Here are four handmade fixed-blade THK knives. Each is 100% hand-ground, assembled, finished and sharpened by yours truly. I warranty all my work against defects in materials and craftsmanship.
All knives except the SideKick have stainless-steel Corby bolts and lanyard tubes.
All sheaths are 100% handmade by my wife Angie and I, using 8-9-oz. vegetable-tanned leather with fully welted and hand-saddle-stitched construction, and are individually wet-formed to their knife. We seal our sheaths with gum tragacanth and neatsfoot oil, allowing for a durable and weather-resistant sheath that can still breathe.
All HT done by Peters' Heat-Treating - the best in the business. Every knife shown here has been Rockwell tested right at 58Rc - a hardness that allows for an excellent balance of edge-holding,
toughness and sharpenability.
Enough talk, let's see the knives!
Still available! Mini-Bowie in O1 tool steel and OD green G10
Full-flat grind, tapered tang, .022" black G10 liners
4" blade, 1.25" at widest point
8.1875" overall
.118" at the spine, full distal taper
.020" behind the edge
OD green G10 scales, black sheath
800-grit hand-rubbed finish
weight: 4.3 oz. (6.8 oz. w/sheath)
$160 shipped to your door
SOLD Mini-Bowie in O1 tool steel and highly-figured walnut with hand-rubbed oil finish. This was a custom order, but unfortunately the client ran into some tough times and was unable to complete the deal. His loss is your gain! I only have a few blocks of this remarkable wood, and I reserve them for special projects.
Full-flat grind, straight tang
3.75" blade, 1.25" at widest point
8.175" overall
.100" at the spine with distal taper and fully-sharpened clip; .011" behind the edge - this blade is a vicious slicer!
Missouri crotch walnut scales (I purchased this extraordinarily-beautiful wood from renowned MasterSmith Don Hanson III) .022" black G10 liners, brown sheath
1500-grit hand-rubbed finish
weight: 4.0 oz. (5.8 oz. w/sheath)
$180 shipped to your door SOLD Thank you!
Still available! SideKick in CPM-154 with stabilized red-dyed maple scales, nickel/silver pins and a mosaic pin. Custom features in an elegant yet affordable and hard-working knife you can carry and use with confidence in the woods, on the streets or in the boardroom.
Mild-convex grind, tapered tang
3.5" blade, 1" at widest point
8" overall
.100" at the spine, .035" behind the edge - a light, handy knife with a durable edge
Red stabilized maple burl, N/S and mosaic pin, brown sheath
2000-grit hand-rubbed "silk polish" - nearly a mirror. You could read the fine print on a credit application in the reflection on this blade ;p

$160 shipped to your door
SOLD Medium Bushcrafter in O1 tool steel and green G10
Mild-convex grind, tapered tang
4.1875" blade, 1.0625" at widest point
8.5" overall
.075" at the spine, .010" behind the edge - this thing is built to slice! We're talking about wood-shavings you can see through.

weight: 3.8 oz. (5.9 oz. w/sheath)
$140 shipped to your door SOLD Thank you!
All prices shown include USPS insured Priority Shipping with delivery confirmation to any address in the US. Should you choose to purchase more than one, subtract $10 per additional knife off the total - I can insure and ship two knives for nearly the same cost as one, and I'll be glad to pass the savings on to you. International orders may entail additional costs and paperwork... please contact me for details.
I prefer PayPal, but also gladly accept money orders and business/personal checks. There is never any extra fee for using PP when dealing with me! MO orders ship on receipt, orders paid by check ship when the check clears.
Thank you for looking! I sincerely appreciate your support.
All the Best,
James
