I guess this is my latest "fixed blade"

Wicked looking, Dog, and stamped South Africa for authenticity! Cold Steel strikes again!

Thanks M&M ... You said it; Cold Steel strikes again!

Excellent piece of Cold Steel TopDog!

That's a real pretty skinner, Garry, looks solid as a tank too!
I like the slick bright orange covers as well!
Very cool, buddy!

Thank you very much Marco. I think it is a classic. It would be perfect if the bolster were not made of brass.

Nice Q.S. One of (maybe my favorite) the top Schrade F.B. for me.

Custom neck knife from Rich Green out of Tucson.

I appreciate your observations, TMK and T-dog.

Very cool, Dog, I couldn't tell it's made from a file until I saw the close-ups!
Certainly not your usual neck-knife!

David, I think your knife is a beauty, a show stopper.

Beautiful knife, delicious bbq

Are these still being made? I couldn't find anything on the maker online, but that looks to be just the right size for my use. Is that a chisel or blunt/pry tip?

Cody, it has a chisel tip, and it is a very strong/stout neck knife. I am not sure if Rich Green is still making these. He was a two-time contestant on Forged in Fire. In early 2015 he was contacted by the History Channel to be on the premier episode of Forged in Fire. he returned for the third season of the show as a contestant on the “fan favorites” episode.

Here is the maker's info:

Thanks M&M ... I bought it at the maker's house after buying a full size fixed blade from him. He just showed it to me as an example of some of his work, it was his own knife and I had to have it .... (like soooo many other knives ... ) and he was kind enough to sell it too me.

I reccon' you is right there M&M, yes sir

Got in this Beretta fixed blade made in Japan, I believe by Master Hattori. A Bob Loveless design with stag handles, full tapered tang construction and a nice red liner.

That’s a beautiful knife DM11.
GSP that is an interesting file knife.
Garry, I hear you on the brass bolsters. What a pain in the neck. It’s beautiful knife nonetheless.

Good to see it arrived and is in your hands. He does high quality work.

Mark, You have a fine looking and quality make FB. I am especially impressed with the palm swells in the handle and tapered tang. Excellence all the way.

Thanks Garry, that is a nice touch. I’ve found that there isn’t a knife designed by Bob Loveless that I don’t like.
