I picked Alan Davis because had the style, price and flexibility I was looking for. There were several others I tried and they were either out of my price range or inflexible with style, materials or changing their templates to a left-handed lock. This probably won't be the last knife I commission from him.

There is another knife maker that I really want a knife from but his work is a bit more expensive. Jake Hoback makes overbuilt knives and his style is something I really like with super-thick Titanium handles and beefy blade stock. I hope to own one of his knives in the future.
