Wharncliffe Nitro V and Richlite

[John Cahoon]

Greetings everyone, Here’s a new Wharncliffe I just finished up. Hope you like it!

NitroV with Paul Bos HT to 60,61- Dimensions - .13” x 8 3/8” OAL and 1 1/2” tall – 4 1/8” from tip to scales – Hand sanded to 1200 grit for a clean satin finish. It was .012” before sharpening and balances between the two front pins.

The scales are Maple Valley Richlite with black Micarta liners and 1/8” carbon fiber pins. It’s finished to 1200 grit. Buffed with carnauba wax. A great fit for the left or right hand. Sheath has a nice snug fit.


Asking only $160 to your door, and of course your satisfaction is my only priority. I can accept paypal, check or MO, and the price includes fees and free shipping in the US.

Thanks so much for looking! Please feel free to comment, ask anything here or via PM.

Backstory: A BF member from eastern Europe wanted this one when suddenly things went south over there and he couldn’t follow thru. I held it for about 9 months and just got around to finishing it. So this has the serial #21-37 carved on the back of the sheath, meaning I ground it late last year. If things get better over there (I hope) I’ll make him a new one.

I’m really digging this one John! Nice job.

Looks like one heck of a slicer!

 

[John Cahoon]

Hi Cwilliams563 Yes it's plenty sharp. Thanks for your kind words.

Another amazing profile John and love the choice of steel. Trying to resist.

I am proud to have a similar knife John did in purple richlite a while back. Love it. Yep, purple. Very cool knife. John.

 

[John Cahoon]

Hi Grady, yeah that purple was pretty cool eh? I like richlite and other synthetics well enough I guess but I love real wood, antler and leather handles. This is one of my rare forays into man made handle materials.

This is still available. Answer for Cwilliams563 the knife weighs about 5.5 oz and the sheath's about 2.5oz.

You make it all look good John. For real.

Good morning. Is this Wharncliffe still available, by any chance? Thanks so much, either way - it is an amazing knife/sheath!

Have a good day.

 

[John Cahoon]

The Durek No it's long gone. It will be many moons before another is available, I work in large batches.

No worries - thank you very much. I figured it probably was gone but wanted to take the chance, just in case it wasn't. Thanks!
