After 30 plus years of making knives I have 13 different models in my current catalog. And each year I make the same models over and over again. They are all easily recognized as "Bill Luckett Designs" without even seeing the Logo. These are the knives that I am known for, Large Sub-hilt fighters and Bowies.

But I am always trying to come up with new designs, something different but still holding true to the Bill Luckett Style of Knife. So late in 2007 I decided to start the "1 of 1 Series".

Each year I will make one or two knives that are not standard models as shown in my catalog. I want to do "Something Different, a One of a Kind". I try to expand my design and building capabilities and just see what I can come up with. I usually like to spend some time at the drawing table designing/drawing a full size picture of the knife. But sometimes an idea will hit me and I just make a quick sketch on anything available and then clean it up later when I have more time.

So "The One of One Series" comes into being. Each knife will be a "One of a Kind" and will be marked on the blade "1 of 1". No two knives will be the same nor will it be something that you can place an order for. Each will be completed as to my design, I pick the handle material, blade steel, etc. Truly a "Luckett Custom Design". If you purchase one of these knives, you will have the only one in the world like it.

If you are interested in having something special, a One of Kind piece, you can contact me and see what is next for this series.

The 2008 One of One is here

The first One of One for 2008 is a 'Bowie Style' knife with Leopard Pattern Damascus Steel blade, 10 x 1 3/4 x 1/4 inches. The Guard and Butt-Cap are both random pattern damascus off set with Black, Brass and Stainless Steel spacers. The handle is stabilized 'Mammoth Ivory' all shaped with multiple contours and deep hollow grinds. This knife is already sold, so I guess I will have to make something new for a second 2008 One of One.
