Hello from Texas

I am another new guy from Texas. I have lurked around here for a while now and figured it was time to say hi. I know I will enjoy my time here. This is the first place I check for information on pocket knives.
I live in Central Texas and am retired. I make slip joints and a lock back once in a while. I will test a photo or two also.
Thanks
Craig

Welcome from SC. I think that is about as perty a knife as I have seen. What would you call that? That drop point main with a not so traditional but traditional secondary blade says Premium Mini Reflex-Deflex Trapper to me. Outstanding.

Welcome aboard. Grab a rack, stow your gear and report for duty.
Excellent work. I look forward to seeing more. Do you do work for others? There's always room for one more knife mechanic around here.

Old timey and modern all in one very nice package. A heck of a good looking knife.
Welcome here.
I hope you'll show some more.

Thanks for the welcome everyone.
Jerryd, I do not do any repair work, just work on my own knives.
I will post a few photos in the custom section.
Thanks,
Craig
