Comments: This is a stunning Sambar Stag Semi-skinner by Oregon maker Thad Buchanan. A name that is new to most collectors, Thad caught the eye of inter-frame legend Ron Lake who feels Thad's work is excellent and can only get better.

Not embarrassed about quoting the masters, this knife is in the Loveless style all the way. The workmanship is excellent and the knife itself is a fine value. Get one of your own before this maker takes off and has a five year waiting list! This is someone we should all watch.
