Most knife people know Bob Dozier as a great knifemaker, but few know him for the open hearted and generous person that he is. He told me of a remarkable knifemaker in Carolina who made great knives which were really under priced. Seeing him as totally honest and straight-forward, and producing top notch knives, Bob thought he warranted more recognition. After a year's work by Bob, Wayne and his wife Ruby, together with Goldie and I, we are happy to feature his knives with sheaths made by his wife, Ruby.

Wayne was trained by George Herron, a very early Knifemakers Guild member and founder of the "South Carolina school of knifemaking". You can see that influence in his work. In addition to being a knifemaker, Wayne is a hunting guide. His knives are built to function for both the novice and the expert and to hold up to hard use.
