Foster Small Darkside in Damascus steel (O-1, 15N20, 1095), OAL is 6 inches, blade is 2.5 inches. Multi-carry sheath, leather over kydex with belt loop that can be positioned for vertical or horizontal, and for left or right hand carry. I purchased this directly from the maker. It is as new; never carried, used, or sharpened. My low-rez photos couldn't capture how nice the damascus is in hand. Price is *$OLD* shipped via PayPal, G&S. For US sale only.
Also up is a Gene Ingram Pocket Hippo. I'm the second owner. It was carried and used by the previous owner. The 1/8 inch D2 steel blade is 1 - 1/2 inches long, knife LOA is 4 inches. There are some scuffs and light scratches on the blade, and which also appears to have been sharpened. There is a small pencil point sized dark spot visible on the spine about 1/2 inch from the front of the handle toward the blade's tip. Scales are Hippo ivory with mosaic pins and a stainless steel lanyard tube. The scales have some faint scuffing, but nothing that can be felt; no deep scratches, chips, cracks, or scale shrinkage. Price is *$OLD* shipped via PayPal, G&S. For US sale only.
Please post "I'll take it" in this thread, followed by PM to purchase.
Edit to add: there is a very shallow gouge about 1/8th inch long that can be felt in the edge of the maker's mark side scale facing the blade's plunge line. Just discovered this flaw (with magnifying glass) and is hard to see except at certain angles.
I won't be able to ship these until the middle of next week. Thanks for looking.
