Perceval Le Francais & GEC 78 (both sold)

[JTB_5]

LNIT 78 Cocobolo (Tidioute trim). I'm the second owner, but the knife shows no signs of use. It has great action, very nice grain, perfect centering, and clean bolsters. I love the snap on these blades as well as the thin profile, but I'm just not into the spear point and I'd rather move this one along to make room for another. I'm asking what I have in the knife and enough to cover fees & shipping in a flat rate box. SOLD, thanks dyavorsky and Blade Forums

I accept Paypal G&S, or F&F if you prefer. First "I'll take it" in the thread or PM gets it.

Also up for sale is this Perceval Le Francais in juniper wood. I have two of these and had been saving one, but it is time to move it along. It has some light use and has been sharpened. There are some scratches on the blade, but they are faint. The action on the knife is buttery smooth and I've kept the pivot well oiled. The knife has open construction and is a liner lock. Although it has modern styling, I think it fits best as a traditional knife because of its materials and pattern. Mods, let me know if you disagree and I need to move it. Here is information from Perceval on the dimensions:

Dimensions: 199 mm x 17 mm x 12 mm
Weight : 70g
Assembled with beryllium copper washers.

Blade:
Dimensions: 90 mm x 17 mm x 2,5 mm
Semi-stainless steel 19C27 (Sandvik) - cryogenic treatment

Slow-ground and polished using traditional techniques with scoured buffalo leather.

Handle:
Dimensions: 109 mm x 17 mm x 12 mm
Material: Juniper

1. Brand new and shipped to the US from overseas this knife costs about $200 (give or take Euro to USD exchange rate). Mine is lightly used, so I'm asking SOLD ($160) shipped in a flat rate box with fees included.

I accept Paypal G&S, or F&F if you prefer. The first "I'll take it" in the thread or PM gets it.
