Ever since this forum was created I really have enjoyed looking at the different work some of you do. I don't build knives but I love the look and feel of a well crafted piece of steel. One of the many talented knife makers that I love looking at pictures of their work is Mr. Lin Rhea. Ever since seeing his work I knew I would love to have a knife of his some day. Well while browsing the internet looking at web pages of all different knives I stumbled across on of Lin's hunters for sale. I bought it and it is awesome. Everything I thought it would be. It is stamped with the J.S. symbol so I am not sure when Lin made it but it will be a perfect companion with me this deer season.

Golly! Why would anyone ever sell that? I agree with you, Lin's knives are fantastic!!
That's a sweet knife, nice score!
If'n I ever own A Lin Rhea knife it will be My ancestor's sellin it not Me. Great find!
Tim,
When someone like you invests in a handmade knife you are investing in the maker too. I thank you for your confidence in my work and I'm pleased it found a home with a fellow tradgang member. I look forward to hearing how it performs for you. Lin
Nice score. A true custom knife made by a Trad Gang member and a MS to boot.
Great catch!!!! Beautiful!
Wow Tim, great score on that one! Sheep horn handle scales too!
Shrew Bows, and a Lin Rhea knife too, your living large Mr.
Until hunting season I guess you will have to be satisified cutting your venison steaks with that beauty!
