Spencer G Report post Posted November 13, 2007 Kaw, I have been selling knives for a couple years, and know a little bit about them. I have seen quite a few top quality custom and production knives, and have even tried making a couple of my own; but I have never seen anything like that. Totally awesome and unique! Top notch braiding. Well done. Spencer Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Romey Report post Posted November 22, 2007 Yea, do you Kevin? Many people havent seen alot of Kevins work outside of working cowhands but IMHO Kevin is the "worlds greatest unknown braider" Id put him close to that for Saddle making as well. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KAW Report post Posted November 23, 2007 Rayban, 95% of my work is horsegear of all kinds I posted some pics in another post in braiding titled some of my work.
