Heres a Lloyd I carry daily. I love his work, and am looking for another (or two).

I also like John Lloyd's knives. Here's one I own

Very nice Steve. I'm on the lookout for one similar. Mine is horn, and I would like a stag that's half as nice as yours!!

Here's a retired EDC that I carried for a couple of years and it only saw light duty. Made my the late Zolan MCcarty, grandfather of Chris English. It is the first custom knife I ever bought and started my passion for fine knives. I've bought and sold many knives, but I will never sell this one.

I really like Bret Dowell's work. I would go with his knife.

Today was spring cleaning (day 1) of my knives.

I started with some of my folders. I took a picture of my Dowell knives. I actually do carry the one in bottom left of the picture. IMO Bret Dowell makes a great knife, as I have said more than once.

Lot's of great knives Rod. Really like the Saddlehorn, middle row third one down. Would be a tough pick from there, all sweet pocket pals.

Absolutely, any of those would be a great every day carry. Very nice!

I acquired another folder from Bret Dowell.

The FI came from the Blade Show this year. The knife is a two blade Gunstock. It is a proto knife for Bret.

The last picture shows the new knife with my Dowell EDC.

Very, very nice, Rod. The handle looks outstanding! Do you have a pic with the blade open, too? Bret makes a great knife.
