Actually I sold two!!85 bucks each,with a leather sheath.Both were copies of my second knife,I made each one a little different though.I adjusted the handle size to fit.I delivered the first one tonight and got paid!Everyone was happy till he put the sheath on his belt,,,then I noticed something wrong,,,at least wrong to me.He was left handed so the knife was backwards for him.He was willing to keep it,said he's used to things being backwards.I'm gonna make him a left handed sheath.From now on I'm going to ask some questions BEFORE I make the sheath.

Congratulations. It's nice to know that someone is willing to shell out there money for your work isn't it? Just don't think about the fact that after materials you've made about 75 cents an hour! LOL

Congrats again

Howdy There Rebo.....!
Congraulations on your sale, ain't it great to know that someone else likes your work. I know that I was very proud of the first knife that I sold and how good I felt. Course you did learn a lessen, ask which hand the buyer is uses, that can really make a difference later on if you get into finger grooves and scuptured handles; and the sheathes. Good Luck and keep up the good work...!
Later "Possum"
