Whitewing lockback stag folder made by Mastersmith Bailey Bradshaw, with Gary Graley leather belt sheath. Gary personally removed the Whitewing logo from the blade and in the process applied a beautiful satin finish—professional in every way. The stag is gorgeous, though it's hard to tell from the photo. The steel is CPM 3V, the grind is very thin, and the cutting action is very aggressive. This knife has been carried and used lightly, although you would be hard-pressed to tell by looking at it. Lockup is rock solid. $300.00 SOLD

Eagle Wing David Boye folder in Boye Dendritic Steel. This knife was sent back to David and he personally applied African blackwood scales to both sides of the knife. No clip and nothing showing through the scales other than the pivot pin. This knife has been carried and lightly used, but has been well-cared for and is in excellent condition. Solid lockback. $75.00 SOLD

Survival/rescue knife from David Boye in his Boye Dendritic Cobalt. Stainless clip and bail, synthetic yellow handles, solid lockback. The blade is all-serrated. Very light use—no blemishes. $75.00 SOLD

Bone-handled slipjoint from old time Texas maker Clyde Fischer. Jerry Fisk collects Clyde Fischer knives. Clyde was one of the founding members of the Knife Maker’s Guild. This knife features an edge-quenched, mirror-polished blade of L6, Clyde’s trademark steel. The liners and scales have separated at the back end of the knife and it is in need of repair (see closeup of damage). I’m offering it here in case someone would like to restore it. Clyde passed away in 2001. $35.00 SOLD

All prices include shipping in USA, money orders only.
 
Will: You have great taste in knives. Every time I see you have one to sell, I can almost always count on liking it. I am hoping that someone buys your current offerings this weekend so I won't be tempted on Monday! Jeff

Thanks Jim! I appreciate the endorsement, and just for that why not let me make you a deal on that Tony Bose I have listed for sale in another thread? LOL

Here are a couple more pictures of the Bradshaw lockback--the only one left for sale on this thread. Actually, I think it's the sleeper deal of them all--a CPM3V blade, solid lockback construction, killer stag, from one of the great Master Smiths, with a hand-made leather sheath, all for $300 shipped? Get real... :D
 
I'll concurr, nice knife, very very sharp blade, thin edged with that 3v steel in
there! and the sheath, retains the knife securely, it will go into the sheath
pivot down though, as you can just make out how the lines of the leather are
formed to contour to the shape of the handle down to the bolster at the bottom.
And yep, that is a very good price on a knife that is no longer made!

Thanks, Gary. Super workmanship on the sheath--as always.

Here's a pic of the knife in sheath, as Gary was describing. The knife seats into the sheath with that satisfying custom "snap", and is held very securely at the ready:
 
If the Bradshaw/Whitewing lockback is still available I will take it.


Please check your email.
 
No worries, Jim. I'm fresh out.

...except for the Shadley, the Bose and the Watts I have for sale on those other threads, of course. ;)

Thanks to all,
Will
