I have a new bow on order. I am thinking about having a custom hunting knife made the handle of which would match the riser wood (Bolivian rosewood) on my new bow. This would be the first time I've ever ordered a custom hunting knife. I'd appreciate any recommendations. Thanks..

Go on the Hunting Knives and Crafters Forum.
Many excellent makers posting there and good luck picking one! The boys are really showing some fantastic product.

Look up Doug Campbell. I believe he is on here
Doug also resides in MT
Another vote here for Doug Campbell. I don't have one of his knives, but know he's a top notch fellow to deal with.
It's probable that all those mentioned would make your purchase a pleasure.
