Bobby Toole Zulu - SOLD
This Zulu has been carried in a leather slip and used lightly. It features a CPM 154 blade with a hand-rubbed satin finish. The handle is vintage crosscut micarta and is 3 11/16" closed. It has a half stop, a medium pull, 6-7, with delightfully snappy action, and exceptional walk and talk. Opening and closing this knife is a real pleasure. There are some scuff marks on the spine of the handle near the bolsters that were there when I received the knife. It comes in a zippered pouch with COA.
Hiroaki Ohta Stag Gunstock - WITHDRAWN
I just received this in a trade, and while it is super nice, I just am not a stag guy. The blade is ATS-34 with a satin finish. The original owner had it sharpened professionally by Enrique Pena since it was dull when he received it new from KnifeArt. There is a small dull spot towards the tip of the blade, but it is so minute that I am unable to capture it in pictures and honestly didn't even notice it until it was pointed out to me. The handle has stag covers with polished bolsters and tail caps and is 3 3/4" closed. Walk and talk is excellent with nice snappy action with a strongish pull, maybe 7-8. Any dark areas on the blade or bolsters in the pictures are reflections. Overall, this is very well done but just isn't for me, so off it goes. It comes in one of Ohta's leather slips.
Timothy La Combre Ti Slipjoint - $175
For those who are not familiar, Tim is a South African knife and pen maker that puts out some really cool stuff at very reasonable prices. This knife has been carried in a leather slip but has not cut anything or been sharpened. It is 3.5" closed with contoured satin titanium covers, an RWL-34 blade with a hand-rubbed satin finish, and has a strong, 8-9, pull that is very pinchable. There are a few hairline scuffs on the blade and handle that came from the maker.
