This one is mine, from the recent AKA Show in Little Rock, AR. I've admired John Perry's knives since I met him at BLADE in 2003. I also love a nice simple gent's folder for all the time carry. This knife features well-stabilized mammoth ivory scales with nice bark. I make a point of not...

David Lisch is popping up on a lot of folks' radar these days, and rightly so. I was very pleased to shoot this example for friend and fellow collector, Jon Klein.Flying dragons abound in this unique damascus steel. It's a large knife too. The blade is 10 inches with a 5.5 inch primo (really...

This beautiful and very BIG blade with its excellent leather carry system is from the collection of Ryan and Mary Hays. I met Ryan recently at Jerry Fisk's annual Microshow where Ryan whupped me in the cutting competition. Naturally we were talking choppers. He told me about this one and then...

This thread features knife portraits I made as official show photographer - now my 4th year in that role. I've learned a lot and been able to advance my craft because the PKA took a chance on me when Terrill Hoffman, friend and superb knife photographer who'd served them well for years decided...

This image is supposed to feature the engraver's work so if you don't get that from it visually, let me know. To be fair and honest, this is a situation where the engraver should get top billing, at least as regards the visual representation of the finished knife. I may have listed the maker...

This project won 'Best Collaboration' this year at BLADE Show. To commemorate the success I made a large poster image and it sure looks good up on the wall!

I agree with you guys. My sentiments exactly. Photographing them was a real trip.
