BUSHCRAFT KNIVES FOR SALE -

SOLD ROB BAYLEY. UK. "DELUXE S4".

Simply Stunning ! Details added asap.

Mint, as new condition. £1125 inc. UK p&p.

MORAKNIV. SWEDEN. "GARBERG".

In my opinion, the best knife to ever come out of the Mora stable !

This is the stainless steel version, with the Multi-mount, and appears to be unused. Excellent condition. £65 inc. UK p&p.

RAY MEARS/ALAN WOOD. "WOODLORE".

A knife that needs no introduction ! This is an earlier example of this iconic knife, as shown by the full width tang ( Alan gradually tapered the tang as the design evolved ) and the slimmer - and more sculptured - handle. Complete with original leather sheath which shows light storage marks. This knife also shows signs of light sharpening.

Very good condition. POA.

JARED OESER. USA. " One-off BUSHCRAFT".

Jared is one of the USA's Premier Makers, mainly known for his folders which are highly sought after. Every once in a while he makes a fixed blade and I understand that this is a rare knife being his only Bushcraft knife with a Flat grind. The 'fit & finish' are superb as befitting his reputation as I'm sure whoever buys this knife will agree. 01 carbon tool steel with a G10 handle (and spacers) this knife feels great in (my) hand.

Complete with a black leather sheath - with firesteel holder - also made by Jared.

Mint, unused condition. £450 inc. UK p&p.

COLD STEEL. USA. "BUSH RANGER".

A long discontinued model from Cold Steel in their fabled Carbon V steel, which has a black epoxy powder coating.

This is what they had to say about it in their year 2000 catalogue : "Designed by Lynn C. Thompson to fulfil the need for a rugged, light sheath knife that's large enough to be useful in an emergency, yet small enough to wear on your belt everyday". Blade: 7-1/2 inches. Oal: 12-1/2 inches. Thickness:3/16 inches. Weight: 8.8oz. Complete with original nylon sheath & box. Mint, unused cond. £345 inc. UK p&p.

RAY MEARS/STEVE WADE COX. "BUSHCRAFT KNIVES".

SOLD Top: Woodlore Pro. (the very last made by Steve)

SOLD Middle: Oak handle Bushcraft.

SOLD Bottom: 30 year Ann. ( Ltd. Ed. of 100 knives ).

Please note - althougn never used, the W'lore Pro & 30yr. Ann were stored in their sheaths and so show a very small amount of tarnish. The Oak Handled knife has been sharpened but apart from that is still in excellent condition. All knives complete with original boxes and sheaths.

Prices on Application.

SOLD ALAN WOOD. "WOODLORE PROFILE".

A lovely version of this classic Bushcraft knife from Alan, this time made from 3mm 01 tool steel, giving all the advantages of the standard 4mm knives but with enhanced slicing ability for food prep.

SOLD ALAN WOOD. "TIMBERWOLF".

Brand new from Maker.

SOLD WILDERWAYS. UK. "WILDER".

Until I was sent his knife, I was unaware of Francis Lawrence and his superb knives. The workmanship is very good indeed and the ergonomics of the handle makes this one of the most comfortable using knives I have held. This what Francis had to say about his Wilder model on his website - "designed as an all round utility knife ideal for outdoor activities such as hunting, fishing, hiking, canoeing, food prep while on the trail, etc. 

Blade: 3mm AEL-B Flat grind with secondary bevel. 95mm. Oal: 205mm. Handle white G10 with red & white liner. S/steel Loveless bolts.

Complete with Kydex sheath and leather sheath (which was an optional extra purchase). This model may have been discontinued as it is no longer shown on his website. Apart from some scratches near the blade's tip, possibly from the kydex(?) the knife is in mint condition.

Nr. Mint condition. 

ESEE USA. "GIBSON AXE".

A superb working hatchet that has been 'customised' by the previous owner with a mirror polish to the 1095 steel, at a cost of £80 by Gemini Bespoke Knives. (The mirror finish could be useful as a signalling aid in a survival situation, as well as helping to retard corrosion).

Because of the new surface finish, all Esee branding has been lost. 

Mint, unused condition. New price: £210 inc. UK p&p.

SOLD TP KNIVES. "EXPLORER".

This could possibly be the most well crafted Bushcraft knife I have seen - and I've seen a lot ! It almost borders on being a 'Sculpture', the handle is so well refined but still extremely comfortable to hold. The blade is double tempered 01 carbon steel (what else) with the bevel having a mirror polish. The handle is stabilised Oregon Maple Burl, with mosaic pins. This knife will certainly give that 'Pride of Ownership' feeling and could actually be just too nice to take out and use - and that would be a crime !

Mint, unused condition. 

TOPS KNIVES. USA. "FIELDCRAFT - Brothers of Bushcaft".

please email for details,

Mint, unused condition.  NEW PRICE: £170 inc. UK p&p.

ONTARIO KNIFE CO. USA. "SK-5 BLACK BIRD".

Complete with sheath & box ( which shows storage marks )

As new condition. NEW PRICE: £140 inc. UK p&p.

SOLD EDDIE McGEE. "NO NEED TO DIE".

Before Ray, there was Lofty (Wiseman) and this chap Eddie McGee, an expert in survival training. First published in 1978 ( this is the 1986 reprint in paperback ) the information is still 1st class - although some may find the illustrations a little amatuerish ? 

Very good condition. 

SOLD RAYMOND MEARS. "The SURVIVAL HANDBOOK - 1990".

The first book written by Ray - when he was still known as Raymond- in 1990 (this book was reprinted in 1994). An fascinating insight into what was to follow in the years ahead. Particularly interesting is the chapter on Cutting Tools where you can clearly see Ray's thoughts on his 'ideal' knife, which were just waiting for his fortuitous meeting with Knifemaker Alan Wood - and a Legend to be born ! 

Excellent condition. £20 plus UK p&p
