This is Part 2 of my 7th Annual "Going to the Dogs" Sale.
Part 1, which gives all the background on this benefit sale, is here:
https://www.bladeforums.com/threads...edicated-to-boy-part-1.1667277/#post-19070227
Please note that I’ve also reduced prices on the remaining knives in Part 1, so please take a look at those!
Everything is the same as in Part 1, including that 100% of the proceeds will go to the pups, but I’m offering up a new bunch of knives here in Part 2.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
For convenience sake, let me repeat the ground rules:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Details:
Prices include shipping, USPS 1st Class, w/ Delivery Confirmation. PayPal only. I'll cover the PayPal fees, so go ahead and list it as a sale of goods, not a gift.
1st unconditional "I'll take it", followed up with prompt payment. My PM/Conversations box fills up pretty quickly, so for payment info. or questions please e-mail me at: aforsythe4 (at) austin (dot) rr (dot) com
Once we have a deal, please post an "I’ll take it" in this sales thread, since that’s required for us both to leave feedback.
By buying these knives you are stating that you are at least 18 years of age, and otherwise in compliance with all applicable laws regarding them.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
International Sales Policies:
I like the international character of BF and so I’m usually willing to jump through the extra hoops to do international sales. Unfortunately, I’m a little more pressed for time this year due to some medical issues at my house, so I’m going to have to make it U.S.A. only for this sale.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Now without further ado, let’s get on to the second batch of knives!
Thanks for helping the pups!

The first two knives are part of a very generous donation from a good friend, BF member, and long time supporter of this sale. He is a first class “knife man” and a first class “dog man” who resides in the great state of Arizona and has asked to remain anonymous.
1) GEC #152118B&C Boys Knife in Gabon Ebony with Bail & Chain. Credit for the donation of this beauty goes not only to my unnamed friend but also to another great knife man with a kind heart, Gary Norton, who some of you in the knife world may’ve had the pleasure of dealing with. Thanks to them both.
Appears unused and unsharpened. Perfect medium pull with half stops. Beautiful Gabon ebony. A great example of this pattern.
Includes tube & wax paper. $88.00 $83.00 $79.00 WITHDRAWN and re-posted in Part 5: https://www.bladeforums.com/threads/afaustin’s-7th-annual-going-to-the-dogs-sale-part-5.1672888/
SOLD in Part 6: https://www.bladeforums.com/threads/afaustin’s-7th-annual-going-to-the-dogs-sale-part-6.1675517/
2) Winchester Black Box Small Gunstock Jack #2851 (‘88). Appears unused and unsharpened, with one small mark on clip blade towards tip. 3 1/16" closed. My recollection is that the blade steel on most BB Winchesters is D2 but I’m not certain on that. Beautiful bone, darker on pile side. Pulls are medium strong (the pen a little stronger than the main) but very manageable. Lovely little knife.
Includes box (which has a few wear spots). $45.00 SOLD
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This next knife was donated by a BF member from Illinois who is a generous supporter of this sale and a great dog man (and who has asked to remain anonymous). Many thanks to him.
3) J.A. Henckels Stockman #HK-3-FLIV in Light Brown Pick Bone. 4" closed. Stainless blades. Made in Germany. The generous donor tells me these were contract made by Boker from 1991 to 2007. Appears unused and unsharpened, with a small blade rap midway between the tip and the nail nick on the main that will likely be resolved with the first sharpening. Nice medium pulls. Pretty bone and a comfortable feel in hand.
Includes box (not the original). $45.00 SOLD
