Daniel Winkler/Karen Shook – Friction Folder

$1,900.00

● File-made blade with hammer finish.
● Gorgeous copper bolsters, double-ended. Flat-out stupendous!.
● Finely-smithed detail work on the tab and curly finial. Fileworked spine.
● Some of the prettiest burl-wood I’ve ever seen on these four-pinned scales.
● The component fit between the elements of this knife is beyond superb.
● Karen Shook sheaths have to be seen to be believed. Probably as much work in this sheath as in the knife. What a treat for the custom collector!

Product Description

I first became interested in these “primitive-style” pieces of Daniel Winkler & Karen Shook, because I wanted to know: Why are people paying so much for these knives?! What’s all the hubbub about?! Aren’t they just cute little primitive-looking showpieces? Ah, well, four Winkler/Shook knives later, I can say I get it. Oh, boy, do I get it! Be warned – after getting your hands on a Winkler, you may never look at custom knives the same way again: the expert fit contrasting beautifully with the primitive style, the balance of these knives in the hand, the heft and the density! Nothing short of remarkable. Just what custom knifemaking and collecting is all about.

And what better than this for a neck-worn carry? Nothing better, that’s what!
