Re: Tired!

Bill, you have no idea on how grateful I am that you manage to work one in for me with the workload you have- The front scale on my Latama looks just the way I had pictured, very well done. I couldn't be more pleased, Thanks again -

Re: Outstanding repair work -

Highspeed steel, let me clarify. The two knives I mentioned when starting the thread, were both bought used. One from the forum and the other from AAPK. I will admit, I was a bit disappointed in each due to each being described as very clean and in excellent condition. Both sellers were a little off ...

Outstanding repair work -

This is just my comments on two of my knives that Bill Deshivs has worked on. Awhile back, I had bought a black horn Latama, but when I got it,
I discovered the blade was extremely tight along with almost impossible to release. I had sent it to Walt at Latama, it went to Bill and now works as it ...

Re: Bark River Knives Bravo 1

I've bought at least ten different Bark Rivers over the years, and they are very well made. Too bad the owner went over to the dark side, but
DLT Trading carries a super good selection- I had a collection of the Fox River series for years and you can't hurt them; they are tough and capable knives ...

Bark River, Fox River--

Before you keep on scrolling, please read what I have - And yes, I know all about Bark River closing. I read the entire article and what I am selling was not listed. I have a Fox River, CPM 3V, which along with the Fox Rivers, was not on the list of affected knives. Although I'll never be out in the ...

Re: Knife Comparison

It seems a little hard to try and guess how old these might be because no way of knowing how long the original buyer has had them. They may have been in a previous collection for years. You all know how thus is, one day you look at one and decide you can part with it. Or there is a need for cash ...

Re: Arizonas series of auto doctors knives

It was too dangerous, I sent it back before it sent me to the ER. I did call Arizona knives and talked to Andrew, to ask if I picked out another four numbers to check, would it be possible to find one that works normally. He has helped in the past and said certainly, no problem - I keep thinking ...

Re: Counterfeit LEVERLETTO!!!

I had the black handled one simply marked "Colt" on the blade. Opened ok and sort of a clever design to unlatch the blade but aside from that not a real keeper.
