Here's 3 customs by the Grand Bastid Dirk Potgeiter, otherwise known as Oupa. All are in like new condition. Payment will be postal money order please. Shipping will be USPS Priority Mail with delivery confirmation. Onto the knives.
1st up is a Scandi style Dirk did for a competition on another forum. Here is Dirk's own description:
"ARCTIC SUNRISE"
A brilliant white sun rises over the icy horizon, and spears white light through the dark forest…..
I have tried to stay true to the scandi style, add a bit of flair and make sure that the handle, while being comfortable, is practical as well.
The knife is 7 ¼” in length overall with a cryo treated 440C blade.
The blade features my genuine imitation wootz look and has my flaming edge engraved along the cutting edge.
The handle is Bocote with white corian, spacer material, copper, brass and African Ebony.
There is a brass inlay in the butt end.
There is also a unique Wood/Leather sheath included.
Price is $165 shipped. You won't find another like this anywhere.
Next up is a small scalpel style in Leopardwood. The blade is 2 1/4" of ATS34 if I remember correctly. OAL is 6 1/4". Has some of Dirk's custom copper inlay on one side. Sheath was done by Mitch of Redhand Leather.
Price is $135 shipped.
Last up is a necker done by Dirk in orange G10 with black liners. Blade is ATS 34. A sweet little necker that feels great in hand.
$100 shipped.
Here's a chance for someone to grab some nice Oupa pieces that will probably never be available again.
