I have a mint condition Kit Carson medium Model 4 liner lock with green/black G-10 handle scales, beadblasted titanium bolsters, and a handrubbed D2 modified drop point blade for sale. Kit is one of the true legends among makers of tactical/utility folders, and his work is increasingly difficult to obtain. With full handle contouring, this particular piece is one of the nicest non-fancy folders that I've ever seen from him.
The medium Model 4 listed here has never been carried, used, or resharpened, and its original edge from Kit is sharp. The opening action is very smooth, the lock-up is rock solid, and the blade centering is just about dead perfect.
***SOLD***
The specs:
Condition: Mint
Blade length: 3 5/8" from tip to bolsters
Overall length: 8 1/2"
Blade thickness: 5/32" at ricasso
Blade steel: D2
Blade finish: Handrubbed
Edge: Plain
Bolsters: Titanium, beadblasted
Handle scale material: Green/black G-10
Lock: Titanium liner lock, beadblasted
Backspacer: Black G-10
Clip: Tip down, stainless steel, beadblasted
For payment on this piece, I strongly prefer USPS money orders, but I will also accept PayPal or personal check if I know you. If you are paying by PayPal, I will cover the fees, but the payment has to be sent with a PayPal-confirmed address (including the green "confirmed" marker) listed in the invoice, and I will only ship to that PayPal-confirmed address. I reserve the right to wait for personal checks to clear before I ship.
I will consider trades (with appropriate cash adjustment) for custom folders and custom balis. I am especially interested in the following makers:
JL Williams
Charles Marlowe
Tim Galyean
Bob Lum
Sal Manaro
Kit Carson
Deryk Munroe
Gerry McGinnis
Scott Cook
Jim Burke
Ernie Emerson
Rick Hinderer
Jim Smyth
DB Fraley
Matt Cucchiara
Todd Begg
Tom Mayo
Neil Blackwood
Ken Onion
Phil Boguszewski
Flavio Ikoma (balis only)
Mauricio Dobruski (balis only)
I may consider trades for other custom folders not listed above. However, I am not interested in serrated blades, production knives, or fixed blades other than those by John Young or Russ Andrews.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions. Thanks for looking!
