Woodsman SOLD
This knife is made of A2, and is in near perfect condition. There is only one spot near the tip, about 1mm in diameter, that is a result of a stain. The brass has been polished, and the leather handle reconditioned. An excellent example, and a fine knife.
Price is $105, please note "Woodsman" if you are interested.
Alaskan "A" SOLD
These are some interesting knives, they are a "Special Edition" run of 250. They were made in 1991 and were featured in the 1993 catalog, but were never put into "regular" production. There is some heavy staining on the blade, due to being stored in the sheath, but function of these blades has not been affected. The wooden handle is in perfect condition.
Price $85, Please note Alaskan "A" if you are interested.
Alaskan "B" SOLD
This Alaskan, has the worst blade staining by far, but is still in good working order.
Price $70 Please note "Alaskan B" if you are interested.
Archangel Cocobolo SOLD
The creme de la creme of the collection. This is a rare find, a cocobolo handled AUS8A handled Archangel. Only a few hundred of these were made, and this one is 100% all the way. No blade scratches, no stains, and the handles is perfect.
Price is $135 Please note Archangel if you are interested.
Tracker
A fine field knife, made in Japan, and hand finished in Effingham, IL. Its a light weight, 5 3/4" stainless steel blade, with a Kraton Handle. There are some minor scratches on the blade, from being sheath kept, but other than that, is good to go.
Price is $75 Please note "Tracker" if you are interested.
All of these knives would fit in the user category, they were obtained, then placed on a shelf for 30yrs or so, only being handled occasionally, and hardly used at all. Time has taken the "collection" value away.
Please contact me via email, PM, or in this thread, if you are interested in these blades. I can take more pictures of the knives if you wish, prices are negotiable, but please, no lowballing.
