooling or customizing on the sheath up to $100.00 cost on my dime.

This is an example of the quality of leather work David does. He won the best Sheath award for it at the Arkansas Custom Knife Show last year.
