I have a near mint Charles Marlowe channel bali with beadblasted one-piece stainless steel handles and a satin finished ATS-34 clip point blade for sale. Charles is one of the most sought-after makers in the custom tactical/utility folder and balisong arena and a hell of a nice guy, too, and it is very rare to see his work show up on the secondary market. This knife is marked "022" on the blade.
The Marlowe listed here has been lightly flipped, but aside from a few light marks on the knife, it is in mint condition. Charles is known as the "king of sharp" among owners of his knives when it comes cutting edges, and the edge on this piece is no exception to the consensus. This is a very solidly built custom bali, and it flips absolutely great.
***SOLD***
The specs:
Condition: Near mint
Blade length: 4 1/4" from tip to handle
Overall length: 9 1/8"
Blade thickness: 3/16" at ricasso
Blade steel: ATS-34
Blade finish: Satin
Edge: Plain
Handle material: One-piece stainless steel, skeletonized and beadblasted
Clip: None
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
Tim Galyean
Kit Carson
Deryk Munroe
Jim Burke
Rick Hinderer
Charles Marlowe
Jim Smyth
DB Fraley
Matt Cucchiara
Todd Begg
Bob Lum
Scott Cook
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 Tim Galyean, John Young, Jerry Hossom, or Russ Andrews.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions. Thanks for looking!
