Donnie’s been tinkering around putting together an occasional knife and this is his latest. Great looking combination of Damascus and Buffalo Horn. This Facebook Twitter Google+ LinkedIn

Cold Weather and Contests
It’s warmed up to -24F already this morning. That figures out to about $.65 – .70 an hour to heat the house. It had been down to -26 when I put the coffee on around 5AM. I just got back from sending out the mail and it actually felt pretty decent outside compared to yesterday. Yesterday we had…
A quick look at the Q-Tac 3L
More knives continue to show up from Queen and a recent arrival of note is the new version of the Q-Tac 3L. While I haven’t had a lot of time to use it and really make a serious analysis, a couple of things stood out that are worth mention. Here’s the specs:Blade Length: 3 3/4″ Back…
Queen City #19 EZ Open Trapper and more….
I just finished uploading 40+ knives that came in today from GEC and Queen. The GEC’s included the Cocobolo and Osage Orange Lockbacks and they’re still coming!!! The Elk came and went in the blink of an eye. The Queens included the new Queen City Easy Open ‘Razor’ Trapper in bone and stag. The Bone…
Sorry, No Viper’s in Percheron Bone
I’ve had a phone call and 2 emails this AM asking if I had or would be getting any of the Percheron Bone 47 Vipers. Sorry, no. Evidently this was a short run handle material. This is the first I’ve even heard of this one. This Facebook Twitter Google+ LinkedIn
Limited Run of #21 Keystone Muskrats!
I’ve been really impressed with the releases from Queen already this year and the response to them at the recent show reflected that as well. Their catalogued knives have looked great with some nice pieces yet to be released. The Baby Sunfish in the Keystone quarterly release series was outstanding. And the short run ‘suprises’…
Gun/Knife Show wrap up
Just came off from one of the slower shows I’ve attended in a while. While I sold a few knives, the shooting sports were the dominant interests of most attendees. Lots of ‘tire kickers’ but not much cash crossing the tables. A common complaint are the heating costs everyone is suffering through this winter and…

Show in Fergus Falls, MN this weekend!
Totally slipped my mind to put up a reminder. There’s a gun and knife show in Fergus Falls, MN at the National Guard Armory this weekend. The show opens at 9:00AM both Friday and Saturday so if you’re in the area, try to swing by. I’ll have a few knives with me and I’ll also…
Ivory Ban!!
If you’ve been watching the news you probably missed it because it seems like this has kind of flown in under the radar. But the Prez is putting together a new ban on Ivory that promises to be much more restrictive than what we’ve seen in the past. This is going to have serious implications for…
