| Comments: | I hired Kaleb to restore 2 Winchester folders that were damaged by "celluloid disease". I also had him replace the celluloid handles with wood and ivory. The results of his work were stunning and I was very pleased with the results. I would highly recommend contacting Kaleb if you have any knives you would like restored . |

| Comments: | Kaleb did three schatt & Morgan cotton samplers with really bad handles.He put mammoth Ivory on one and Rams Horn on the second and Prime Stag on the third and worked the backspring on all three and there beautiful.I've already been offered alot more than I've got in them.Kaleb is awsome, all you got to do is kinda let him know what you want and turn him loose.He treats the knife hes working on just like it is his.Hes doing two more now and were fixing to do about twenty.HES THE MAN,AND HE IS NOT A RIP OFF OR CON ARTIST,YOU GET MORE THAN YOU PAY FOR.THANKS FOR EVERYTHING, KALEB..ROBERT |

| Comments: | I had kaleb do 2 knives for me and let me tell you there is nothing he is not willing to try and accomplish. Very much an artist with the eye of a technician. He has the ability to take your vision and make it a bit better than you had hoped. I had him rehandle a schatt waterfall cell into stag because of gassing out of the celluloid. Also he did for me a rehandle on a Fightn Rooster knife that I wanted something new on. And let me tell you it came out fantastic. I would highly encourage you to let mm do some work for you, you will be very pleased indeed. Perry |

| Comments: | I cannot be any happier with the work that Kaleb (Muskrat Man) did on a knife for me. I had an old Schrade 204S that was in pretty ratty condition. The wood handles looked atrocious and the blades were so rusty it was hard to tell there were blades there. The blades had absolutely no walk and talk at all. I was sure this knife was destined for the garage heap (where I keep all my knives that are no longer serviceable). Well, I sent it to Kaleb and what I got back was a work of art. He transformed a worthless heap of wood and metal into a beautiful knife. The wood looks like it just came off of the tree and the blades look like they were just forged. As soon as I got it back, it went to the most distinguished place I could put a knife: my front pocket. I get compliments on the knife every time I take it out. Thanks Muskrat! |
