OK here's the deal, i don't normally sell sub standard knives, I sold one once at a show when i was a new maker to a dealer who said he'd like to have it to carry.... a few hours later a guy came by my table to tell me how much he liked it (the dealer had sold it to him). so I swore off doing that and havent until now, I have this model 6 that just didnt come out as well as i'd like but it's still a good knife. All the flaws are cosmetic and somewhat minor (i'll list them below) and it would be easier to make a new knife than to try to fix the things i don't like about this one, it's just that i've already spent almost 2 days on it and it would be a waste to throw it in the scrap pile.
So here's what i'm going to do, I'm going to offer the knife for sale with no markings, as is at half price. No warranty except my word that if anything blatantly my fault happens mechanicly, i'll fix it. NOTE: the knife is mechanicly sound, blade centered and good lock up.
Specs;
Cosmetic problems - Blade grind and finish is not as clean as I like, jig bone is ground down so it's more smooth than it should be, gaps at the back of both scales and mildly sub standard fit and finish on bolsters.
Blade - 2.25 x .097 CPM154
Bolsters - polished 440C
Scales - Honey jig bone
Liners - Titanium, .063
O.A.L. - 5 - 5/8
Backspacer - Carbon fiber
Other - 1/8 barrel pivot w/IKBS
SOLD Price - $200 shipped (Cont. U.S.)
