So I finally did it and ordered two of the Elk models. One is for me and one is a Christmas present for my dad. After a couple trips to Dave's house I finally decided on wood color and model. I really liked the proskinner, but the elk will be more practical. Dave said it will be a week or so before they are finished, but I can't wait! Also, two weeks ago I went over to check out his knives and you would not believe how beautiful and sharp these things are! Dave is also a wonderful gentlemen to talk to. My handle is going to be red, black, and walnut similar to this one http://www.mccroskeyknives.com/proskin3l.jpg and dads is cocobolo and black.

I have a couple of his knives. They are great knives and you won't be disappointed. I also enjoyed talking to Dave. He was super nice and offered to let me use one of his knives if he didn't have mine done. Heck, he even offered to let me use his rifle for my trip if I needed it.
He did the same with me. He sent a knife home with me for the past 2 weekends for primitive firearm season to try it out. Great guy, beautiful knives that are sharper than any I have ever seen and affordable. What more can one ask for in a hunting knife...lifetime sharpening? Ya that comes with the knife as well.
He needs more info on his site about the steel, thickness, etc...
Looks nice, but would love to know more about them.

Individual knives have specs, all use ATS34 Elk and pro 5/32" according to site
Hmmm - I saw that they were made from 5/32" steel, but didn't catch that the finished blade was 5/32" at the spine. ATS34 is interesting (found it in the about us page finally).
wow I live just down the road from drive past the sign couple times a day thought stopping but the shop never looked openI'll have to look closer next time
wow Im adding a few of those to the list
