They were also commissioned to make all the Indian costumes for the TV series "Son of the Morning Star", a documentary on the life of General George Armstrong Custer. Their work is also represented in Museums in Canada,Wyoming, Okelahoma, and California.

Vernie Reed

This is the very latest knife from Vernie Reed. It takes a long time to absorb all the details on a Vernie Reed knife. As you check the very precise filework on the liners, the hand made, solid gold screws, and the handmade thumb-bob, the many exactly centered solid gold pins, you begin to appreciate the time involved in his extraordinary fits and attention to detail. Vernie describes this drive to perfection as "anal" He can't stand for any part of his knives not to be perfect. This wharncliffe folder is no exception. The outstandingly colorful Black Lip Pearl spews color, the damascus pattern on the blade is bold, and the bolster damascus is complex and compact. The inserts in the spacer bar are as finished on the inside as they are on the outside. When you own a Reed knife you own perfection not only in materials,but in every ounce of skill that Vernie pocesses! OAL is 6.25in Blade is 2.75in Closed 3.675i
