this is 1 of the first 5 knives I made back in 1993 . My wife has always wanted to keep it so it has been sitting in our safe or book case until now . Well we are down sizing our belongings and this is one of the items to go . I rebuffed and polished the whole knife , it does have a few tiny pits in the steel that can be seen in certain light from sitting around for so long . I also put a nice new sharp edge on it .

This was hollow ground from O-1 Steel , it was Heat treated by Paul Bos back when he was still in El Cajon to an Rc 59 .

It is 8-1/2" overall in length . Nickle silver bolsters , brass finger guard . Ebony and stag for the handle with a red spacer between the two . Brass pommel and acorn nut .

Stand is Black Walnut

Asking $135.00 shipped in the USA . Pay pal , postal M/O . or check held to clear . My PP is sandlot@charter.net

Thank you for looking .
