Thanks for looking - if you know you want one for sure, let me know and I'll put your name on it. ;)

Dan - I would love to see the stag one. Are these the 3V nessmuks?
 
These are all 3/32" thick 1095. :thumbup:

Pricing will be the same as the previous Nessmuk runs. ;)


Dan
 
I'll take a green canvas Micarta! PM me with payment details!;):D

Dan, That camel bone looks NICE. You might have to add that one to the regular offerings. Is it stabilized?
 
I did not think at first sight that I needed a Nessmuk, but the more I look the weaker I become! I may get one of these yet..... Black micarta with red liners.... :cool:


Leather sheaths only, or is there kydex out there for them too?
 
I would like a Nessmuk in Green Canvas Micarta. Please PM with payment details when ready. Thanks.
 
I would like to buy the stag handled one and a quickdraw sheath in leather, if available. Please send payment details. AND..., more pics please!!!
 
updated the list - will reply to PMs/emails as soon as I can...

Dan
 
Any PM's tonight? I am not sure if I'll get a chance to check email until late tomorrow night and would like to know if I can afford one and don't want to put one on hold if I can't get it (guess the stag is out?).

Probably not....I might do one now-n-then...but it's pricey stuff and has to be selected "in person" rather than mail-ordered.

Yes, it is stabilized.

I do make kydex sheaths - but only the quickdraw style. And only on request.

Could you send me a PM on the price for the Camel, stag and exotics (BTW what are they)? Thanks.

Dan, I would be interested in a natural micarta model but I have a question first. Would I be able to get a left handed QD sheath with the firesteel loop and the knife in my hand by Nov 4 (that is when I am leaving on my hunting trip). If it is too rushed, I will pass on this run and get one another time. If it is doable, I will send payment later tonight. I will check this post later for a reply. Thanks. Sorry to be a pain in the ass left hander...:D
 
Ok Dan, paypal will be sent shortly. Lets do a natural micarta with black left handed sheath with loop (dont need the firesteel). Let me know if you get the paypal ok. If I did my math right it will be 193.80 with the extra 2% for pp fees.
 
Dan (or anyone, for that matter),

The blades on your nessmuks looks really, really cool - why does it look like that?

The funds aren't there now for one of these, but I will definitely own one sooner or later.

Take care,

Geoff

That is from the quench....blade is at 1475 (and dropping quickly) when it gets plunged edge-first into quenchant heated to 130-140 degrees. Pretty violent reaction...FUEGO!!! The black is what's leftover after I scrub the scale off...and the brighter spots (especially those near the edge) are where the knife was edge-quenched (only the edge goes in the quenchant).

So, basically you are looking at an explosion captured in steel. :D
