I got one of his knives as a Christmas present and would like to know more about him. I tried searching the 'net, but I come up with some Asian-looking advertisement for tires!

I've never heard of him; he's not in the Texas Knifemakers Guild.

Thanks, Jank! I guess he's not too well known. His logo is the State of Texas map with an "N" in the middle of it, and the person who gave me the knife said that Norell uses old sawmill blades as his blanks and then shapes and heat treats them. He also makes his own sheaths.

Agree, Will Norvell. Pastor at Redeemer church on 71. Active on Texas Bowhunting Forum and FB. Nice fella.

Thanks a lot, timberghost and Jason! It was frustrating to do a search and not be able to find anything about the guy or his work.
