Looking to get a fighter made by a tar heel builder.

Basic outline:
6”blade, full tang,(I have a few blade shapes I would like to mimic)
154,A2,CPM…
Micarta scales
I would like a guard.
Leather sheath

Let me know if you’ve had something made or know of a local maker.

Thanks!

I have 2 and I'm waiting for him to start a 3rd for me...you won't be disappointed....I want to get a knife built by @RR and other makers on CFF to have a display of all.....In time....In time! I do not own knives without a double hilt so there is that to consider. I have around 17 or so Randalls from the smallest to the largest and I like to compare our folks to those knives....

What style of knifes do you have made?
I have always wanted a Randall, but the wait is crazy right now.

Hopefully I can get a Walter Brend clone:9F174A4E-5D12-4EB0-8EA7-0FE1C8DC5A1B.jpeg41F93E93-9465-4C93-82C7-61894310F1CC.jpeg

Please, don't get a clone.....of anything....always get the yardstick the product is measured by...Remember if it pinches you today, in 6 months you won't even remember. If you want a Randall or Brend...get yourself one...they are readily available...pay up and enjoy...I have a big picture in my Gun Room of me and Bo Randall together with him giving me my First Randall.

Clone*
I don’t want an exact replica, I have 3 separate knives I want to combine.
I love the blade on the Brend but want a different handle. Maybe some red liners as well.
I had a local Carolina building start one, but he had some health issues and backed out.
Would like a Kydex sheath to go with a leather one as well

Worked on cars together. Watched him do knife stuff. But not shot together yet. He owns, seen the safe and what's inside. But not sure how 'into guns' he is.

He doesn’t have to be that big into guns to enjoy this place

Let me run it by the shop boss. We may have one ready to go. If not, I can likely have it made to your specs in 3 weeks.
 
I just looked in our stock. This is the closest to your specs we have. The handle is hardwood.

If you prefer something more specific, hit me up and I'll get you a quote.

How soon are you wanting a knife? Here are some of my past full tang knives. I’ve got four or five in queue- so my shop is full until about March - April.
Good luck - there are several outstanding builders on this site.

Have you done any with a guard?

I need to get some pics. But @RR made me a nice heavy full tang knife with G10 scales.
 
Carothers performance knives, G.L. Drew knives, and Valhalla combat tactical knives are all from nc.

I own knives from all 3, and would depend my life on any of them.... the cpm 3v with delta heat treatment from Nate (Carothers) is amazing. Absolutely bomb proof.
