Kershaw Junkyard Dog II - Titanium Handle and SG2 Blade - 1725SG2

[RamZar]

I understand that about 1,000 of these limited edition JD2 knives were made.

Quite a looker. Please post your pictures.

All the same?

Was the blade considered a composite?

What were OTD prices back then and what's a reasonable price now?

SG2 is plain edge blade that is made of 410 steel with a SG2 laminate

 

[Steel130]

SG2 is plain edge blade that is made of 410 steel with a SG2 laminate

I think it is the other way around isn't it? SG2 being the steel sandwiched inbetween the 410?

^^^ This is correct.

[TotalDbag]

Oh, man.

They sold for $120 to $150 range in 2008. The last one sold on ebay for $295. It had a 2.2 composite not the SG2 blade. A NIB one sold on here in 2011 for $200.

LOL, been there done that

I love mine, too scared to carry it

 

[nwmetalbug]

Bought mine to use. Carries great even with the goofy clip. Takes and holds a scary sharp edge. Really nice in pocket if you reach in pocket it doesnt eat you're hand.

I bought this one and a few others years ago. I don't think I paid more than $130 for any of them. I had all of them fitted for deep carry tip up clips from STR. I ended up selling two and sending this one to Brad Southard for an overhaul. IKBS was added to the pivot, an addition of a carbon fiber overlay as well as a carbon fiber backspacer, the handle was given an acid washed finish, and the blade was given a hand satin finish. It still has the deep carry tip up clip from STR.

I'll have to take a picture of my trio of JYD's. Two of them I sent to have reground by Tom Krein and are wicked slicers.

I carry this one nearly everyday hiking it cuts the briars off my paths with ease and always sharpens up quickly to a hair poppin edge.

Definately a user. Looks great! Too bad I knew nothing about these until recently. Dang.

Hands down my favorite Kershaw. It consistently knocks my Paramilitary II out of my pocket.

Tony, yours is friggin gorgeous

 

[RamZar]

I've searched around the past day or so for one of these Junkyard Dog II 1725SG2 knives but none can be found. I guess most who have one are using and loving them. There are perhaps others who want to hang on to them until they appreciate more in price.

I've seen a few variations but could not quite figure them out. One style has a army symbol on the steel handle but the blade looks different than the ones with the black g10 handle?

Maybe some information can be found out in this thread.
