Selling three incredible EDCs and a drop dead gorgeous LT Wright today! Sorry, no trades at this time!
1. Fiddleback Forge Pocket Kephart with Diomedes pocket sheath. The blade has box elder burl scales, black liners w/ orange pinstripes, skeletonized full tang, convex on spalted 3/32” A2.
The Pocket Kephart is in basically new condition. I have carried and used it lightly a couple of times to open packages, but you wouldn't know from looking at it. The sheath is in great shape. You can see there is a little nick on the top outer lip, but obviously nothing that impedes function in any way. I thought this was going to be my forever rig for EDC, but by chance acquired something else that is not as nice-looking, but works a little better for me, personally.
$250 TYD (well below what I paid for the two combined!)
Let's try SOLD
2. Next is a wharncliffe neck knife by Master Bladesmith Murray Carter. It's an older knife which was made when Murray was living in Japan. You can see from the maker's mark that it doesn't look like anything Carter Cutlery sells these days, which makes this all the more cool and collectible. The sheath is a Hale Storm custom with a concho added by the original owner, Gary Graley, from whom I bought this earlier this year.
Features Murray's signature san mai constructed blade with a core of Hatachi white steel. The blade is about 3.4" long, while the ironwood scaled handle is about 3.5" long. These days Murray refers to this model as a Wharncliffe Brute. It's an extremely utilitarian knife to carry and use, with an awesome saber grind that is used, but still in excellent and sharp condition and will easily take a hair-splitting edge.
Please note: one of the handle slabs has a scratch on it at the pin. I would classify this as a scratch, not a crack, as it does not go to the blank, but I'm not sure where it's a matter of semantics when it comes to these things, so be aware that this blemish is present, though it won't impede the functionality of the blade. I do not believe it compromises the structure of the scale, but I can treat it with some water-thin cyanoacrylate adhesive to be on the safe side if you would like.
I'm selling this for a little over half the price you would pay to order one of these new from Murray.
$300 TYD
How about SOLD
3. Bradford USA Guardian 3 with M390 steel, Carbon Fiber scales, full-height flat grind, Nimbus finish, black oxide fasteners and two sheaths: the original vertical carry leather sheath (not pictured) and the pictured custom AzWelke carbon fiber patterned kydex sheath you see here. This knife is in like new condition. I have used it to open a few packages, but it's still razor sharp. The knife alone, when purchased new from the Bradford website will cost you $209 alone, (when you can actually get this configuration, which is rare) and the custom kydex sheath is valued at around $40. I am offering it here for a big discount.
$175 TYD
Can't beat this offer: $160 TYD!
4. LT Wright GNS in 3V steel with scandi-grind, Desert Ironwood scales and mosaic pins. Comes with a wet-formed JRE Industries sheath. Seeing is believing; have a look at the beautiful Desert Ironwood burl on this one. It's been used once or twice, but it's still in excellent condition. I have owned it twice, and I really want to keep it, so you should all feel free to not buy it.
Seriously though, this is just a killer blade from LT Wright.
$230 TYD
I'm shocked this had no takers the first time out--I am lowering the asking price to SOLD
