    Wheeler custom knife

    A friend had this made for me as a wedding present earlier this year. Ive bitched and moaned about my knives never holding an edge but this is something else.

    The handles carved from antler and measured to fit my hand. It is an absolute pleasure to use. It cut up 3 sika before I even thought about giving it a tune up.
    If anyone else is considering one I could not recommend them enough.

    The service is fantastic too. Contact Steve on Wheeler Sculpting and Knives

    Nice shape. Like a mini Parang (sp).

    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds

    I was lucky to be gifted a Steve Wheeler for my 50th and it just happens to fit me like a well fitted fitty fing. Trouble is I like it so much that I dont take it bush for fear of loosing it
    Mine aint as nice looking as that though Nathan.
