Got this little guy in on a trade today. Really sweet knife and a good dose of medicine for my necker sickness. D2 steel with G10 handles and liners. Feels great in your hand, very light but also rock solid. Larger knife is a TK2 which I think I've posted pics of here before.

That's a wicked piece by Tom. He is such a cool maker and very nice guy in general. I soon will be receiving a folder from him, and have also sent him a quite a few knives for regrinds and sharpening eh.

Possibly the best grinder in the world right now imo.

One of the most active and accommodating that I can think of. Seems he'll put a wheel to pretty much anything and a lot of knife owners are reaping the benefits. :)

Oh yeah. I have a sebenza, whar, Firetac, pikal, smf and two other customs coming from him soon.

Either a regrind or a sharpening. They don't call him an arkinsas grinder monkey for nothing. :D
