This scary unusual knife was made several years ago by Ollie Campbell, a young maker at that time in Surrey, UK. I purchased it from him on the maker's part of Bladeforums. The hammer work is amazingly precise, and the needle point introduces a crazy sharp blade. A fascinating wicked rascal of a knife with burgundy micarta scales. I have used it for nothing but test cuts with phone book paper. A remarkable little knife in my estimation. Asking $170, now sold pending exactly what I paid for it. I will ship it insured domestic priority at my expense. Check it out, please.IMG_20240222_131400_938.jpgIMG_20240222_131239_383.jpgIMG_20240222_131310_008.jpgIMG_20240222_131451_122.jpgIMG_20240222_131421_369.jpgIMG_20240222_131209_664.jpg

I am not certain, but I believe it is 52100. This is a remarkably unique knife for me, but I am hoping to sell a few from my small collection so I can buy more knives! Discretionary money formerly for knife buying is primarily consumed by materials to make knives now. Eager to sell as there is a knife posted I really want!
 
What's the blade length on this? And how wide is the belt loop/slots? Can't really afford this, but considering it.
 
The cutting edge is 3", 3 1/2 from scales to tip. The vertical strip of leather is 3" from rivet to rivet and 3/4" in width. My 1 1/2" thickish belt is tight in it.

Unfortunately my belts are all 1.75"... never been a fan of the wharncliffe style either, but this particular knife is incredibly cool. I don't know if Ollie is still making knives... hasn't posted since 2022 and couldn't find a website for him, but from the pics I saw he does incredible work. Much as I love this thing, funds are tight so I'll need to pass.
 
I was in contact with him for a while but don't have any contact now. Glad you found a wee bit about him at all. If 150$ will help, I can do that. Hustling to get a currently posted knife. I do nothing with most of my collected knives but examine them, play with them, and slice paper. Time to see different ones now. Thanks for looks.
