the store
Hello JMS,
Did he have any folders at his store? I'm down in Escondido so maybe I'll go check it out some time.
Thanks!
Raymond

Good to know about that store in Julian. My gf was been wanting a purple folder for sometime now, and I'd prefer to find one in person just so she knows what she is getting and what aspects she likes about them.
Yeah, it seems like North County gets smaller and smaller each year which is strange because it gets bigger and bigger each year too.
Have you ever gone to the gun show at Del Mar? I've always wondered if they had any good knife/razor deals there...

Here's my first foray into custom blades (well...my second really because I already have one that I got for a Christmas exchange, he made me one and I made him one)

Thats nice one Alex.
Can you tell us about the materials used to create this knife?
Oh, and did you get my PM? I am assuming not as you haven't replied.

I'm not sure what that is and Google didn't help me out much either. But it's made by a guy in Thailand.
