Marlowe Bulldog. A poster once stated that he had yet to see a Marlowe that was not perfect in every way. This one is no exception.
3 1/4" ATS-34 blade. 7 1/4" overall opened length.
Titanium bolsters, green/black micarta handles.
Glassy smooth opening and rock solid lockup. Blade perfectly centered when closed.
The person I received this from told me this one was carried but never used to cut anything. I have never carried it, but did slice a piece of paper with it to ensure that it was still amazingly scary sharp!

Light marks on the Ti, one small light scuff on the pocket clip. I cannot find a single mark elsewhere.
Price is $1100 >> now $950 shipped. I cannot accept trades at this time.

Sweet Lightfoot model-- Catchdog.
3 7/8" blade of superb BG-42. Just under 9" overall opened length. Nice beefy blade design with swedge on one side.
Tan micarta handles and silver twill G10 bolsters.

This piece is incredibly smooth. Buttery smooth opening and rock solid lockup. Blade is centered when closed. Fit and finish is awesome.

MINT. Never used, carried, or re-sharpened.
Price is $400>> $375 $OLD shipped. I cannot accept trades at this time.

Sweet blade from Michael Burch. Japanese influenced tanto with slight recurve.
1095 steel with nice hamon. 4 3/8" blade measured from wrap, approximately 3 3/4" actual blade edge. 8 1/2" overall length.
Epoxy soaked wrap over rayskin. Skull menuki.

Nice blade and it carries very well. I have carried this one occasionally. It fits perfectly in a jacket pocket. I have not used it much at all and would rate it as excellent to near mint condition. Just a few light marks, mostly kydex marks.
Price is $165 $OLD shipped. I cannot accept trades at this time.

Ugh... I absolutely hate to let this one go.
Amazing large combat/utility blade from the Jones Brothers.
Blade is 1/4" hand rubbed D2, Paul Bos heat treated, DLC coated.
8 1/2" blade if measured from handle. 7 5/8" edge length. Overall length is 13 3/4". Top edge is sharpened 5 7/8". Top edge is scary sharp also-- I effortlessly sliced a sheet of paper right before taking these pics today.
Black linen micarta handles. Included is a little tool they made to allow you to remove the handles for cleaning. Skull crusher end.
Sheath is EOD Mod-01 from Frank Sigman: Drop leg belt loop extension, accessory pouch, and thigh straps.

Absolutely dead mint and fantastic fit and finish... Top notch package all around. Never used, carried, or re-sharpened.
Price is $435 shipped. I cannot accept trades at this time.
 
Original Devastator flipper. Has the thumbstud on the blade. Also has the striated blade.
Blade is 4 1/4" S30V. 9 1/2" overall opened length.
Black powder coated titanium handles. Linear carbon fiber overlays.

This one has been carried a bit, but I was assured it was hardly ever used. I tend to believe that as it still has that amazingly scary sharp edge RJ is so well known for.
There is some wear of the powder coating on the Ti from where it was carried, and some scratches on the clip.
This one flips perfectly. No wrist action needed.
**There is a tiny bit of front to back blade play. This can be easily fixed by RJ. I am unsure if it just needs the pivot tightened or the lock bar adjusted. I don't want to mess with the lock bar. I did attempt to tighten the pivot, but due to the design, I was not able to.
Other than what I have mentioned, this one is in excellent shape. I would probably rate the blade as near mint to possibly mint. Blade centering is just about perfect.

Considering the slight wear and blade play, this is priced accordingly at $365 $OLD shipped.

Thanks for looking at these. I am not in a position to accept trades. Feel free to email or PM me with questions/offers. *I will listen to reasonable offers!*
