I have a mint condition Bob Dozier Folding Hunter liner lock with maroon micarta handle scales and a two-tone satin finished D2 drop point blade for trade. With its monstrous .125" thick liners and contoured handle, the Folding Hunter is built really tough and fills the hand well. This particular piece is rarer than the norm in that each handle scale has an inlay made from black and ivory micarta, and the knife has a nail nick instead of a thumbstud. The nail nick on this Folding Hunter is perhaps the best I have seen yet on a folder and facilitates an easy one-handed opening action. I don't know how many of these Bob made in this particular configuration, but this piece is the only one that I have ever seen.

The Folding Hunter listed here has never been carried, used, or resharpened, and its original edge from Bob is very sharp. The opening action is very smooth, the lock-up is rock solid, and the blade centering is near perfect.
