One of the things I like about these forums is the honor of the people here. In a day of no morals and questionable character it's good to know that there are still good people around.

Speaking of early knives, I notice your location is Durban, SA. I have a beautiful Chris Reeve Aviator made from D2 while Chris was still down there.
 
Well, thanks...

That's awesome. The SA ones are pretty collectible too I believe.

I've heard that you use a gun blue pen on the edge. INFI won't blue, other metals (ATS-34, D2) will. The final word is from Jerry. He can read the sparks to tell you what alloy it is.
Beautiful blade and, BTW, I'll take it. (Ha ha)

Well, I will advise him to hang onto it for now. I guess it will only increase in value. If he's really desperate for the dough, I guess the best bet would be to put it on the exchange here.

Thanks for all the help fellas!

Nice blade, and cool of you to find out for your buddy vs letting him give it away.

(Let's keep all the offers to buy/sell out of this forum guys. You know how I get... :cool: )

Actually, it's probably reached its apex in terms of increasing value.

I'd agree with my fellow Hogs at setting this somewhere around $1K ... especially if it's as pristine as that picture indicates.

It he doesn't "love" it, he might as well sell it on the Exchange. Someone will indeed pick it up for a fair price.:thumbup:


[No, this is not an offer to buy, that would be entirely inappropriate. It is merely a suggestion to "take her to the Exchange."]
 
What sheath?

If He got it from Jerry Direct, the sheath will help with a Time line as to A-2 or INFI.

Kydex and INFI 1999 Happened pretty often.

1996 would be A-2.

But in 1999 the magic Happened.
