Camp Bolo by Jerry Hossom

Blade length, handle-to-tip--8 inches
Overall length--13.50”
154CM steel, 3/16” stock, variable hollow and “saber reflex” grinds, convex edge
Green canvas micarta slabs, deeply contoured, with brass tube fasteners.

This was an experimental one-of-a-kind, variable-edge camp bolo by Jerry Hossom. This knife is unmarked as it was a test model (does not have “Hossom” or any other mark anywhere on the knife). It has been tested and the results posted a few years ago in the Knife Reviews and Testing forum. The knife was returned to Jerry to have the point reground and to re-sharpen the edge. It has not been used since I received it back from Jerry. Here’s a link to a follow-up thread with additional photos as well as a link to the original review explaining the experimental "variable edge":

Comes with an olive-green cordura sheath with kydex insert. This sheath was not made for the knife, but it is a good fit.

$500.00 shipped in USA, money orders only.
$450.00 shipped.
$395 shipped - KNIFE IS SOLD
 
I guess everybody knows Jerry has quit making knives indefinitely.

What do YOU think a one-of-a-kind Hossom exclusive is worth?

How about $395 shipped?
 
Will can you take paypal if so I will take it.... If not lets work something out and I will find another way.
 
That knife is definatly worth at least $500, probably really more like $800. Someone pick this baby up! I'm so tempted, but I'm also out of spare money.

Hi guys,

I was really trying fit this knife in with the bills this month and was going to add it to my credit card. Bad fiancial move but this is such a good buy!!

In the end I could just not work out a way to pay for it this month so I relase my interests. Will was willing to work with me, and this dealing not working out is totally due to problems on my side.

So Will here is your free BTT and sorry to have wasted your time. I really wish I could get this one.

Guys as you all know Will is a great guy, selling great knives.
 
No problem, Jim. Had 'em standing in line for this one.

Knife is sold pending funds.

Thanks to all,
Will
