I have this knife I like but it's too small for my taste. Its a nice combination of brass, damascus and bison horn and I'd like one like it but bigger.

No one? Hell, if someone can recommend a book or a source of information on making folding knives, I'll even take that.

I wouldn't mind spending a few hundred. I bought custom made hunting knives before and they cost me about 200 each

I want to see if you guys could offer me anything before I'd go diving deep online for information on making a knife. I use to use cnc(s?) lathes and welders a lot so I thought maybe I could do it if I wanted but, I'd rather buy it from someone whos experienced in making folding knives. I've tried to search them up but, I haven't found anything.

You have to keep in mind though that custom folding knives are going to be more expensive than custom fixed blade knives due to the added complexity.

A simple slipjoint or friction lock isn't going to be as expensive as a modern locking folder with a bunch of different tiny parts to work with, but it'll still cost more than a similar fixed blade.


Check websites Arizona Custom Knives for custom makers.

My go-to custom maker is J.W. Bensinger. He normally deals in fixed blades, but he's done a few folders.

Thanks for the information anon. And yeah I'd glady pay 300+ to have a high quality folding knife made, especially in the spanish navajo style.

And these are the fix blades I mentioned. They use to be jeweled but, they've been used a lot and its faded away.

That's a Corsican razora (?), more or less. There are a whole lot of different sizes and styles of them made, most of them probably cheaper than commissioning a custom.
