Handmade knife qustion

Post by XxBubbaXx »

Anyone ever heard of Ron Dragoo? I have an opportunity to purchase a handmade knife with German Silver Bolsters and Mammoth Tusk Ivory handles he made that's very nice but I cant find any information on him.
Hopefully this isnt one of those "dumb questions" but hey I'm new at this!

quick search turned up his native american name red running buck. has a knife on ebay, very nice pattern welded drop point w mammoth ivory. if you like the knife and it's well constructed go for it. if he ain't famous now maybe someday he will. lots of quality out there with lesser known artisans.

Very cool, Thanks for responding! Man i googled and asked and MSN searched everywhere, i looked on ebay even and couldnt find one thing on him. The knife i'm looking at is very well crafted from what my untrained eye can see so i think i'll but it.

Thanks for the help!
