Now wait a minute, Biggie, there were girls crawling all over Doug in that cowboy hat of his at the Blade Show....you should have seen it...actually kind of scary.

I guess they teach cowboys how to handle stuff like that out there in the West! They kept sayin' something about him bein' on ' the cuttin' edge' or some such!!!

You cannot go wrong with a Doug blade...I own two myself!!!! and I make knives!!!

There's now a Doug Knife being auctioned for the Chris Surtees family on the PowWow.

gifted trumps good looking....

I have one of Doug's knives.  You won't find better. A wonderful man to deal with I couldn't say enough good about him.

I'VE OWNED ONE FOR ABOUT A YEAR;  CARRY IT OFTEN AND USE IT HARD.  SHARPENS WELL, STAYS SHARP AND FITS MY HAND.  I LOVE THAT KNIFE AND PLAN TO PASS IT DOWN TO MY BOY SOMEDAY.

His ears do stick out a bit from his head, and he oughta know how to handle girls, he's been surrounded by em his whole life!  

I guess he's a pretty good egg, anyway.  I feel lucky to call him "friend", and lucky to have shared more than a couple hunts with him.  I have several of his knives too, and have marveled at his artistry in making them.  

 

 

 

i just bought a bow from him.great guy to deal with.now i must get one of his knives.

Just got word that two knives I had ordered for my son and nephew are almost complete.  Can't wait to see the expression on there faces.

The belt knives are my "Campbell knives". I've known Doug for a Loooooong time.

Someday!!maybe

Witch one would you suggest for skinning a deer?

I bought this knife second hand. Anyone know if this is one of Doug's creations? There are two bear paw prints up near the bolster.

David,
On both of my knives's made by Doug, the insignia, a grizzly print has double circles around it.  In addition, there is only one print, so I do no think it is one of Doug's.

Thanks Walt.

Say what? Doug's also building bows now!?!?! Where is the sign up list???      

Here's mine with a decent shot of Doug's mark.  

Doug made a damascus w/ bighorn sheep handle for me similar to the one he donated to St. Judes a few years back.  My best friend had just killed his first bighorn and I knew he had to have one.  I owed him more than money could buy for his friendship and Doug's knife was the only gift worthy of my feelings.  That knife has since been in two Dall and two Stone sheep.  The only thing I enjoyed as much as presenting that knife was dealing with Doug.

In my opinion..Doug does not charge enough for his knives.  I had him make 3 knives for skinning deer with warthog tusks for handles, from pigs I have killed in Africa. Kept one for myself and gave the other 2 to the guys in my wedding.  I use mine all the time.  Not just for skinning deer.  Pretty much anytime I am in the outdoors...I have it on me.  Great stuff.

Dang it Jon......SHUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUSH!

Yea Jon, I'm getting ready to order one after x-mas. Now you went and did it.     lol You better just give me yours instead.
I'm hoping to put it in a pig in maybe Feb. If I can hit the suckers this time.
