Hi folks, got a few that have been up before but are still available. I'm trying to price everything to (hopefully) sell quickly. Each knife will have its own post below.

I take Paypal, check and money order as payment. To buy, post "I'll take it" in this thread or email me. My paypal address is markellmtthw@aol.com.
I cover my knives with a lifetime common sense warranty with free sharpening.

Any questions or comments, let me know, I am always interested in your feedback.

Thanks
Matt
 
I am very very happy with how this one came out, I feel it is my best work to date. The handle is very smooth and comfortable in the hand, the blade shape is versatile and useful and the F&F is some of the best I have done so far.

Specs:

Blade: 5/32" 1095 @ 60Rc heat treated by Darrin Sanders
Handle: Cocobolo, black G10 and natural canvas micarta fastened with stainless corbies
Grind: Saber with swedge, polished convex edge
Finish: Blade bevels are scotchbrite belt finished while the flats are an acid etched forge finish. Handle was wet sanded with tung oil to 800 grit then given a final finish of Tru-Oil.
Sheath: Boltaron with leather dangler belt loop and boltaron keeper clip. Can be changed to left hand carry and is Large TekLok compatible.
The blade is 3.5", the OAL is 8.25"
This knife is 7.5oz, with the sheath it is 11.5oz.

Priced is $185 shipped, tracked and insured CONUS.

Thanks for looking everyone, questions and comments are welcome!
 
This is a really really nice chopper. It feels fairly fast in the hand but has some major power behind it. I am really happy with how this one turned out, it's a beast!

Specs:
Steel: 1/4" 5160 heat treated by Darrin Sanders to 56-57 Rc for toughness. Scotchbrite belt finish, Full Flat Grind, awesome polished convex edge
Handle: OD Green Canvas Micarta sanded to a low grit for grip
Stainless tube hardware
Convex edge
The edge is thinner towards the ricasso for fine cutting
Balance point is right where the plunges are
All edges(spine, guard, etc) are rounded.
16" OAL, 9.5" cutting length
Kydex sheath included, large teklock compatible, comes with a belt loop.

Price is $265 shipped CONUS and includes a kydex sheath.

A quick note, there are few scuff marks on the blade from the kydex, this one is not a safe queen!

First I have a small fixed blade that is designed for EDC.

Specs:

Steel: 3/32 1095 heat treated by Darrin Sanders to 61Rc
Grind: Right hand chisel with mirror convex edge. Screaming sharp!
Handle: Epoxy soaked cord wrap
Blade finish: Acid etched then stone washed
Sheath: Boltaron Sheath included
2.75" Blade, 6.75" OAL
3.5oz including sheath!

$SOLD shipped CONUS


Next up I have the full sized version of my Hunter's Knife design but with a thinner and slicier steel. I designed it to be capable of skinning, bushcraft, camp work, pretty much anything you can throw at it. This one is geared more towards slicing.

Specs:

Steel: 3/32 1095 heat treated by Darrin Sanders to 60Rc
Grind: Full Flat to a very fine edge.
Handle: Natural Canvas with White G10 pinstripe and beefy Black G10 liners. Stainless 1/4" tube hardware
Blade finish: Scotchbrite belt Machine Finish
Sheath: Boltaron Sheath included
3.6" Blade, 8.5" OAL
5oz, 7oz including sheath

$165 shipped CONUS

Both sheaths come with a paracord loop system that is compatible with both left and right handed horizontal and vertical carry. It works great but if you don't like it the EDC is Large and Small TekLok compatible and the Hunter's Knife is Large TekLok compatible.

All great-looking knives. I particularly like the combination of handle materials, and f & f on the 1095/cocobolo. :thumbup:

Your work with kydex is exceptional. It all looks great
 
Thank you for the service. Whoever picks up the other knives are going to be lucky. Those handles look amazing and that chopper is hot.
 
The EDC came in today and for a simple knife it is really really well done. I am really enjoying carrying it today. Someone better hop on these other knives before I start saving my paychecks.

Good to hear MooseStuff! I meant to email you earlier today and make sure you got it but ended up chainsawing a fallen tree off my driveway all day. :rolleyes:
