i am looking for a big damascus knife with a stag handle. it is my birthday in june and i want to find something for my parents to buy me. does anyone know of a blade smith that could make me one.

whatever you do, do not look on the st judes auction list. There is nothing to see there... just kidding. There is a very nice one, I just didn't want you bidding it out of my price range. But since it's your birthday... I won't drive the bid up too much if you really want it.

Post this on the Knife Makers Forum as well.  Lots of guys capable of making what your looking for there.
