Been a while, been mucking around with framelocks. Damasteel Wharncliffe, Anodised Titanium frame. Assisted by good mates Bruce Barnett Barnett Custom Knives and Mark Sinclair
Custom Cutlery made by Matt Brook Got bitten by the Knife Making bug in 2009. Have completed some training at Tharwa Forge in ACT. Love Aussie desert woods.
Currently making knives with stock removal (favorite steels to work with are CPM154, RWL34, S35VN, 440C and D2) and Forging (favorite forging steel is 1075 and 1084). Like natural and synthetic handle materials. Curly Mini Ritchie is my favorite. Have done some custom orders but prefer to make what I like. If you are looking for something to purchase maybe have a look on Australian Blade Forums. A

Mike from Australian Knife Magazine did a brilliant job of one of the Integrals I had at the Perth Knife Show this year. Amazing shots! W2 Integral, with stabilised Curly Mini Richi and stainless hardware. My best and most favourite yet!

Lite hunter in 1084. Blue G10 with White G10 liner and stainless corbys and lanyard tube. Nice and lite, tang tapered down to almost nothing. Happy with this one!
