I have a couple sweet ones that are killing me to sell but need to pay for incoming purchases.
1.) Ka-Bar 1190 Jumbo Jack. N(ew)O(ld)S(tock)IB. I've also seen this called a torpedo jack. Purchased as "new old stock" (I cannot find any date of manufacture of this model), this one is handled in FAT & beautiful stag. Mint as purchased. Not carried or sharpened. Closed length is 4 1/8", main blade 3 1/8", pen blade is 2 1/4". Blades are stainless, unsure of what type but they came wicked sharp out of the box. Springs has great snap and no blade play (as I would expect from a new folder). This is a hefty herman built for use.
Asking what I paid for it, $100 $95 $90 shipped . SOLD TO SHKBLY

2.) Bowie Corporation Whittler. NIB 2001 manufacture. Handles are unique orange corn-cobbed bone. Very attractive. Bowie Corporation seems to be some sort of Marble's venture before Marble's went to China and turned to crap. This is a rare one as are most USA made Marble's slippies now. Came in a Queen / Schatt & Morgan box, go figure. This is a US made knife, stamped "OKEMOS, MICH. U.S.A." on main blade and "2001" on the pen blade. Just under 4 3/8" closed. Blades are scary sharp D2. Main blade 3 3/8", spear point pen blade 2 1/8", spey blade is 2 1/4".
Absolutely dead mint. Never carried once.
Asking $105 $100 $95 shipped . SOLD TO BOGGS

Please PM or email me with any questions. I am pretty firm on these prices and am asking what I have into them.
I accept Paypal and MO. Let's keep these to shipping in the CONUS.
Thanks for looking. :)
