I love Nick’s boots I just ordered a pair for my cargo trailer to stealth camper conversion project. You’re an inspiration honey. 💃🏾👏🏾💯

from someone that wears a boot knife all the time, it looks really cool but cold in the winter snow and a little too long to be comfortable. Mine has a leather sheath and I like to keep my knife around 4-5 inches for comfort. It's basically a skinning knife for me, but that's what I like. You still did a great job, it looks really cool

As a maker, and a knifemaker, I am doubly impressed!

Didn't quite know what you were going with at first. But the execution is wonderful. You've grown so far as an artist in the few years I've been watching you.

Jimmy.... local legend states that he has long been know as "The band saw wizard".
