I just picked up my first custom from Bob on eBay.  Blue anodized Ti and brass Super Tinker.  This thing is truly amazing to behold.  Excellent fit and finish, and all the tools have great “snap.”  I’ve been emailing back and forth with Bob about making a custom all-Ti Scientist with back scale drawer.  I’d also like to have him convert my Explorer to alox one day.  Point being this is just the first of what will likely turn into several Syph007 customs for me.
Is that where he sells more is on eBay? The website seems to have been abandoned. I'd like to look at the amazing work, and potentially buy one. Or are they straight custom where you work out the details direct with him and go from there?

Amazing stuff. Some of the very best saks out there for sure!

Instagram is where I post everything I do and do most of my business.  I desperately need to pay someone to redo my website, I dont have the time at all.  I have a couple models listed on ebay but by far I mostly build ordered customs.  Dont get me wrong Im happy to be busy, Im just not sure how I can streamline the custom order process.  Maybe some kind of click and sumbit thing on the site with options...

I just happened upon two knives he had for sale up on eBay... this one, and an all-brass Spartan.  Most of his work is custom orders, but I think he made up a batch of these Super Tinkers to sell.

My first from Robert’s expert hands:


A Super thinker, with brass liners, blue Ti scales, matching brass tweezers.
I then, sent it to the EU, for some decorative work, namely some filing of the springs, scissors and main blade. I just love the European knife filling. Reminds me of the Laguiole knives I have cherished since my grandad gave me one 48 years ago. Anyways I digress.

It is, by far, the best “finished” and assembled SAK I own. Blade snap! You haven’t heard blade snap until you own a Syph modded beauty. Just my two cents worth. But be careful, they are also RAZOR Sharp out of the box.

Here's my latest Syph masterpiece...Tumbled Ti Scientist with brass cross, brass magnifier, and hidden scale drawer. Bob converted an actual Scientist for this build because I wanted the oldschool long inline Phillips.

Tex,
The gent is a member here: Michel M, he and Robert were discussing the intricacies of the Syph springs and postand screws assembly. This ensured a beautiful fit in France after the file work was done. Them two fellows should get together and produce the best knives one could get.

I own two custom Voyageurs from Bob.  The first is an 84 mm knife I had him make from a Golfer that I was the original owner of.  It has orange scales and Bob peened the brass pins over beautifully.   I have attempted this now myself so I know how difficult it is to do.

The second is a 93 mm Voyageur with silver scales.  This knife uses the Torx screws instead of pins, and is one of my favorite EDC's. 

Thanks all,

Myron






And here are the two with my only real Voyageur:
