FIDDLEBACK - Three-Finger Joe and KPH in Malle Fruit burl
I've recently purchased a couple of long-awaited pieces for my collection, It's been an expensive month, so it's time to "pay the piper" and trim down my collection.
I am selling all knives for less than the makers prices. Please feel free to contact me with questions, post questions here or send requests for additional photos.
Two fiddlebacks for sale today.
1) Three Finger Joe - SOLD
- wearing black linen micarta scales with natural pins and bullseye tube filler.
- Kydex pocket/neck sheath
- 6" OAL
- 5/32 A2 tool steel.
- spalted finish on flats, satin blade finish.
- Very light kydex rub on blade, It's so light I couldn't get a picture of it, but it is there.
- Please put this blade to work. I bought it to carry and just never do. It needs a good home with someone who will feed it and take it for a walk.
$SOLD shipped. Paypal (kentbell -at- twobytwelve -dot- com) or trade (see end of post).
First to say "I'll Take It" in this thread, gets the knife.
2) KPH
- wearing stabilized Malle Fruit burl with black micarta pins and bullseye Lanyard hole/tube.
- 7 7/8" OAL
- 3 5/8" tip to handle.
- 5/32" thick spalted 01 steel.
- Original edge, HAIR POPPING SHARP.
- symmetrical JRE sheath for edge forward or edge back carry, left handed or right handed.
A pal cut an apple with this knife and I wasn't quick enough to wipe it down and it got a spot of patina, rather than remove the spot, I thought I'd try my hand at blending it in, so I got out some seeded brown mustard and gave it a mustard finish. I really like how it turned out, It matches the look of the burl handle quite nicely. The edge has only cut that apple. No other use.

TRADES: Actively looking for an original Kershaw Volt or Volt Blem. Also looking for an LE Speedform. Also looking for large Matt Baileys of yesteryear, Phillip Patton Fighters or daggers or larger blades from Fiddleback Forge, value to be determined on a per-case basis. Will certainly work out a deal (knives plus cash) for an RJ Martin or a Darrel Ralph, especially "carry/users" by either maker.
