Ken Nelson Report post Posted January 28, 2018 I would suggest you contact Clay Miller, or Terry Knipshield. I would be interested in one. I have been hearing a lot of good things about Terry's knives. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ken Nelson Report post Posted January 31, 2018 (edited) Looks to me like a mini dagger (A type of knife). I had Clay Miller build me an oversized diamond awl a few years ago. He built it to my specs and did a good job on it but I ordered the handle too big. My fault not Clay's. It does a good job though . I have a friend in Montana, Brett Bronson, that builds several kinds of knives, you might contact him and see if he would like to take a run at it. I might buy one! His phone # is 406-293-2032. He does nice work and tell him I sent you. HTH Ken Edited January 31, 2018 by Ken Nelson Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Webicons Report post Posted January 31, 2018 (edited) Nash Anonymous makes phenomenal awls. I purchased a 1.9mm euro flat awl from him. I was so impressed that I placed another order for a longer one a week later. He offers both flat and diamond awl blades and had made a monster diamond awl for a saddle maker. Prices are reasonable. Easiest way to contact him would be through Instagram. Edited January 31, 2018 by Webicons Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
