Just finished up my new website! Looking for feedback from fellow Texans who know their way around a hunt. www.hardinsteel.com

It all looks good to me knives and web site.

I guess I'll probably never own a custom knife because of the price but still, good looking knives.

Rick, thanks for the compliment. What is the price range you look for in a knife?

I have a bunch of Shrade/Old Timmer/Uncle Henry so all my knives cost considerably less than $60. (You didn't ask this but) I'm also not a fan of stainless I have a lot of trouble sharpening SS. Any knife I buy will most likely be used in the field so I don't buy pretty knives either. But I appreciate the skill/ craftsmanship it takes to make a nice knife.

We have a lot of talented knife makers on here, my favorites are almost always STICs, made from things like files and springs they just seem more like tools than "instruments".

Like many others, I don't have the available cash for a really nice custom knives, but the ones you have on your web-site are really beautiful. Great work.

We must all be riding in the same cash boat,
but your custom knives are just like a painting or sculpture...

Works of Art!

I wish every hunter could at least try a custom knife.
I bought a Dozier knife ten years ago and gave away all of
my other knives because I knew they wouldn't see any more
action in my lifetime. Everyone should have a good sharpener too.
