A few of my favorites

I thought I would share a few of the customized knives that our own folks here at AAPK have done.

1. Colonial Ranger rehandled by Bob Pickelsimer (Elvis). Not a highly collectable knife, but it belonged to my father. He received it as a Safety Award from where he worked in the mid 1980s. So it has great sentimental value to me, and Bob did it proud with great looking red bone handles.

2. Robeson stockman from Dale Vincent (Orvet). He removed all but the main blade in an old Robeson and put his own brown bone handles on it.

3. Eye Brand copperhead from Caleb Reynolds (Muskrat Man). I won this in one of the weekly auctions we used to have around here each Thursday. He removed the main blade and left the skinner and rehandled in great looking stag.

We sure have a lot of talented guys on this site, the pics sure don't do these justice.

Thanks for looking,
Keith

All these knives look great.

I wonder how many years of repair/custom work these 3 guys have done combined.

At a former employer we made a poster that showed how many years us guys/girls
have been in the field (combined) and it was amazing.
