Hi Fellas: I designed this Double Bird's Head Handle EDC using a Dozier K-6 Companion as the starting point. I liked the profile of the knife, but the D-2, machine finish, 1/4" thick tang, and kydex sheath ended up with the knife sitting in a drawer for 15 years. I recently traced the pattern out and sold it. I named the knife because of the bird's head/eye/beak you see in the construction. Point the tip up and you'll see a bird's head at the ricasso - tip the point down and you'll see a bird's head at the butt. The unique Gabon Ebony S bolsters are perfectly aligned with each side on the tang. The pictures don't show the fiddleback well in the Claro Walnut - the butt of the knife has a black claro/english walnut graft line just behind the back rivet. The horizontal sheath can be worn right, left, cross, or behind the back draw. $235 delivered ConUS, USPS Priority Mail insured. Please PM me for Paypal information.....the first "I'll take it" gets it. The bolsters on this knife are extremely exacting and labor intensive - special order for this knife is $300. Maker's lifetime common sense guarantee and free sharpening.

Best regards,

TK
