I like his work.......been keepin an eye on his sight for a while now but he hasnt added any dirks in a long time.

No kidding. I've been wanting a Tinker dirk for a loooong time. I'd also like a Kirby spool-handled dirk.

I wanted a baskethilt that would fit my hand. So I sent Erik a measurement. Gus' blades are awesome, I've owned three,
And Irish Bastard, English Bastard and this one. Unfortunately I
sold the other two Bastards to get this baskethilt
Anyway, here is the result of a baskethilt custom made, fits like a glove.
And believe me I saved my nickles and dimes-literally for several years.
I'm not a rich man!

That's a pretty piece.

I've been lusting after a custom "beak-nosed ribbon-hilt" from Kirby for a while.

I didnt see a review from you on Sword forum about this one, but I see you like it. It really does look like it fits like a glove. I totally understand about the rolling nickles and dimes thing.......I aint rich niether...

Never heard of him....guess I'll hafta educate myself a little more...

EDIT: I see what you mean. I did run across his site a while ago but forgot his name. He does do some reall nice work.

Sooooooo many blades...so little money <sigh>
