Form Matches Function with these Custom-Made Blades

There is no law that says your burly bushcrafting custom outdoor knife can’t look good. What follows is irrefutable evidence of that. These knives look equally good at home, in a tree stand, at a remote camp site, or in a suit.

Sit back and bask in the glory that is this photo gallery from Jim Cooper of SharpByCoop. Information on how to contact the makers is included in the Specs box on each page.
