Those are really nice knives, I think Tops is a great manufacturer but I think one of their best knives is the Tracker Scout, Check it out.

I've used this knife before and I think it is Excellent!

But besides that one you may have missed this total section on that site, it seems they almost try to hide it.

I like that tracker scout. Someone somewhere asked about small fixed blades for or in kits and I have been looking for small fixed under 6" for a while too. I have a review i found that I can post later, but it looks old and some of the links appear old and broken.

You should check out the A.G.Russell Woodswalker knife.It is inexspensive at $19.95 plus shipping.The knife is carried in a leather sheath that wears like a wallet.Kydex sheaths are available with knife for $24.95.Check it out at http://www.agrussell.com

I like Running Dog ... but nojoy on an email or catalog. Check out his Little Pup.

I also liked a knife from River Rat Knife Co., but once agian they have seemed to have disappeared.

Take a look at Anza Knives. Their home page is:

http://www.anzaknives.com/

The T-1 is a nice, small blade. They have others in the same size range. I'm not sure which model I have, but it's about 6" long overall. It carries nicely in a leather pouch sheath, which I usually just drop in a pocket.

My wife likes it, too, as a paring knife. I had to get a bunch of new Victorinox parers & other kitchen utility blades (thus, filling the knife block), in order to recover my Anza from the kitchen.

The blades are carbon steel, if that makes a difference.

Hmmmmmmm ...

I like the TW, but I can't believe it's only 4" overall

Not sure I've handled a TW (stands for "teeny weeny"), but I don't doubt the 4" length. Mine is along the lines of the #4, at around 6" overall. It only cost around $20 when I got it several years back. The product line has changed somewhat in the intervening years.

The TW intrigued me, but 4" is just too small for my hands. The 6" on the one I have is about the minimum for me, and I find an OAL of 7" works better.

Anza knives aren't particularly pretty, but they're tough, sharp, & a good value.

has anyone heard of or knowwhat happened to the "River Rat Knife Co." ????

Hey paul,Er .... huh? "Bump" what? I don't get it. What did I miss?

Anyway ... the URL you posted contains a Session ID that won't work for others to link with.

Anybody who wants to see it can try http://www.toolshop.de/e/shop/ instead. Then, do a Quick Search for "Puma Rattler".

It sure is a pretty knife! Thanks, Paul.

Stay safe,

Found the knife maker that made the River Rat

http://www.larryrameyknives.homestead.com/products.html

for what it's worth

I like a small fixed blade for a number of purposes. Gene Ingram makes some nice designs in small blades (from 1.5" up). Here is my Ingram family, the 2 small Pocket models, one with micarta scales and the other naked are real nice for a kit or pocket. The others range up to 4.5". His starting prices are in the $120 range so a very nicely made custom can be had for a very good value.



Ingram is also making a new model that is a bit bigger called an SLK. I have one on order. It will look like this:

With a display case like that, who the hell cares about the knives!

I think that this CRKT Fixed Falcon is a bit bigger than what you have in mind (6 inches total length). I Still have this one available for trade. PM me if interested.

What knives?

I don't see a knife "case" in the photo. I do, however, see a rack.

Gotta love the Martian camouflage.

yeah

I hear the custom knife makers get all the girls, right after the NASCAR Drivers.

Now I know which booths you two will be circling at any given convention.
