Well, in my continuing quest to get some $ together, here is an incredible knife, and an incredible buy.
John Young was taught by the man himself, Steve Johnson, and John's workmanship is literally as good as it gets, much like his teacher, every joint seamless, the best materials, classic loveless designs executed perfectly, again, much like his teacher. Except, unlike his teacher, his prices are extremely low for the quality. (Right now)
Anyway, this is a 4" perfectly ground D/E dirk, with killer pearl, flush stainless pins, mirror polished ATS-34 blade that is razor sharp on both edges, excellent sheath, made by SRJ's sheath maker. The seam where the blade enters the guard is flawless and seamless, it's uncanny, his stuff is the ****. (Don't feel too badly for me, I'll still have 3 of his knives left.
)
If this knife said "Johnson" or "Loveless" on it, you'd pay $2000+, but, it says "Young", and is priced at $750, which is exactly what I paid for it new just a few months ago.
I will sell this amazingly perfect and gorgeous knife, because I must raise funds, for $495 shipped, insured, 2 day mail!
Knife-Art posted a bunch of John's knives today, in minutes, several were sold, John is, without a doubt on his way up, everybody who has seen his work in person is amazed at the quality, there is NO way you could ever lose $$$ on this knife, and in all liklihood, this is that rare instance where you stand to make some. I need cash quickly, so I offer it here at a truly lowball price, which is firm, and no trades.
So, first to email and say the magic words: "I'll take it" gets this amazing knife at an equally amazing price.
Thanks for looking.
