Greetings all,

Offered for sale is sweet hunter by one of the most talented makers in the game - Nick Wheeler.

You can read some interesting background on this piece and see some in-progress pics here:

This piece is one of exceptional provenance, forming part of the set of Nick's JS test knives:

Nick not only attained his JS stamp with this set, he also claimed the prestigious Peck Award - which came as a surprise to no-one familiar with his work.

I'll edit in the dimensions when I get home, but figure at least 4 1/2" blade, 8" overall - might be a touch larger.

1084 blade, ironwood handle, stainless steel guard, synthetic spacers.

As shown below, the knife comes with an exceptional (is there any other kind?) Paul Long sheath.

Offered at US$OLD! - inclusive of Paypal (vastly preferred) and shipping within the US and Canada. I will ship overseas to a BF member, but that would be at additional and actual cost - and it is pricey.

As always, I am happy to answer questions, but the first "I'll take it" by e-mail or PM will add this slick piece to their collection.

Thanks for taking the time to read this post.

Roger

Killer deal Roger for an extremely rare piece by an exceptionally gifted maker!
 
Sorry for the tardy update - I've been tied up out of the office all day - the piece has been sold - I really appreciate all who responded and I'm sorry I couldn't have given an earlier indication that it was no longer available.

All the best,

Roger
 
Wheeler really has it going on... beautiful knives, and the hunter you sold has a really super handle or choice material.
