**$600 or make me an offer...the first reasonable one through the door will be accepted***
REPOST:
Up for sale today from my collection is a beautiful Kirby Lambert dress tactical wharncliffe. I purchased this knife in this forum back in 2011. I've used it to open boxes and letters intermittently since then but otherwise it has sat in the safe. It has not seen any heavy use.
Functionally it is near perfect...the blade is dead-center, the lockup is rock solid, the edge is clean, the bearing is smooth and the clip is unbent. I have not sharpened it and I don't believe the previous owner did either - I would bet the current edge is the one put on it by Mr. Lambert himself some years ago.
Cosmetically there are few dings, scuffs and scratches. If you are looking for a cosmetically perfect knife this is not the one for you. This knife is a showpiece but it is a showpiece that has been used, albeit lovingly. Hopefully the true condition of the knife is visible in the attached photos (I bumped up the exposure so details would be extra visible). Please don't hesitate to ask if you would like to see a video, I'm happy to send one along.
Specifications are as follows:
>> 3.25" 154CM blade (the finish is hand-rubbed)
>> Overall length is just under 7.75"
>> Timascus bolsters
>> Ironwood scales
>> Titanium liners (blue/grey/purple anodized)
>> Titanium clip (blue/grey/purple anodized)
>> Titanium standoffs (blue/grey/purple anodized)
>> Wharncliffe blade w/single thumbstud (titanium with an abalone insert)
The Bill's Custom Case shown in the photos will be included.
I'm located in France so the knife will be shipped insured via Colissimo (www.laposte.fr) but please note the successful buyer will be responsible for any applicable import duties and taxes. I'll provide a shipping receipt and tracking number as soon the knife is shipped. Shipping usually takes 5-7 days to most North American metropolitan areas. Western Europe is quicker of course.
Asking price, including shipping to Western Europe and North America, is $600 or make me an offer.
Payment via Paypal required prior to shipping.
Thanks for looking!
