Hi Fellas:
I'm kidding in the title - your money is good even if you don't own a John Deere - however, the new owner of this knife may want to go out and buy a John Deere to match it. I was fortunate enough to talk Butch Harner of Harner Knives into selling me one of his fine sets of canvas rag micarta scale sets.....this pattern is John Deere Crush and the quality of this canvas micarta is superb.....it's handmade and he knows what he's doing. I became interested in rag micarta after I saw an $8,000 Loveless Dropped Hunter for sale with rag micarta scales......beautiful stuff but no longer commercially made. The nicely matching .060" yellow/black triple liners are from the renowned knife and tomahawk maker R.W. Wilson. I was in his shop about three months ago - what an operation. I took some of the belly out of this blade so it is easier to open up smaller game or perform Al Qaeda and Taliban castrations with this model. I hope you like it! $190 delivered USPS Priority mail/insured ConUS.....no international sales on this one please. The first "I'll take it" gets it. Paypal preferred but I'll take MOs from BF community members with good feedback ratings. Please PM me for Paypal information.
Best regards,
TK
3/16" O-1 stock
HT to Rc 60-61
OAL 9"
Blade length 4 3/4" hollow ground
Thumb grooved spine
John Deere Crush canvas micarta scales
Fine Scotchbrite belt satin finish
Brass furniture
Yellow/black liners on tapered tang
9-10 oz hand-stitched leather sheath
