As a rider and trainer your hands and your legs are your closest physical connection to the horse. Great tools for communication at both points are invaluable. It's even better when they are pretty. 😉

If your bridle rack needs one of these, let me know and I'll get you on the list.

I am so grateful for my friend Greg Darnall for always helping me gain a better understanding how to help horses and riders through bit mechanics and design functional western art. Greg's care for horses and the world surrounding them is a benefit to all of us. I'm blessed to know you Greg. Thank you for all that you do and your influence on my work.

Who's the golfer in your life that needs their initials engraved on this hand engraved pitch mark tool? This will make a beauty of a gift.

Or

Maybe you need to just "treat yoself"!

Either way DM for price

Shop time keeps me too busy to post new pictures sometimes, but I couldn't resist posting pictures of these classy spurs. Huge thanks to Jacqueline Coblentz for trusting me to design and build these for you. This was a fun project. Can't wait to see where you and Vinnie go with these!

These hand engraved folders went quick. DM to get on the list and get one for yourself. Copper or brass...or one of each!

SOLD! DM for pricing. Your pick, brass or copper scales. VG10 blade, liner lock with a deep carry pocket clip. these are both, "shave with sharp", solid lockup and zero play. They make a great father's day or mother's day gift or maybe just a gift to yourself. Don't miss out, these go pretty quick.

Sometimes a project a project comes along that goes beyond the ordinary. These were commissioned by a friend for a Navy Seal. This was a lot of fun to think outside the box, buld something different and a great chance to serve someone who is currently serving.

Thanks for trusting me to build these.

Growing up our family finished feedlot beef and did a fine job of it, but I can honestly say this is the best beef you are going to find. Jackson's are killing it with their cattle. If you are in the market for a side or even a quarter, do yourself a favor and call them. You won't find better meat... Anywhere.

I've been too busy to keep up with social media lately, but I had the chance to build this buckle for the IEA regionals sportsmanship award. Its great to see young people riding, competing and being awarded for good sportsmanship!
