I have an Ernie Emerson custom Commander liner lock folder with OD green canvas micarta handle scales, titanium bolsters, and a waved satin finished 154CM recurve blade for sale. The Commander is arguably Ernie's most sought-after model, and it is a big, versatile EDC. This particular Commander is ground on both sides of the blade, with a standard edge on the logo side of the blade and a zero ground edge on the other side. As the pictures show, this piece has the thick liner.

The Commander listed here appears to have been carried but not used or resharpened, and its original edge from Ernie is very sharp. There are some light carry marks on the bolsters, but the blade is pristine. The action is smooth, and the knife is easy to open with a light flick of the thumb. I uploaded a brief video here to demonstrate the action. The lock-up is rock solid, and the blade centering is near perfect.

For payment on this piece, I strongly prefer USPS money orders, but I will also accept PayPal (add 3% to cover most PayPal fees) or personal check if I know you. If you are paying by PayPal, 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 payments to clear before I ship.

I will consider trades (with appropriate cash adjustment) for custom folders and certain custom balis. I am especially interested in the following makers:

JL Williams
Charles Marlowe
Tim Galyean
Deryk Munroe
Bob Lum
Kit Carson
Gerry McGinnis
Mike Snody
Sal Manaro
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)

I may consider trades for other custom folders or balis 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!
