Garssonizing means to tinker with/change the knife. Because I have done this, the prices will reflect "used" prices, even though the knives are in new condition.
Tom Ferry Mosaic Damascus Fighter
Stock thickness is 3/16"
Blade length is 5 3/4"
OAL is 10 3/4"
Stainless steel frame and ferrule are engraved, handle is figured African Blackwood.
The damascus guard has been thinned down 1/2" on each side and re-etched. No one has been able to spot the re-etch, and many knifemakers have seen this knife.
Sheath is tooled black cowhide with a black sharkskin throat and tip by Paul Long
False edge is not sharp.
Price is $1,650.00 $1,500.00

I thinned the swell on the handle butt on this one, here is an "before" picture by Burt:

Here is the after, Lousy picture is my fault, knife looks awesome:

None of the knives listed here have ever been carried, used, or re-sharpened, and the original edges are very sharp, unless otherwise stated. All knives pictured will include some sort of storage case
All prices include Priority Mail shipping, insurance, and delivery confirmation within the continental US, only, and I only ship within CONIS. No trades please. All local laws must be observed, no sales to persons under 18 years of age. Payment terms are U.S. Postal Money order, if I don't know you, or personal check, if I do.
