  • John Broughton, Jr.

    The material we have is old and color fading. We ordered this stuff over 25 years ago-per Dad from a place called Indian Ridge-I think it was in Tenn.
    Does anyone know of it or remember it? It out of business from what we can tell.

    It's been a long dry spell, but I finally got one finished.


  • KnifeMaker

    CaptJeff Saylor

    great looking knife Gary!
  • Gary Music

    Thanks Jeff!

    It's forged 52100 which is a little tough to work with but I like it. It has a grind that Ed Fowler calls the "Improved Michael Price" grind, I have since etched it with my name and mark. It's my #10 and thanks go out to Ed Fowler who I learned most of my forging and heat treating techniques from.
  • J. R. Reeves

    T.A.DAVISON

    Stefan - very nice - you keeping it? or going to let it go?

  • KnifeMaker

    Stefan Diedericks

    Todd-
    I'd like to keep her, as with all my knives, but then there's not fun in making knives and not share them with others and where will I keep them all, so I will probably sell her.
  • Gary Music

    Very nice Stefan!
