For sale are two Laci Szabo Narc Undercovers. The Narc Undercover has a 4” cutting edge with about a 4” handle. The total length is about 8.75” each. They are made from ATS-34 steel with Paul Bos HT (not stamped, Laci informed me of this when I bought them). They both have a bead-blasted finish. The handles are black(ish) canvas micarta.

The top knife shown has a 2” upper edge (sharp), an exposed lanyard hole, and is 3/16” thick. The bottom knife shown has a 2.25” upper edge (sharp), a lanyard hole through the handle material, and is 5/32” thick.

Both knives come with a kydex sheath. The bottom knife came with a metal ring through the kydex for attaching a belt loop. This ring rubbed on the micarta so I pried it off. I tried to photo this as best as possible – the sheath has no functional problems and the rub on the micarta is very slight.

Both of these knives have been used very lightly – cutting paper and such. I have touched up the edges on both, so there are some signs of that. Neither have any edge damage and all wear is purely cosmetic: light scratches on the blades and that’s it, other than what I mentioned above.

These knives sell on Laci’s site for $225 each, which is what I paid for them. I’m selling them for $100 each, including Paypal, CONUS shipping, and insurance. CONUS only and Paypal is preferred.

Next are two Laci Szabo designed, Fred Perrin produced Jaws I knives. They are hollow ground with a right chisel grind (top) and a left chisel grind (bottom). They are full tang with 5/32” thick blades made from an unknown carbon steel (I am assuming they are not stainless based on the forge marks). Handles are black canvas micarta. Both look like they have been used and show numerous scratches from their kydex sheaths. I don’t know what they were used on, as I have never used them but they have had at least one previous owner. I don’t see any chips, rolls, or dings in the edges.

The top knife has a straight cutting edge that’s just shy of 4”. The micarta is 4 1/8” long and the handle is about 3/8” thick at its center. Total length is about 8 7/8”. The top inch of the swedge is sharpened, although it needs a touch up (or can be left alone if you don’t want it sharper). The main edge is fairly sharp. Jimping on the spine is pretty shallow. The blade has numerous surface scratches from the kydex sheath and possibly from use.

The bottom knife has a slightly recurved cutting edge that’s about 4 1/8” long. The micarta is 3.75” long and the handle is about 9/16” thick with slight tapering at the top and bottom. Total length is about 8.75”. The swedge is not sharp. The main edge needs sharpening. Jimping is pretty aggressive and has a decorative look. The blade has numerous surface scratches from the kydex sheath and possibly from use.

Both knives come with pretty crude kydex sheaths, built by Fred Perrin. They hold the knives snugly but not too tight, so the only real thing to complain about is their look.

The price for one of these on Laci’s website is “$200 and up” and I bought them for about $110 or so each. I’m selling them for $70 each, including Paypal, CONUS shipping, and insurance. CONUS only and Paypal is preferred.

TexasRuby, I sent you an email. GRAIDED, please paypal the funds to me (my user name at gmail dot com) and I'll confirm payment and shipping.

Thanks you two, looks like three of these are SPF.
 
Hi,
if you wish to send a knife to France -and that would be really nice of you- i would be happy to take the remaining jaws, the one on top.
 
Hi GRAIDED, I haven't received any communication from you. Not sure what's going on, but I cannot email or PM you. You can email me at capitalizedliving at gmail dot com and we'll go from there.

TexasRuby, you're next in line and your Narc is shipping out today. Thanks!
