This may seem schizophrenic to some but not to me or many of my
friends:
fine guns and knives, weapons and tools, fine art, jewelry, and more. I
suspect I will add to this constantly. Please make recommendations or
even
product reviews....
- Adolphsen Bros Muzzleloaders:
They will build you an 18th or 19th Century gun or repair one you own.
- Artists for Nature Foundation: http://www.anf-yb.nl/
Ysbrand Brouwers sends teams of the best artists around (not always
even
wildlife artists) to endangered places, and has them record those
places in
paintings, sculptures, and books. A good cause, incredible art.
- Basko knives: http://basko.guns.ru/
High end Russian knives-- amazing engraving.
- CZ USA: http://www.cz-usa.com/
Reasonable Mausers, from the Czech Republic.
- De Haan Shotguns: http://www.DHshotguns.com/
Best deal in double guns around-- Turkish Huuglus. John Barsness
endorses
them, which is good enough for me-- I'm saving my pennies.
- Desert Rose Design Studios: http://www.desertrosedesignstudio.com/
Elegant jewelry by a woman who is a naturalist, conservationist, and
hunter!
- Early Rustic Arms: http://www.earlyrusticarms.com/main.htm
He builds WORKING turn- of- the- 19th Century rifles and smoothbores.
- Gallery Pangolin: http://www.pangolin-editions.com/gallery.html
A sculpture gallery founded by Rungwe Kingdon, son of the Oxford and
Africa
artist- scientist- polymath Jonathan Kingdon. The most amazing
sculpture
foundry in England, perhaps in Europe-- they have done life- sized
bronzes
of elephants and camels-- is "attached".
- Gary Barnes Pneumatic Arms: http://www.glbarnes.com/
Exquisite air rifles, even more individually hand- made than an English
"Best".
- Hill Rod and Gun Club: http://www.hillrodandgun.com/
Best selection of reasonably priced English doubles around.
Here are not one but several good bow sites linking to traditional
recurve,
Asian, and horse bows. If you are interested you should look at them
all.
