Company is called Blackstone Valley Arms and is run by owner Carl Blando, a friend of mine, who is long time knife enthusiast and MA/knife MA enthusiast and LEO.
He'd have to give additional details on above if interested. His design philosophy (his knives are clearly not your 'typical' designs) is briefly outlined, prices seem reasonable for custom and semi custom stuff, and they have a "build a knife" option where you can have what ever you want made done on your own design/thoughts.
Carl is working with knife maker Bruce Gillespie on this project, and knowing Carl, quality will be a priority.
No personal stake in the above, but cops are the worst marketers around (getting into flame retardant suit now :dance3: ) so I'm helping a good guy get the word on on a few forums where I know good people frequent. :cool::cool:
