My tastes have evolved away from tactical fixed blades so have decided to put these Newt Livesays up for sale.
NEWT LIVESAY AIR ASSAULT - available
NEWT LIVESAY 101ST AIRBORNE - available
AHTI VAARA SCANDI - SOLD
Newt Livesay makes outstanding knives with great ergonomics and superb differential heat treat (59-60RC edge, softer spine) – and you rarely see them for sale because guys hold onto them!! He is hard to get a hold off and he’s on the verge of retiring so I don’t expect to see much new stock in the future.
(Please note I live in Singapore so items will take about 2 weeks to reach you - all prices include tracked shipping)
101ST Airborne (TOP) MINT UNUSED, Newt Livesay Air Assault (below)
Belt sheath, LBE sheath
In sheaths
Handle close up (101st on top)
Blade tang stamp close ups (101st on Top)
NEWT LIVESAY AIR ASSAULT
A classic compact hard use clip point. Deep hollow grind which I reprofiled to a nice thin edge. No chips or edge damage.
Lightly used, never batoned. Tang stamp is marked “E” = 1999 manufacture.
Sheath is a foldover thin kydex type, set up for carry on vertical load bearing equipment (LBE) – I set it up for point down on the left side, so my right hand can access from reverse grip.
Price is $180 + 3% PayPal including free tracked shipping worldwide.

LIVESAY 101ST AIRBORNE SPECIFICATIONS
Model Number (140) OAL (12.0") Blade Steel 1095 carbon
Blade Length (7.0") Blade Thickness (.214") Handle Material Canvas Micarta

AHTI VAARA SOLD
This is a stout little bushcraft knive from Ahti (who make the Kellam Wild Finn line). It’s a great all rounder since the blade is “pointier” with more taper than a typical puukko.
The blade is about 3 5/8" (92 mm) long, .75" wide and .129" thick.
The handle is nicely contoured which locks your hand in the power grip, and chest grips. Handle is stained Artic Birch with medium grit finish. The 4 1/4" handle suit small or medium sized hands. If you have big mitts this isn’t the knife for you!
Sheath is good quality leather with a hard plastic insert for safety.
It’s unused, except that when I got it the tip was 0.5mm off so I used a bit of sandpaper on a mousepad to touch it lightly and you can see “scratches” in the polished bevel. But otherwise brand new!
It’s a scandi bevel with a micro convex bevel and you could even thin it down more. In it’s current form, it is extremely sharp but also durable.
Price is SOLD including shipping worldwide.
