PRICE DROPS!
Hello Friends!!!
It has been a VERY long time since I've dabbled in the forums. Work, family, life changes, etc. You know the drill. I've missed the interactions here and I am sorry for my absence.
I'm sure we'll catch up in due time, but until then, I have a few beauties up for grabs that deserve a new home.

Pricing is based on PayPal F&F (I'm sure I still have some credibility here :)), USPS Priority Mail shipping within the CONUS. Please no trade offers.
**Please note: I have an extremely busy work schedule these days. I may not be able to respond to posts immediately, but will certainly get to them promptly.

Left to Right:
1. OG, and I mean OG Fiddleback Bushcrafter: 5/32" CPM SV35N with *Experimental Spalting (see below) Black burlap scales / Black Bolsters / Canvas Pins. (NEW) $425.00
* Apparently Andy's spalting technique did not take to stainless steel too well and this was one of his first attempts. This is some Fiddleback history for sure.
2. Drop Point Renegade: 1/8" A2 steel / Camelthorn Scales / Black Liners / White Pinstripes. (Slightly Used, no sign of wear) $275.00 > $255.00
* Camelthorn is pretty scarce from what I know. I also have a sheath for this one. It's included.
3. OS Ladyfinger: 3/32" A2 steel / Desert Ironwood / Black Liners / White Pinstripes. (NEW) $300.00 > $275.00
* The deeper belly of the OS Ladyfinger blade is definitely where it's at in my opinion. Probably my favorite OS model.
4. Hiking Buddy: 3/32" A2 steel / Curly Hawaiian Koa / Canvas Liners / White Pinstripes. (NEW) SOLD
* The chatoyance on this KOA is stellar. Definitely presentation grade.
5. Esquire: 1/8" A2 steel / Rosewood Burl / Black Liners / Blue Pinstripes. (lightly used, little sign of wear) $275.00 > $255.00

Thanks for looking!

I'll take #2 - Drop Point Renegade as per pm.

Thanks!
 
hi all.
i have a handful for sale. prices include USPS priority shipping (US only please).

From Top-Bottom in pictures....

Bushcrafter: $225 - African Blackwood over natural canvas liners w/ white pinstripes, SFT, convex on 1/8" spalted 01 steel. i have never used this one, but consider it used condition.

Recluse: $250 - I checked my feedback and my posts and i cannot find the specs on this one. obviously a beauty with some spalted wood handle with micarta bolster. not sure on steel. if i had to guess, i'd say O1. perhaps someone in the forum will recall it and can add info.

Hiking Buddy: $200 - 1/8" 01 SFT, 'Tuxedo' Black w/ natural and white liners. thicker scales on this one. looks like i may have slipped while sharpening this one (careless). i'll try to get a picture of that.

Cohutta Kephart: $250 - 1/8" O1, 4" blade, 8.5" overall. curly maple over nat canvas and white pinstripe. Beauty. bought new from maker. i may have used this in the kitchen a couple times, and i may have carved a stick with it.

Cohutta Essential: $275 - 3/32 A2, ~ 3.5+" blade, 8" overall. ironwood over nat canvas with white pinstripe. another beauty! bought new from maker. i may have used this a couple times in the kitchen.

let me know if questions. thanks for looking.

EDIT: i noticed in the cohutta pics that there were a couple spots on the blades. i just confirmed. the essential might just wash off in soap and water and wipe. the kephart, if i were keeping, i’d just scotchbrite it clean. i’m not gona touch either, cuz i’m selling. but just wanted to mention.

EDIT2:
ohh yeah, i tried to get a pic of the whoopsie scratch on the hiking buddy. while i was at it, i added an in-hand pic to show the thicker scales. very comfy in hand (to me).

SOLD....

First these aren't made very often and this one is really special due to the mosaic pins. Andy hardly ever does this on his knives. One of the more comfortable handles that just melts in you hand. $sold shipped. Would trade for one in a wood or a Handyman in wood. users are perfectly good for me.

s: A2
t: 5/32" tapered tang
b: 3"
h: 4 3/8"
