I know after talking to some the market is just not there. You might see some hobbyist sell a few they made but most seem to prefer a cool taticool looking knife vs a handmade one that cost more.What happened to them, they didn't die out (well some might have) 10 years ago u used to see two or three at every gun show, now your lucky to see one

That's true. Price is also a big factor. Your grandfather would have paid a premium for a good knife that would last him a lifetime. Now, people want cheap (mostly). And mass produced=cheap. There is little appreciation for a very well made tool aby longer.
Ive done some work in prgress threads in the past. Kind of a follow along as I make a knife. Got a new project im getting material for coming up. Guess it is time to do another.
I did a few and got comfortable with the mill and action fo the, but it suprised me how hard it is to make a folder with eye pleasing design and good feel while still retaining a folder design.When you gonna start doing folders?
