    Great collection mate...in my opinion big knives should be beaters first and pretty second. I got the Skrama bushknife and I love mine, I bash it plenty and never ever clean the auld fella (character). Yeah, Rambo was also my introduction to the survival game...still a cracking movie after all these years as well...the book is a good'n as well.

    Hey Rob, the skrama is made of 80crv2 steel, mine picked up a chip from something I did. I need to pull mine out and use it. I bought the longer version of your condor parang, round handle (bad) and blade so soft that branches dented it. Condor qc and support is non-existant here. Bought genuine malaysian parangs,much better!

    Wow! I'm sitting here drooling like a Boxer dog! I also love big knives and even made quite a few in my "love Bowie" days. And delighted to hear that you have so many orders! Can't wait for the rest of the collection series. A huge tree fell down here on the park and expose the trunk. The centre of the trunk appears to contain a huge solid core of what I think may be fatwood. Would that be right? I've no idea what species of tree it is, but I'll try to find out. I wish I knew how to send you a pic. There must be a few tons of it lying there!! A knifemaker is always happiest when the orders come rolling in. Enjoy Rob!

    As I was in the Army when First Blood was released, it was like a chapter out of our own movie; observing how many Privates would show up for field exercises with those cheap knock-offs that suddenly flooded the market. At the time, immediately after release of the movie, nobody made a decent replica; and even if they did, it would have been crap; just a Hollywood prop. But the laughs!!!! You just can't imagine the laughs that were generated once the Sergeants got involved. They could create scenarios that not even Mel Brooks or the Pythons could imagine. A young man could have started his own scrap metal business in the aftermath....... LOL!!! Sergeants!!!! Never underestimate their devious creativity during times of boredom! I guess you just had to be there....... :D (on the other hand, some of those monsters you just showed, would have been of great use down in Panama) Four Thumbs Up

      After 50 years of continous business, a spectacle of American freedom ended last Oct. It wasn't political, it was a family business. I always wanted to attend. The event drew 10's of thousands of participants. Not a single mishap. It had been weighing on my mind since I moved to N.C. a 6 hour drive to the event. I didn't know it would end in 2021.
