For your consideration is this old-school Mel Pardue Kris marked "05". 3 1/4" blade which shows no sign of use...I have owned this for 19 years. It has been a safe queen during that time. There are very light scuffs on the bolsters which could be polished out...no other flaws that I can see. The action is smooth and the lockup solid. The tip favors the "Pardue" side of the blade but no rubbing. Scales look like jigged bone to me. A fine early piece from an icon of custom knifemakers for a serious collector. I've been advised to auction this on fleabay but I prefer to deal with BF members. 600.00 OBO PP and CONUS only shipped USPS Priority insured. International sales considered but buyer pays shipping and insurance if desired, and accepts risk once I have delivered the item to the shipper. I reserve the right to sell or refuse sale to anyone. An "I'll take it post" must be followed by prompt PM and payment.
