Where can you get a saber-ground clip pont nowadays, or any saber-ground slipjoint?

As shown on my favorite slipjoint blade-shape reference, https://agrussell.com/encyclopedia/blade-shapes , there are some very cool and unusual blade shapes that are hard to find, Case doesn't make 'em, you can only find poor Chinese Schrade/Imperial copies (Rough Ryder is a lot better imo)... One of the first that intrigued me was the Cotton Sampler's blade, which I managed to find a very beautiful stag-horn Rough Ryder version of. Another blade shape that intrigued was the Sabre Clip Point and the Sabre Spear Point. Does anyone know who may sell these kinds of blades nowadays, and what models they might be? I very much appreciate it!

I have never heard of the Lanny, thanks for the rec! Oof, so far I see some steep prices, hopefully I can find this around!

Yes aside from the Tony Bose collaborations and customs from various makers, I haven’t seen a Lanny’s clip. But they are a very handy blade shape when you do find one you like!
 
If you can find a Case Saddlehorn, they have a saber ground clip. Most have 2 blades, but they can be found with a single blade.

Ooh, that looks nice and thick! I do like it! Not totally what I meant, but definitely glad you told me about this.

That is a great example! They seem to be reasonably available, too, awesome!

Buck 301 is a made in the USA slipjoint stockman pattern with sabre-ground clip, sheepfoot and spey blades for under 50 bucks.

Oops. I see Just Tom beat me to it. However, I can certainly reccomend it. Great knife for the price. 420 HC blades I belive, and not nail breaker pulls. Right at 4" closed length, fairly pocket-friendly for most folks.

I have a Buck 110 in the mail and can't wait to try the Bos treated 420HC, it sounds like tough stuff! I have and use stuff like Cruwear and Rex45 but also love using good budget knives right alongside them, like the classic 1869-1929 carbon folders (Douk, K55, Higo, Opi), Mora, Ontario's AUS-8, AUS-10A and D2. Want to try SAK too eventually.

Good to know that it has three blades, I love quality slipjoints full'a blades, so much use!

This is SWEET! It looks like somebody took a Buck 110, and the Yatagan trailing point of the Opinel and put them together! I love it!

My favorite saber-ground spear, a Schatt & Morgan Keystone VIII teardrop @ 3⅞" closed length. You'll have to find one on the secondary markets.

Aww man, now that is truly a thing of beauty. A spear point sabre! Wow, I am so happy I got turned onto high-tier slipjoints since coming on here. But BOYYY I love that knife right there, drooling over it!
