I'm back from SEKS as you can see. Brother Fred mending very nicely and should be back to work next month. My old pals are like me -- wearing out but still here. Very nice visit. Nothing much better than visiting with friends of 60 years. But back to business.

BirGorkha, as usual, got confused and ran a Sarge run which we didn't need. All made by Bura who is doing very good work these days and checking it! We have a dozen of these Sarge models available, 6 USA antler handles, and 6 Nepali buffalo horn handles. Scabbards are very good and all are as shown.

These Sarge models are 7.5 inches give or take a quarter and weigh in at 3 oz. give or take a quarter. Fit and finish are 10/10. Hardness is where it should be. Good and sharp both top and bottom. Overall an excellent little rig which will make a great stocking stuffer.

We're going to sell these for $39 each delivered to your door -- good price for such a great little knife.

Get yours by emailing me. We'll get them shipped today or tomorrow.
 
FROM A PREVIOUS POST LONG AGO.

HOWEVER, I PROMISE not to become a shark and try for anymore. Sweet little knife! Although a wood handled one would be nice, NO NO NO. I promised and I keep my promises. "A man is only as good as his word


My Gemini twins are currently arguing. The good one must win, must win, must win.

The antler handled one does not appear to have a double edge, as opposed to the horn handle. Is it my eyes?
 
Good to have you back, Bill.

I'm getting one of these guys in antler. I have a wood-handled version that I like a lot.
 
"I wasn't going to review the knife at all, since I didn't want to distress Bill M., but having used it, I changed my mind.

It worked wonderfully. It is almost the perfect size, holds an edge throughout skinning a fairly large deer and quartering, as well as taking out the backstraps, and dis-jointing the legs.

The deer was still slightly warm, so skinning was not at its worst condition, but the knife performed to the extent that it surprised me. It enabled me to separate skin and muscle and fat with ease, and with long sweeping slices. It worked without wobble or endangering slices through the hide.

I needed the point to penetrate the hide for the first cuts and the legs and neck cuts to skin the hide off. It worked fairly well.

The point was designed to fit in joints to spread them AND cut to drop the legs and make it easier for processing. The blade cut through tendons and ligaments, cartilege and fat with almost equal dexterity. It did not need sharpening after all the work.

So...the blade works fine with some modifications, the hilt was much appreciated when I was forcing the blade into joints, the sheath is pretty but might be switched to a different format, and the wood handles FOR SURE need to be made much larger, in my opinion.

It is not an attention-getting knife, so for EDC use, it might be perfect with some small changes."


and I mighta ordered more. Maybe. Not saying. But I mighta.


Be well and safe.

Welcome back, Bill

I "think" it's an optical illusion. Played with the pic in photoshop, and it "seems" to have a false edge.

Very sweet little knives.

Awesome Deal!!

I would love to get one, but don't have the cash. Anyone want a Custom Leather sheath or two? I am willing to trade. :)
