At 8 3/4" this hunter is as close as I can come, so far, to matching Mr Loveless Drop Hunter. It has 440C blade, 416 guard, amboyna burl handles with red liners. It comes with a hand made leather sheath. $200 Thanks for looking Steve

This started out as Loveless style drop hunter but with the sculpted handles I am not sure it still qualifies. Anyways it feels great in the hand. 8 3/4" long overall with a 4" blade. The blade is 440C, the guard is 416 and the handles are stabilized amboyna burl with pretty red liners to set...

I seem to be going through a Loveless period in my knifemaking. Here is another for your consideration. A Riverside Dagger 9 1/2" overall with a 5" blade of 440C. The guard is 416 and the handle slabs are mammoth ivory. The tang is tapered and the red liners are there for contrast. $400 Please...

There are some knives that you finish and can't wait to sell, then there are the ones that you would love to find some excuse to hang on to. This is one I would hang onto if I could. Overall the knife is 12 1/4" long, the blade 6 3/4". The blade is mirror polished 440C with a full tapered...

Not sure why but this one makes me think of a Kings Dagger. Wonderful Matt Walker damascus for the blade guard and butt cap. I know this wood as buttonwood, but since I can't find anything called buttonwood I expect it has another name. Very tight very yellow grain, smells really nice when you...

This one has a history. It was made to order for a true gentleman from Texas. I had all sorts of problems finishing it, it simply did not want to come together. I finally got to the point where I could talk to the collector and let him know it was almost finished. I ended up talking to his...

Matt Walker made the damascus for this 8" dagger with damascus bolsters and colourful mammoth ivory handle slabs. The tang is fully tapered and the sheath is hand made all leather construction. If you would like more pictures please let me know. $400 Thanks for looking Steve Vanderkolff

This hunter is destined for the far North. Mr Walker supplied the damascus, which was once again amazing to grind with a pattern sharp as anything I have seen. Overall length is 8 1/2" with a 4 inch blade. The guard is damascus and the handle slabs are walrus from the north supplied by the...

This is my first attempt with a chunk of OOsik. I wasn't sure if this style would work but I think it turned out ok. What do you think? 17 1/2" overall, the blade is 10 1/2" 440C, the guard,bolster whatever you call that is damascus and of course the business end of the Oosik. Let me know...

This started out as a left over piece of damascus that was simply too big to discard, but the shape of it was going to be a challenge. Here is what I ended up with. It is the dart. 7" of Matt Walker damascus, hollow ground with a 6 inch wheel. the edges of the handle are all file worked and the...

Nice knife. I really like the sheath work too. Steve

This is the last of the knives ready for the Canadian Knifemakers guild show next weekend March 9 10. This one fought me all the way but was finally completed. The knife is 14" long overall with a 9 inch blade made from more of the wonderful damascus from Matt Walker. The guard and ferrule...

What will it cost me for a leather sewing machine that work all the time every time. I have a Tippmann Boss which is tempermental. I never have been able to get it to work on every stich every time I use it. I only make sheaths when I have to so maybe 30 a year and I have neither the time nor...

I am pretty sure the groove cut down the middle of the blade is called a fuller. I have a 6 inch fuller down the middle of the latest dagger I am in the process of making. Now that I have the fuller milled out how do you go about sanding the bottom of the fuller so it looks as clean as the rest...

First I need to thank Mr Don Hanson for providing the inspiration for the Bonnie Bowie. I have a long way to go before anyone mistakes my work for his but he has presented a wonderful inspiration for those of us still learning to aspire to. The Bonnie Bowie is 14" from tip to tail with 440C...

This little beauty is on its way to take part in a Native Amercan Sundance ritual. It is 5 1/2" of Matt Walker damascus with Mammoth ivory overlays. Let me know what you think please. Thanks Steve

Finished just before Christmas, this 14 3/4" bowie has a 440C blade 416 oval guard and ferrule. The handle has a frame construction with 416 center and titanium liners. The handle material comes off a large Walrus tusk that was sent to me in payment for a knife. That trade worked out well for...
