Charlie..can I just pop in here and say something?
Dealing with waynorth was a totally positive experience, if anything I have learnt-that the blade forum here does have some absolute fantastic people here to talk to about knives, to learn about them, and share the .......... well, I guess .... "passion" would describe how we feel about knives.
I am starting to fall for the folders-which is very scary-as I know very little about this part of the knife world, and boy is there SO much more to learn in the folder world- which unfortunately involves HAVING TO LEARN about faking that is prolific in the folder world.
Folders are new to me, and to be honest fixed blades have always been "my cup of tea"...but when I saw this ( the MAHER & GROSH ) for sale..I liked the look of the jigged bone SO much I bought it, as stated I know little about folders/slipjoints ( whatever term is preferred ), BUT I did know that the knife looked well made.
The more I looked, the more I fell for this knife, but Charlie came along and slowly pried it from my grasp lol.
3 things that were 100% positive came from me buying this knife....
1, It helped me immensley in buying my type of dream knife, a genuine 1850's Sheffield knife - that still has lovely etching etc...( that will be posted on Bernards forum inside 2 days time ).
2, It came to be in Charlies hands-whos type of knife is the folder or slipjoint ( whatever happened to good old pocket knife? ).
3, I got to deal with yet another knife forum member, whom got a good buy, and I made a good sale- how good does it get?
p.s Another thing..the Maher & Grosh has definetly sparked something off in me about the folding knife world, so I am going to regularly buy my lotto tickets from now on.
