This is just a bit of click bait, but I bet it will spur a bunch of google searches for information on knife makers that will be new to all of us.

So, name 10 knife legends. No rules, your opinion. Duplicates are fine, don't worry about that. No right, no wrong, nor disputing.

Here are mine:

William Scagel
Bo Randall
Bob Loveless
Rudy Ruana
Jimmy Lile
Harry Morseth
Frank Richtig
Buster Warenski
George Herron
Earnest Warther

I can't remember his first name....maybe Harold, Harold Lafler. He was a Randall Shop employee for many, many years. When he retired he made knives and some pretty nice ones. I've owned several. They are not that easy to get.
One of the neatest knives he made was a copy in miniature of the WWII US M3 fighting knife. I missed an opportunity to buy one at Blade several years ago. Still regret it. They were about 7 or 8" in length.
Anyway I think he should be on the list somewhere.
