Up for tonight:

Peter Rassenti One-Off Custom Snafu w/ Nichols Lizard Skin Damascus & Stonewashed, blasted and darkened Ti “Desert Floor” patterned integral frame.

Sadly, This is a catch and release for me. Wanted a Rassenti Custom for quite some time now and finally got one. This specific Rassenti Snafu specimen is truly special.

From the way the light plays with the Nichols Lizard Skin Damascus (see video!) to the unique desert floor pattern, or sharp contrasting zirc collar and hand rubbed clip, this piece of functional art is sure to improve any collector’s armament.

The problem is I now have a shot at a SBD Nadeau Custom or this would never be up on the block! Brian is my favorite maker, so a sacrifice must be made and this is the fastest way.

If you have viewed my recent “FUND MY GRAIL SALE”’s you will see I gave up a substantial chunk of premium cutlery to get this. Now the WHALE GRAIL calls! That is the Knife Life!

Knife will be shipped buyer’s choice via UPS, Fedex or USPS fully insured for purchase price. Item will ship out within one business day of closing.

Payment via Paypal F&F, Zelle or Cashapp

References available as I have done many transactions on BF in the past few months and any buyer can tell you of their smooth and easy purchase experience. I package my knives with the utmost care.

I am pricing this at a loss to me to move quickly as time is of the essence. Price below. Please read the entire specs and details list below.

Specs & Details:

• Chad Nichols Lizard Skin Damascus compound ground 3.75” Fullered Snafu Blade
• Desert Floor Titanium Integral Frame (smooth to the touch, wonderful finish on scale face)
• Zirconium Pivot Collar & Milled Clip w/ Hand Rubbed Finish (no visible marks)
• Running on bearings. Vicious flipping and spidey flick action via the fuller. Glides shut with the slightest encouragement
• External stop pin can double as a thumbstud for slow roll deployment (takes a few tries to get the geometry down). Also bears the cracked desert floor theme on the stud. Great detail!
• Blade is centered and has good seating
• There is some intermittent lock stick, as many customs have with no LBI.

Previous owner stated you could sent it in to Rassenti for spa treatment / lockstick service.

*Degree of stick depends how hard blade is deployed. Carbidizing the lockface should do the trick.

• No visible scratches or trails on frame or blade + previous owner states edge is original per Rassenti
• Comes with pouch. No papers as Rassenti does not do birth certs or coa’s based on what i saw him message previous owner on iG.
• Rassenti insignia on lock bar relief cutout
• OVERALL EXCELLENT CONDITION
• Previous owner purchased this as part of a customs lot at a knife show. Truly a unique and masterful display of custom knifemaking talent.

ASKING ONLY $2650 - you will see plane jane versions going for not too much less on AZCK

Please be 100% sure you are prepared to purchase, as prompt payment is expected.

Please PM or text me with any questions. My cell is: (Three Zero Five) 761.2770.

Thank you for stopping by and I know this functional piece of art will find a proper home on BF. Have a blessed day.
