These little knives are by far the most popular that I make and I am offering five of them at this this time. Small but the same quality as my larger, more expensive knives. Hollow ground from 1/8 inch ATS34 heat treated to Rc 58-60 with a cryogenic quench and mirror polish. Overall length is approximately 5 3/4 inches including the lanyard ring with a 2 5/8 inch blade. All five have cocobola handles and come with a hand sewn leather scabbard.

$50 plus $5 shipping to the continental US. Paypal and money order accepted and will take your check if you don't mind waiting for it to clear before I ship.

I purchased one of these jewels a few months ago when he offered 5 for sale. As I remember, they were gone in less than an hour.
 
The little knives are gone. Thanks to everyone for the great interest. I really enjoy making this simple little knife and it makes it more fun when I see that people are interested in them too. I started making these to use up that last little piece of steel from a bar and the small pieces of left over wood. I never dreamed they would be this popular. Thanks again to everyone!

Just curious if you have been using yours? If so would you mind posting on its performance or emailing me or PM'ing me on same? Thanks in advance for all your assistance..:cool:
 
I bought one last time around as well. Ended up giving it to my dad on Father's Day. I kept it unused as it was going to be a gift, but I can tell you that it was very sharp and expertly made. Glad to have been able to jump in on this deal too, since I get to keep this one. A real bargain, IMO.

cheers
 
When I received it the first thing I noticed was that it is small. Smaller than I thought it would be. But, the overall quality stood out as well. Fit and finish are excellent - lines are smooth, blade is highly polished, of a suitable thickness, and very sharp tip to tang. No rough spots. The wood grain in the handle is from of a nice selection of wood and, the fat'ish handle fits the hand nicely.

The sheath is robust, functional but crude. Since my knife is used mostly in the kitchen, I don't really use the sheath. If I did then I would probably have a custom made. Not that there is anything wrong with the included sheath but, I just prefer a slightly thinner and more refined look to a sheath.

I could find very little to fault on the quality, execution and performance of this knife. Well, except perhaps that I often wish it was a bit larger. As a matter of fact, I am pondering over asking for a larger version of this knife.

Got my knife today and it is fantastic.

Doing some serious looking at some of your other knives (if I can get to one of them before they are sold).

Thanks for a super bargain, Gerry.


Best regards

Received my two custom drop point fixed blade knives in rapid fashion as well! Super Job all the way! Gerry is a very talented maker. Frankly, I really was not expecting the kind of quality for the price since the pictures in the original photograph was hard for me to make out and this was my first ever purchase from Mr. Drew. Man was I pleasantly surprised to see what this man can do when I opened the package.

Gerry,
Great Job and keep up the fine work. Also I just started a new thread over in the Good, Bad and the Ugly about these great little fixed blades and your work in general.

Many Blessings,
Tony
 
I got a little knife from another maker very similar to these, paid 4 times Gerry's price and it wasn't a bit nicer.
I'm getting in line quick when these come around again.
These do nice in a kydex sheath that just covers the blade.
