I had another post up with the Harvey, based on some advice. I didn't like the pricing so I have withdrawn it and reposting it here with updated pricing.
***SOLDFirst though is the Aegis Hoplite. This is a full custom from a small maker from years ago. I bought this from the original owner on The Usual Suspects network. This was the full custom special edition for Usual Suspects Network and that had the toxic green anodized standoffs and screws with a stone washed titanium handle and black washed and stonewashed blade. I had Smock from the eponymous Smock knives personally anodize this knife, one of the last he was doing as a service. This knife definitely has some Hinderer DNA in it. It is screaming sharp with the original Edge. This thing drops shut, fires strong, great detent and rests dead center. A great representative for this knife. Runs on bearings. Lost the COA moving 4 times. Condition B. SV $450. Sold.***
Action:
***Sold Michael Zieba Manhattan. This tiny custom is a nice and sleek little package. The blade is an M390 laser. It is strongly built with Ti everything , sand blasted Ti handles and Blue anodized accents. Lightly Carried and Used. I have the original packaging and COA. CONDITION B+ SV $200 > $175 ***
Next is a Peña Caballero TAD edition. It is in natural Micarta inlays with Ti Handles and a hand rubbed CPM154 blade. Enrique's heat treat is top notch and he gets everything CPM 154 has to offer, which is a lot when done well. F&f is normal custom Peña quality. I have dropped this knife and there is a small nick on the lock side bolster edge. I tried to capture it. Purchased directly from TAD. I have the original papers and box. CONDITION C+ SV $500> $475
I am the original owner of this one. This beauty is from Kevin Harvey. It's a 6.5" utility hunter in Damascus Twist and an Imperial Red Stag Antler as the handle with Maple Burl and Nickel Silver Bolster. It has his name on the Ricasso. I have the COA and a write-up from BG. It has a perfect grind and beautiful fuller. This type of damascus, twist damascus, take another level of skill. Most of his other work is random damascus, but a subset is patterned and this example is one of his best. It also has a hand stitched and tooled, full grain leather sheath handmade by Kevin Harvey M.S.. I wish I was a photographer to truly capture this knife. Condition A+, never used or carried. $950>$850>$700.
