April 2013 Wanenmacher knives

[Bill Coye]

A few knives from the Wanenmacher Tulsa Arms Show. A couple were finished post-show.

Some of you will recognize one or two of these

The shows are hectic but are the best opportunity to get to know you guys and shake your hand.

Thank you to all that came by the table to say Hello....and THANK YOU! for your support of a local knife maker.

The new stainless N690 I'm using for the Ridgebacks has proven itself to be tough as nails.

I'd like to get one of your bigger knives next!! They are badass.. How do I go about getting a patch?

Lovin mine. Thanks again. What are you calling the necker?

Lovin mine. Thanks again. What are you calling the necker?

Although it is bigger than the "average" necker, I've got some LE friends that carry it as such. A bit of a design flaw being so big - "Gee Bill, not everyone is 6'2".......got it.

That's the knife I carried while in the Afghan.

"Gk1" is that name of the knife. Every base has a letter/number designator. My assigned base in the Phoenix AO/Kabul was Camp Eggers or Gk1.

Do you ever come to any events in the OKC area?

Do you ever come to any events in the OKC area?

Yes sir.

I've been to the Oklahoma Custom Knife Show that's held Norman - didn't make it this year however. Not because of geography, just time.

Can you suggest a show/shows in the OKC metro?

2A Shooting Center in Tulsa has a couple Ridgebacks in the case now. I do know a Sherriffs Deputy from TX was hunting one the other day.

Fort Henry Custom Knives and BladeHQ are my dealers but they're both out.

My focus now is for the Blade Show in Atlanta - It's right around the corner.

Never too busy! Next time.
