CURIOUS ABOUT THAT FIRST JEFF MORGAN?

I know some of you varmints have been curious

about that first Jeff Morgan custom knife that I

mentioned in the previous post. Purty darn near

impolite of me not to include a picture of that one.

Let me give you some details prior to the unveiling.

Mr. Legendary Leather had a vintage sharpening

steel with an antler handle that had come loose.

Now that brain of his is a wee bit small, but full of

creativity. He knew this old handle would make for

a great lookin' knife handle. Being a big fan of

Jeff Morgan, Mr. Legendary Leather approached

him with a sketch and specifications on how he

wanted it to look. Mr. Legendary Leather loves

the look and feel of 1095 carbon steel that

Jeff Morgan uses in his knife blades.

Upon receiving the finished product, Mr. Legendary

Leather was excited to craft a sheath that would

bring out the best in his new custom knife.

Very much obliged to Jeff Morgan for creatin' his

knife, it's no wonder that Mr. Legendary Leather

has no hesitations on askin' Mr. Jeff Morgan for

another custom set. That's just what he did yesterday.

The Missus thinks that Mr. Legendary Leather

and Mr. Jeff Morgan are a pair of mighty fine

crafters. Their work paired up together makes for

a highly sought after piece of craftsmanship. You

all will just have to wait along with the Missus

to see what the next creation will behold.



KNIFE EXPO 2012

Mr. Legendary Leather is anticipatin' his trip to the next

Knife Expo being held March 23-25 in Pasadena.

As you know, Mr. Legendary Leather is a big fan

of Jeff Morgan, a master knife craftsman who remains

under the radar . . . no website, simply an address.

At the last Knife Expo, Mr. Legendary Leather spoke with

Jeff Morgan and requested a specific blade

be made and fitted to a handle that he brought

along with him. Mr. Morgan was very obligin'

Why didn't Mr. Legendary Leather simply buy the blade

and afix the handle and guard himself? After all he has

done so many times and came up with some

mighty fine creations in the process. When asked

this very question, Mr. Legendary Leather simply

explained that Jeff Morgan can do a better job

than he ever will be able to and at a mighty fine price.

With the mind already creatin', Mr. Legendary Leather has

already been sketchin' his next Jeff Morgan request.

With dimensions of his previous Jeff Morgan carbon steel

blade, Mr. Legendary Leather will be requesting Mr. Morgan

to add merino ram horn scales for the handle.

The Missus will be sure to post pictures of the finished

product when it arrives in a few months. Meanwhile,

on to the next project . . .

 . . . what in the world is that cowboy up to now??
