Lile No. 7 hunter is sold.
Up for sale is a beat up old Richtig knife. You won’t see many Richtig knives come up for sale. This feller Richtig used to cut metal bolts and stuff with his knives to show off how good they were. He was in Ripleys Believe it or not. As in, believe it or not, this dude really cut metal bolts and horse shoes and stuff with the knives he made.
Asking $200 including PayPal fees and shipping to US address.
Next up is a SOLD James Lile Model No. 7 hunter. This is an early model from the 1970s. I picked this up in a trade on here and have just had it sitting in a case unused. Includes a very nice sheath. Blade is right around 4”, overall about 8 1/2”. Some tarnishing on the brass, darkening and spotting throughout, particularly on the exposed tang, which has a couple spots of minor pitting, or else they're just rough spots, see pics. Blade has “Hand made by James B. Lile” engraved on it. These early pieces were signed by his wife before he started using a stamp. D2 steel with walnut handles. The model 7 was Mr. Lile’s personal favorite.
SOLD
