Please see below knives for sale. All knives will ship with a fresh coat of Renaissance wax. Not for sale to jurisdictions illegal to own. If interested in these knives, please email me a bowieknive AT gmail.com. Payment by Paypal as purchase transaction only (no friends and family).

It shows that I have no feedback on Bladeforums, but I've bought and sold on here before. It's just been a while. I've also bought and sold on JerzeeDevils. Additionally, I've got 100% feedback on ar15.com under the same name (25 transactions) and I've got 100% feedback on eBay with the username drummer1836 (88 transactions).

The first bowie is a Kevin Cashen bowie. It has about 9.5 inches of sharpened edge and is about 10.25" to the guard. It is about 15 and 3/8" long overall with a wide 2" blade that is trademark for Cashen. It is roughly .25" thick at the guard with a distal taper. The guard appears to be nickel silver and it has a wood handle that is checkered on the sides. A single brass pin sits in the middle of the handle and is likewise checkered. The handle appears to be ironwood.

The clip is sharpened with a secondary bevel. It does not appear to have been used. There is a spot of pitting near the tip of the blade on the left side (see pictures) that was there when I got the knife. There is some light speckling on the opposite side of the blade (right side). The ferrule behind the guard has a scratch on the right side parallel to the guard. There is also a dark pin prick-sized spot on the same side of the ferrule.

The blade is marked "KC" on each side of the ricasso. There is no sheath. The knife will ship with a padded case. $650 shipped insured.

The next blade up is a Greg Covington damascus bowie. It has a madagascar ebony handle with a mosaic oval damascus guard. The blade has about 9 1/4" of sharpened edge and is about 10 1/4" long to the guard. It is about 15 1/4" long overall. The blade is just under 1 1/2" wide. It is roughly .25' thick at the guard with a distal taper. The clip is sharp but does not have a secondary bevel. The blade is stamped on the right side "COVINGTON." This is a light and fast piece.

There is some light speckling towards the tip on the left side and some midway down the right side of the blade. There is no pitting. The knife does not appear to have been used. Included is a sheath also from Covington. $575.00 shipped insured.

Next is a Lamey fighter. The blade length is 5.25" and is about 10" overall. This one has been used and has some obvious stains on the blade. The edge has also been stropped. The original finish was done with a scotchbrite-type belt. A quick pass would have it looking new again. Steel is unknown other than carbon steel (probably 1095 or 1084). $150 shipped insured. SOLD

Lastly is a Black Cloud dagger. These were handed out at the 1996 Southern Steel meeting and is marked as such on the back of the blade. The handle scales are ironwood. The blade is approximately 4" long and is a bit over 8" overall. There's a couple of handle flaws that were done while being made, from what I can tell. First, there is a chip around the lanyard tube. Second, there are two spots on one side of the scales that look like maybe it was touched while the finish was drying. I believe that the knife is in the condition that it arrived from the maker. It includes a presentation box. I am unsure of the steel but can hazard a guess that it's ATS-34. Please forgive the Renaissance Wax in the picture.

$150 shipped insured. SPF
