Hi guys,
I'm here again to sell you some knives. These are all my 4" blade x 4" handle modified drop point pattern, a great utilitarian blade. Some of these feature an updated pocket clip that I've been working into the rotation, and I'm pretty excited about that. Payment is via paypal, and I will ship them via USPS flatrate in the US for $5.75. If you would like to purchase one of these knives, please message me or send me an email at powell.josh@gmail.com

My edits aren't going through appropriately, so I am going to post some more details here:

Handle wraps: This these are wrapped with paracord with its interior threads stripped out. The technique for the wrap was reverse engineered from an ancient Chinese Dao by a SwordForum international moderator many years ago. It's a woven wrap, and I pull them really tight. You will have a hard time budging one of the cords, and the wrap pretty much can't come loose without the cord being compromised. Should that ever happen, I will be happy to rewrap it for a small fee.

Sheaths: These are .060" standard kydex sheaths. They have good retention, but still offer a comfortable draw. I'm pretty happy with the new pocket clips that are offered on some of this round. I've always really liked carrying a fixed blade in my pocket, and these are nice and flat and fit comfortably in a pocket, boot or belt. Kydex sheaths can and do leave minor scratches on blades. This batch is pretty good, and
isn't scratching badly at all, but that doesn't mean that it couldn't happen in the future.

Finish: The blades are in what I would describe as a low satin finish. It's a smooth 180 grit, smothered in scotchbrite. The patina is a combination of burnt oil and the mill scale that the steel has from the foundry. It's fairly durable, but can chip and peel under heavy use. It does help prevent some rust, but these knives still require a bit of oil. I've worked diligently to make sure that the edges and corners on these knives are smooth and hand friendly. I believe that there should be only one sharp edge on a knife.

Warranty: I like making knives, and I plan on doing it forever. I'll do my best to solve any problems that you have with my knives for the course of the business/my life. I'm happy to replace any knife that fails due to material flaw or workmanship, but I can't warrant against abuse.

As always, questions, commentary, name calling, etc are welcome.
