PAYMENT AND ORDERING DETAILS


I will accept personal checks, money orders and of course, good ol' cash. Because I am a small knife maker, I don't accept credit cards or Paypal as they would charge me and the cost of your knife would go up. I just like to keep it simple and after I deposit your check or money order and it clears my bank, then I'll make your knife and send it to you. This generally takes about three weeks for you to get your knife. If I have a great deal of orders, like Christmas orders, I will tell you when and if delivery time is moved back. I want all of my customers to get their knives on time when I tell them it will be there.

I am going to start putting the different styles of knives, sheaths, etc. that I make on the next few pages. You pick out the one you want me to make and call me for details or blog me or email me @ texasdeerslayerknives@yahoo.com.

AN INTRODUCTION TO TEXAS DEERSLAYER KNIVES


     Texas Deerslayer Knives is a maker of custom hunting, fillet and display knives in Spring, Texas. My name is Bob and started making knives for my family and friends a few years ago. They loved them and I enjoyed making them so much that I decided to start making them for the hunter, fisherman and collector. I use blades from the best steel I can find such as: 420, 440C, 6A stainless steel, Rockwell C 59 to 62 hardness carbon steel, Soligen, Swedish, Norwegian, Japan and Damascus steel. My knives are the hidden tang type with handles made from Whitetail, Mule Deer, Axis Deer, Fallow Deer, Red Stag and Bull Elk antler sheds. These knives will last you a life time, stay sharp and won't let you down. You can pay big bucks for a custom one of a kind knife but my knives price from $35 on up but most are $115. I make custom leather sheaths, although I have nylon ones also, that you can choose from. I make them plain as you want on up to putting a basket weave design with your initials on it. My display stands are hand made from the plain one to the ever popular Rattlesnake stand. My other products include antler pistol handles, euro lamps and belt buckles. On the next pages of the Texas Deerslayer Knives blog, I'll put up photo's, descriptions, pricing, shipping, and all the information you need to pick out your knife and order it. I thank you for browsing my knife blog and you are welcome to call me anytime @ 832-213-7459 for information.
Sincerely,
Bob
