HI friends, I have purchased this fixed blade knife from a garage sale. all I can find and hear about this knife is that the imprint on blade says: RDW
the blade is: about 10 1/2'
the handle is 5".
full length is 16"
and comes with sharpening stone.
someone once told me these were made by two brothers from Colorado. and very few were ever duplicated.
I thank you all for your help.
I'm no knife expert, but the "R" & style could be Randall.
Not a knife collector, but look here:

Looks like pw-collector nailed it. RDW knife.
This knife was made by a knife maker in upstate NY. His name was Ryan D Wielkie . I believe he worked in a shop with his father Erryn. They sold knives on Ebay for a few years ,along with a active website to have custom knives made direct. I know this because I purchased one of his top $1000 fighter/bowies. knives. The bowie in the picture was one of those top end sold on Ebay listing for $1000. I believe this this knife was sold on line between 2012-2013 or around that time. I still have his knife but I am unable to find a active website & they are no longer on Ebay. I believe his shop was located near or in Collins NY near Buffalo. I too would like to know where they have gone ?. They made a very high quality knife. If anyone is interested, Email me I will send a picture of the Bowie I have.
