Small game hunter/EDC in Aldo's 1084 - *SOLD*

[daizee]

Hi All,

This is the first 85% (my new 'small' size) Hunter/skinner pattern in Aldo's famous 1084 and black G10.
(this knife was in the gallery back in January if it looks familiar)

Blade: 2.6", ~0.135" thick at the spine.
6.05" OAL
1/8" brass pins
Handle sanded to 360, blade to 1000 (Flitz waxed, but it WILL patina)

This is a really nice EDC size. It is just the right dimensions to give exceptional control of the entire blade while still be compact and convenient to have around all the time.

Sheath is simple Kydex with a single tension welt. The holes are drilled for a mini tech-lock (0.5" c-t-c) and un-rivetted so it can be fully cleaned and dried.

This is my first knife up for actual sale here on BF. It doesn't have a maker's mark as I haven't got that sorted yet, but it can't wait for that.

I'm asking $85 shipped to the CONUS for this little guy.
Payment by paypal or USPS money order, please.
Knife will ship insured.
Only paying BF members, please.
First "I'll take it" or PM takes it home.

Thanks for looking,

-Daizee

Will the sheath work as a neck carry? Phil

That looks ridiculously handsome, daizee. Can't wait to see what else you come up with *cough* choppers *cough*. Damn, something in my throat....

Thanks for the kind comments, fellas. No bites yet!

Will the sheath work as a neck carry? Phil

Phil, there is room at the tip of the sheath above the drop point for a lanyard hole, from which it would hang straight. The knife is solid, tho, and would probably bruise your sternum if it got a-swinging. G10 is dense. it's a bit heavy for that mode of carry, IMO. Rention is plenty to keep it in upside-down, however, either on a lanyard or pack strap.

I received the knife today and it exceeded all expectations! It was carefully packed with a blade chamois, emery board for edge touch up, and signed letter with all the knife specs. The workmanship is first rate without a blemish anywhere. I will need another as I don't want to mark this up!

Thanks again,

Gary
