I can never own a knife like above. I would drool all over it and make it rust.

Benchmade Proper clippoint. Feels good in the hand, but prefer my GEC Sudbuster in micarta more due to more features - heard these were being discontinued and didn't want to miss out.



Civivi Savant frame lock with G10 and CF scales and 3.5" Damascus blade. It doesn't look too threatening, although a little long for a gentleman's knife. The action and flipper work very well, and it feels like a quality knife worth more than it's under $100 price. Much easier to get open than that Maxace Black Mirror beauty that I just got, for almost half the price.

Just received these 2 custom autos made by Shawn Valloton (son of Butch and younger brother of Rainy) that I recently purchased off of the Exchange.

The knives are stunning to see and hold. I feel fortunate to be their caretaker for the time being.

My poor photos don't do them justice. There is a mirror gloss finish on both blades (and on the bolsters of the 1st) that is not shown in the photos. They also seem much larger in person than in the photos.

The 1st is called the "River Boat Gambler" -- a single action auto made w/Ti bolsters and liners and Ironwood scales. Blade length: 3 7/8" Blade steel type: unknown.

The 2nd is another unnamed single action auto w/a safety lock & a jeweled inner liner. Liner/blade steel unknown. Blade length: 4 1/4". Scales made of some type of beautifully grained wood.

------------------------------------

BTW, the logo on the blades reads:

Shawn Valloton
Left Hand Made

These knives are right-handed but Shawn apparently was left-handed and chose to make note of it in this manner.

------------------------------------

PS: The seller said they he showed/discussed these knives to/with Rainy Valloton at a recent show and suggested that I contact Rainy to see if he knows any more about the type of materials used to make them, which I plan to do shortly.

Always interesting to see knives with a back story like yours. Very nice pair.

Thanks ! Don't know yet, knife is still with the maker. Normally his handles are comfortable for me. We'll see ....
