I've got a show coming up October 23 in Big Spring, TX. I've got to build up an inventory, but also need money to buy supplies. There are three knives pictured here, all for sale, but whenever the first one is bought, the other two are off the market, to hold back for the show.
The first knife is a mini skinner, 5 1/2 inches from tip to tail, with a blade length of 2 1/2 inches. This knife is made from 1/8 inch 1080, clay quenched and etched/polished to show a nice wavy hamon. Handle material is juniper burl from Ruidoso, TX. This knife has double-cut wave filework.
The second knife is my Spicewood Special model, with mirror polished brass bolsters and elk stag handle. The handle isn't symmetrical, in order to preserve as much of the natural "bark" of the stag as possible. The bolsters and stag do match up perfectly, but the black from the cloth is reflecting in the brass in the second pic making it look funny. OAL is 7 7/8, and the blade length is 3 1/2. This blade is also 1/8 1080 carbon steel.
The third knife is a file, with brass dovetailed bolsters, paduak handle w/ black liners, and a mosaic pin. OAL is 8 inches, blade is 3 3/4.
Thanks for looking
Jason
