I made this knife in trade for some lessons. When I showed it to the instructor, he said that he was invisioning something smaller!. I agreed to make him another knife (smaller) and got his permission to sell this one here. (I figured I should ask him, since it was actually his knife). I began calling it "the bad deal knife", cause I realized half way through making it that I could have sold it, and paid for the lessons with money to spare. I was kind of glad that he decided he didnt want it.

Enough rambling

So here it is.

1095 steel with a visible clay coated hamon.

Black linen micarta handle.

Kydex sheath with a rotating belt loop. It rotates 90 degrees.

This knife is rather large (look at the pic with the ruler)

Price - $180 shipped

Paypal preferred to mlwbailey@yahoo.com

That's a wicked bad knife you got there, excellent hamon, a steal at the price! If only I were buying instead of selling right now . . .
 
Maker and owner, that's a extremely sturdy sharp looking knife :thumbup:

I bet you won't be dissappointed CorporalChaos, good purchase :)

I bet I won't either! I've been trying to grab one of Matt's knives for awhile now, but have always been too late.

BTW PP sent!
 
Hmm.... I had inquired about this one (via email) early this evening, and received a response from Matthew saying that it was available. I promptly responded to the email saying I was sending payment, and did so. Upon checking this thread now, I see that it looks as if another payment was sent for the same knife. I paid promptly after hearing from Matthew that it was available, but perhaps CorporalChaos beat me to the punch with a more rapid PayPal payment.... if that's the case, then kudos "Chaos." I'll wait to hear what Matthew/PayPal has to report in the AM.
 
Cratercarver, I sent you an email.

Basically this is what it said.

I really screwed up. I saw the email you sent me and its tagline was Cratercarver at bladeforums. I got it mixed up in my head with Corporalchaos. It was a dumb mistake and completely my fault. I feel like an idiot. I will refund your payment if you like, or make you an identical knife (as identical as I can), the choice is up to you. Again, I am very sorry. I should have paid better attention.

I guess I assumed that corporalchaos had sent me an email.
 
No problem at all. I just replied to your email. CorporalChaos and CraterCraver... I easily could have made the same mistake---if I wasn't one of the two, that is. :)
