G.K. Fraker is a native of Johnson County, Wyoming. He lives and works in Buffalo, Wyoming. He has spent many years as a working ranch hand and as a rodeo contestant. He puts his years of real experience into the design, materials selection, and craftsmanship of cowboy's tools he builds. Fraker saddles are used by many a cowboy to ride his work-a-day job. Whether its an everyday working saddle, a weekend or professional roper, or the fanciest circuit-ready, silver-laden show piece, are all built with the quality that is the trademark of G.K. Fraker. Each saddle from Fraker Saddlery is custom built for the client. The hardwood trees are sized to your specifications, built by hand, then wrapped in hand-sewn rawhide. This attention to your needs means that your favorite tree style is custom fit to both you and your horse -- ensuring maximum comfort and workability for horse and rider. G.K. has been a saddle maker for over 30 years. He is one of a handful in the nation recognized as a Master Custom Tree Maker by the Montana Arts Council. His work has won numerous awards, including the CSMA "Best of Show" Award. Your own special finishing touches -- full flower carving, border stamping, maybe some silver trim -- can be incorporated into your finished work of art.
