I have a mint condition Kevin Wilkins Parforce liner lock folder with green G-10 handle scales and a handrubbed CPM 154 clip point blade for sale. Kevin is known for his fine craftsmanship in making some big, tough tactical/utility folder designs, but the Parforce is a nice departure from many of his other designs in that it makes a more carry-friendly EDC due to its smaller size. The green G-10 handle scale is dimpled on one side for added grip, and the custom pivot features an anti-rotation screw to prevent the blade from seizing up on the pivot.
I am the first owner of the Parforce listed here, and the knife has never been carried, used, or resharpened. Its original edge from Kevin is very sharp. The action is extremely smooth, one of the smoothest I have ever felt in a folder, and knife opens easily with a flick of the thumb. I uploaded a video here to demonstrate the action. The lock-up is rock solid as well.
***SOLD***
The specs:
Condition: Mint
Blade length: 3 1/4" from tip to handle
Overall length: 7 3/8"
Blade thickness: Just over 5/32" at ricasso
Blade material: CPM 154
Blade finish: Handrubbed
Edge: Plain
Handle scale material: Green G-10, dimpled on non-clip side
Lock: Titanium liner lock, satin finished and anodized blue
Backspacer: Black canvas micarta, raised and grooved
Clip: Tip up, stainless steel, satin finished
For payment on this piece, I can take USPS money orders and PayPal (add 3% to cover most of the PayPal fees). I can also take a personal check if I know you. If you are paying by PayPal, the payment has to be sent with a PayPal-confirmed address (including the green "confirmed" marker) listed in the invoice, and I will only ship to that PayPal-confirmed address. I reserve the right to wait for payments to clear before I ship.
I will consider trades (with appropriate cash adjustment) for custom folders and certain custom balis. I am especially interested in the following makers:
JL Williams
Charles Marlowe
Tim Galyean
Deryk Munroe
Jim Smyth
Kit Carson
Jim Burke
Gerry McGinnis
DB Fraley
Bob Lum
Mike Snody
Sal Manaro
Scott Cook
Ernie Emerson
Rick Hinderer
Matt Cucchiara
Todd Begg
Tom Mayo
Neil Blackwood
Ken Onion
Phil Boguszewski
Flavio Ikoma
I may consider trades for other custom folders or balis not listed above. However, I am not interested in serrated blades, production knives, or fixed blades other than those by John Young or Russ Andrews.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions. Thanks for looking!
