From Jerry……Texas
Received the piece of artwork yesterday and needless to say it surpassed the pictures two fold. I doubt that it will ever be used in the field as I would probably have an emotional breakdown if I damaged it. This will be a piece of my legacy that will be passed to one of my grandchildren. You are not only a superb knife maker but also consider yourself a knife artist. Thanks again and the Best to You and Yours.
~From... "Mr. J. Law"...Pierson, Iowa~
Who ordered a Model 08 after seeing one of my knives in "Blade" magazine)...Shortly thereafter, he ordered a Model 18. I would like to thank Mr. Law very much for his kind words). Mr. Law wrote: "Hi Bruce: You get an A+ for the knife and an A+ for the sheath, you don¡¯t know how happy I am. The knife came today and I couldn't wait to open the box. I am a big guy and the knife fits my hand perfectly. The balance of the knife, the workmanship and the beauty.... Never have I seen such a prettier sheath, and the knife is outstanding. I would like to order another knife, No. 18, plain polished blade, green Micarta handle and brass. I would like the blade length not over 4 inches if this is possible. I got my knife today in the mail. It's every bit as nice as the other one. I haven't used the 18 yet, but I do get it out to look at it and admire it, such good workmanship. I have been wearing No. 08 on my belt and have had a lot of nice comments about it....I was pleased to have both knives hair shaving sharp. The sheath attracts attention first. What more can I say except that I am going to save up some money. I'm going to send a letter to "Blade" and "Knives Illustrated" telling them how much I like your knives. Keep up the good work. Hang in there. J.D.Law" (Mr. Law recently took ownership of his third knife...a model 32)

Bruce..
The black and orange hunter came today. I am most pleased! I am a knife collector and in my forensic work I know my weapons and skilled craft. This little knife is exquisite. I love the black and orange micarta look as you have it. Your fit and finish is as good as they come. The textured belly of the brass guard is a nice touch. All this and a great sheath, too. I will be back back for more.
~Testimonial from... "D. Trottier, Kelowna B.C."~
Bruce, I have hunted big game all of my life. I am proud to own one one of your knives. It has been wonderful over the years. Many thanks !!
~ From Chris M.....Toledo, Ohio~
Hi Bruce: I have always been a fan of your work. You are truly a craftsman. I have purchased knifes all over the world and yours are right up with all of them!!!
Hi Bruce:I just received the knife and I want to tell you it is very very nice! I really like the purple heart handle, the photo does not do it justice. You can be complemented this knife is a keeper. Thanks again!!
Chris
~From... Julie S. ...Sweetwater, USA~
Hello Bruce, I wanted to let you know we got the knife and might I say it's one of the most beautiful knives we've been privileged to lay our eyes upon...David took one look at it and said "that's too pretty to ever use"...boy, if I haven't heard that line a dozen times before! So, he just keeps collecting knives like a kid in a candy store. Ha Ha
Even my mouth dropped when I saw it (and that don't happen very often). Thanks again! ~ Julie
~ From Chris M. Teledo OH. ~
Hi Bruce. Just got both knives and they are exceptional. The one of a kind is superb.
Thank you again for your excelent craftsmanship. Keep in touch!
~FROM JERRY M.....CARSON CITY NV~
WOW! What a knife! It's a work of art. Tell Maggie her work on the sheath is equal to your work on the knife. You two make a great team. Thanks Bruce for a beautiful knife at a very reasonable price. Jerry.
~ FROM... RICHARD D....OREGON, WI ~ I could put yours beside the very best in fit and finish (nobody polishes better than you and most not even close).
~From "Kirk"...Bismarck, ND.~
Bruce
Got the knife today its a keeper. You did a great job. I have about 15
custom made knives that I bought off people the last few years and your
workmanship is as good if not better than any of them.
~From "John"...Cantonment, Florida.~ I recieved the knife. WOW it is really nice. It took some time to really look at it closely and appreciate the fine detail.
~ From "Chris"...Temperance, Michigan. ~
Hi Bruce:
This is the second knife I have received from you in the purple heart. That wood is really super and your workmanship as always is SUPERB. Thanks again for holding it for me.
~ From "Jerry"...Carson City, NV. ~
Well, Bruce you did it again! Your Model 32 with a black Micarta handle arrived today. The double red spacers and the thin piece of brass is a nice contrast against the black Micarta. The knife looks and feels great. It's a nice size with good balance in the hand. The blade has a mirror finish and is razor sharp. Nice work! Tell Maggie she did a beautiful job on the sheath. Very nice fit and finish. Thanks for making another great knife at a very reasonable price. Jerry.
(Addition)....I went to a gun and knife show at the Reno Hilton yesterday. There were 5 or 6 custom knife makers at the show. None of them had knives that approached the quality of your work. Take care, Jerry.
~From... "Peter "... Palm Desert, CA~
Bruce, the knife arrived today.
It is a beautifully made knife, and I certainly appreciate all the work that went into it.
Thanks again, Peter
~ FROM DARRYL…SASKATOON CANADA~
Hi Bruce:
I wanted to let you know that your knife arrived this AM. What a pleasant surprise, the workmanship and quality was very evident, even more so than I expected. You should be very proud of your work, it really is first class. The sheath is absolutely awesome leatherwork.
~FROM TONY…VANCOUVER B.C.~
I am really pleased with the Tanto knife. It is exactly what I wanted.
The photos, even though they were excellent, did not do your knife justice.
The knife looks so much better up close, and it feels great in my hand.
I Thank you for the beautiful work and the time and love
you put in this knife. I will treasure it always.
~FROM JOSEF…VANCOUVER B.C.~ I received the "Black Beauty" today and it is indeed a "Beauty"! I am amazed by the high level of craftsmanship and how good the knife feels in the hand. All details are meticulously done. Excellent work!
