Mike Zscherny 3/4 Remington 1306 Lockback
This 3/4 1306 in beautiful red stag came to me directly from the maker via Richard Staebler at R&M Custom Knives and is in near mint condition. I carried this in a leather slip once or twice and cut some tape, and the only signs of use are a few, very hard to find hairline handling marks on the bolster and shield. In the hand it looks like new. 2.75” blade length, 3.75 closed, 6.5”’ overall, and 0.08” blade thickness at the ricasso. It features a slicey, thin, hand-rubbed blade in CPM-154 and stainless bolsters and shield(pinned). The stag covers are nicely-matched and figured, and feature a uniquely deep red coloring. The fit and finish is very excellent, but this knife has a few minor flaws that are reflected in the price. The blade sits just slightly to the left in the closed position, and although the blade has no side to side play, it has minor lock rock in the up-down direction that is only barely perceptible when I test it by applying pressure with my fingers (but it would be indiscernible in use). Very smooth action and nice snap on closing. Comes with a generic taco-style pouch. Asking well-below retail.
$1150- $1050
Bruce Barnett Saddlehorn Lockback
This Saddlehorn Lockback from Australian knifemaker and slipjoint cartel member Bruce Barnett features beautifully figured and stabilized Black Mulga covers and an eye-catching ladder damascus blade that Bruce made himself using 1084 and 15n20. 2.94” blade, 3.875” closed, 6.75” overall, and 0.09” blade thickness at the ricasso. I purchased this new from Blade Gallery and it was originally made for the 2021 Adelaide Knife Show. I have handled this a number of times but never cut/carried, and it is only showing some minor hairline handling marks. The stainless liners are jewel polished in the interior and fileworked. The bolster and cap are integral to the liners, and the covers are secured with hand-domed pins. The Saddlehorn pattern works well to complement the swirl of the burl covers and the well-defined lines of the damascus blade. It is a piece of art as much as a functional tool, but a bit too fancy for me and that is why I am passing it along. Top notch fit and finish, smooth and decisive walk and talk, and solid lockup with no play. Blade centered. Comes with a custom embroidered pouch and COA. Asking well below retail.
$715 $675
