For sale is a Matt Bailey Pocket Fixed Blade (PFB) with 1/2 cocobolo 1/2 micarta scales. It comes with Matt's RH pocket carry sheath (can also be worn IWB). This knife is unused and uncarried, although it has been handled and sheathed. It is a truly spectacular knife! Below is the description from the maker:
forged this from Aldo's W2 and clay coated it for a hamon. The tang is also slightly tapered as a result of the forging.
The handle is black linen micarta and cocobolo. It is held in place with G-flex epoxy and peened pins. I have had to remove a set of scales that were fastened with peened pins, and it took a lot of work with a hammer and chisel. The handle is also sculpted for a nice comfortable grip.
The sheath is my PFB design. I made it to clip in the right hand pocket. It is hand tooled leather from Wickett and Craig and is also lined with upholstery leather. The knife slides in nice and snugly.
Dimensions
Blade - 3 5/8" tip to handle
OAL - 7 1/2"
