Living on ranch property, there isn’t a day that I go outside without a knife in my pocket or on my side. Can someone share what makes the Chris Reeve knifes expensive. Thanks

Good Question... Similar to why a Cadillac is more expensive then a Chevy or why a Brand name drug is more expensive than a generic drug....Living on ranch property, there isn’t a day that I go outside without a knife in my pocket or on my side.

I think the maroon one is James Hetfield's "Voodoo Priest" or something like that.
Way to gay it upThe correct meteorological term is "nipplely."
I compare it closer to the chrome plated and engraved 1911 you carry on your hip to church on Sunday. It'll get the job done, but you rue having to wipe the fingerprints off of it later. It's a bling thing. You're probably not going to do any serious work with it.Good Question...

I've been in the custom knife game for 20+ years. Higher prices start with high end materials. Titanium frames and surgical steel. But it's mostly supply and demand. I went through the Reeves phase in the beginning. They were a smaller shop then with limited production. Got both NICA Sebenza Tantos because they were limited and CRK said they wouldn't make any more tanto blades. Well the tanto blade is now a regular.Living on ranch property, there isn’t a day that I go outside without a knife in my pocket or on my side.

The attention to detail on those handles and the amount of milling it would take...that's damn sexy. I have made handles, internal components, clips and blades for customers who make knives like this; the amount of work isn't small and tooling to get it right isn't cheap. Looking at the small internal radiuses on the handles and the blades tell you everything you need to know. Add to that the fact that there aren't but a handful of blade grinders left who actually know how to grind a blade to the correct tolerances for fit and function. Beautiful work.I compare it closer to the chrome plated and engraved 1911 you carry on your hip to church on Sunday.

I try to stick with one man shops these days.

Your education is lacking.
Why does cas6969 carry seven knives?
I have a little leather pocket sheath and I will often carry these two in my back pocket at work.
I always have a medium-larger folder clipped in my front pocket. And a small single blade trapper down in my pocket. Sometimes I will carry another more "weapon" type knife concealed, sometimes because of where I'm going, but usually just for fun. I have a Cold Steel Ti-Lite stiletto that at some point took up permanent residence in my work coat right pocket. A Lenox utility knife did the same at some point in the left pocket.
So I'm at work one day and it hit me.... "Oh wait.. am I really carrying seven knives? Oh good lord."
(that's also when it hit me that at that moment I had four flashlights on me as well. What an ass.)
