John W. Smith Custom Tactical SG-2 Flicker

John W. Smith makes as fine a knife as anybody in the Tactical Knife World--functional, efficient, & effective, while being superbly Fitted and Finished, and beautiful. His knives are extensively collected by his fellow knifemakers, and if he only had a presence on Facebook, Instagram and/or the Knife Forums, his knives would bring twice what they now sell for.

Every time I am asked what is a good value in the Tactical Knife World--John W. Smith is my suggestion. "Who?" or "John W. Smith?" is unfortunately the reply I often get.
