I have the following set for sale.
Queen (DFC) Sway Back Jacks with FFG D2 wharncliffe blades. These were a special order for TC Collectible Cutlery. There were only 50 jacks produced in each cover material (Jigged Bone, Buffalo Horn and Walnut) for this run in 2015 (to the best of my knowledge). There is an anvil and lightning bolts etched on one side of the blade. Closed length is ~4 1/8 in. and blade length is ~3 3/8 in. The jacks have brass liners and pins with nickel silver bolsters and the Queen shield.
There are two jacks for sale: one with Buffalo Horn and one with Walnut. These were recently purchased from a fellow forum member who stated that they were LNIB. I have not carried them and only test cut one sheet of paper. The covers are well done and the horn is solid with no curling or shrinkage. There is a slight ding in the edge of one of the horn covers. The blades do not appear to have been sharpened. There are very light handling marks on the back springs and bolsters. There are rubs on one side of the Walnut Jack blade. The very tip of the Horn Jack blade has a rough spot (almost feels like a microscopic bend) that should go away with a good sharpening. Centering is slightly off on both and there is very slight side play on both which is only noticed if the blades are torqued laterally. Walk and talk is pretty good with half stops. Pull and snap are medium to strong. Each comes with box and paper wrap.
As is the case with many Queen models, these knives will benefit from an initial sharpening prior to use. The Walnut has a slightly uneven edge grind but is sharper than the Buffalo Horn. The Buffalo Horn has a straighter edge grind and it is not fully dull (just partially sharpened).
Price - $old (SOLD ONLY AS A SET)
The first "I'll take it" followed up by rapid payment (within 1 hour) will get the knives. I am not interested in trades at this time. Payment through PayPal, I'll cover the fees and shipping (USPS Priority Mail Flat Rate Box) to CONUS addresses only. I will not ship to NY addresses. Must be at least 18 years old and in compliance with all state and local laws to purchase these knives. I reserve the right to sell to whoever I would like.
Please PM me with any questions. Thanks for looking!
