I've been on a custom knife kick lately and I really like the gene ingram knives. Seeing he dosent make them anymore who else makes knives like he did. I know Charles May and Ken Honeycutt do. I've tried Charles may and haven't been able to get in touch with him and Ken Honeycutt has a wait period of dosent know how long. Any other makers make knives like he did or willing to make me a knife like his?

Ken and Charles are both great and worth the wait.

A few other makers I really like at that price point:

Erickson Knife Works
Wayne Walker Custom Knives
David Winston
TK Steingass
Lucas Forge
Gentry Custom Knives
Little Wolf Ironworks

I started a thread should see plenty of options in there

In the interim, check out Doziers on the AG Russell website. They are hard to beat for a working knife.

I got into looking for local made knives, ended up with some really nice quality blades.

The Menefee brothers out of Oklahoma both make good ones with great reputations.

I think it's call lil dumpling that he makes i wouldn't mind getting from him. I emailed him and never hear back from him. I've tried multiple different maker and it seems to be a common tread at least it is for me.
