Allegheny Knife(clip point version)

[joelbolden]

I build this with either a drop or clip point. With the clip it's basically a small bowie with a bird's head grip. Specs:
Flatground from 1/8" 154CM, cryo by D'Holder. Distal taper, satin finish, convex edge. The Blade is 4.5 inches from tip to guard and the OAL is 9 inches. Weighs 6.7 ounces. The bolster is copper and the handle is stabilized maple burl(with some really nice figure) with copper/brass mosaic pins and copper lanyard liner. There's red/black spacers and red liners. The sheath is 8/10 oz veggie tanned leather; saddle stitched with welt. It's waterproofed with sno-seal. The pics were taken towards evening in a snow storm, I'll have to take better ones tomorrow.
Price: $180.00USD. That includes postage as far as the UK and no Paypal fees. Checks/MO also accepted. My E-mail/paypal address is casmircb@windstream.netThanks for looking.

This knife is up for sale again. Bruce doesn't care for the distal taper(prefers a straight spine) in the blade, so he sent it back. He didn't use it and it's still pristine, but I'll drop the price by $20.00 because it's been "in the mail". Price is now $160.00USD

This is a great looking knife. Fit & finish on it is flawless & I loved the maple burl scales & copper together.. But as Joel mentioned, I prefer a beefier spine on my fixed blades & the taper on this one was unfortunately, too much for my liking.
I almost kept it despite this, but decided it was best to immediately return it.
