SALE PENDING ALAN WOOD. "GENT".

A lovely knife from Alan's back catalogues, first shown in his 1995 catalogue as a 'Spike'. Possibly re-named due to this PC and 'Woke' climate we now live in, it was descibed as thus: "Ultra slim utility-boot knife. Has proven extremely popular at shows. Grooved or stippled bolster area for secure grip. With slim sheath. Blade: 3-3/8 inches.

Oal:7-3/8 inches." This modern example has been handled in polished Axis Deer Antler with fine green liners and s/steel fittings with a central mosaic pin. The steel is premium RWL34 s/steel and has stippled bolsters and comes with a very nice basketweave stamped sheath.

New from Maker. £485 inc. Uk p&p.

LARRY DAVIDSON. TEXAS. USA. "MIL-TAC".

I have to confess to knowing nothing about this Maker other than he hails from New Braunfels, Texas. Whilst it appears he makes mainly folders, he certainly knows how to make a military style knife. This knife is marked "S30V" and "1 of 1" on one side of the blade with Larry's logo on the other.  The blade shows the lightest of scratches/marks on the blade but appears to be virtually unused. The handle is grooved black G10 and the knife comes with a correct fitting Spec-Ops sheath. Blade:6-3/8 inches. Oal:11-3/4 inches. Near Mint cond. £375 inc. Uk p&p.

SOLD ALAN WOOD. "RUSTIC".

An earlier design by Alan as this model was showing in his 1997 catalogue.This is how he described it: "Small, pure utility knife for outdoor use. Handy for rustic carving or fine woodcraft. Bevel ground blade.". However, Alan has produced this modern day version with a Flat ground blade in Damasteel and Indian Antler. Blade:2-5/8 inches. Oal:6-1/2 inches. Complete with a superb Cavalry Flap-over sheath.

New from Maker. 

WHITE TIGER KNIVES. UK. "UTILITY".

A working knife from the skilled hands of Steve Nowacki (White Tiger Knives) that has been used by it's previous owner and could now appreciate a little 'TLC' before riding out on it's next adventure. The edge would benefit from resharpening and one side of the blade shows scratches on the bluing - either from use or an attempt of removing blemishes (there is no pitting present, so strange that would be attempted?). Blade:4-3/8 inches. Oal:9 inches. Handle of (unknown) wood & blue liners fasted with hex bolts. Complete with original brown leather sheath.  Good condition. NEW PRICE:£350 inc. UK p&p.

SPYDERCO. USA. "PYGMY WARRIOR".

See details in FOLDERS.

Mint condition. NEW PRICE: £425 inc. UK p&p.

WHITE TIGER KNIVES. "WOODWALKER".

A very practical design from the forge of Steve Nowacki, this knife would make a perfect companion for a venture into the woods, and excel around the campfire for food prep with its flat ground slicing blade. Hand forged by the skilled hands of Steve, it shows a faint but visable 'Hamon' line testifying to the high quality of the knife. The handle is 'aged' Micarta, with steel pins. Blade: 4 inches. Oal: 8 inches. Complete with original sheath, also made by Steve. The knife shows signs of light use (and why not - too useful to stay in a Collection).

Excellent condition. NEW PRICE: £350 inc. UK p&p.

SOLD WHITE TIGER KNIVES. "Randall #1-7".

A special order and 'one-off' from one of the UK's top Bladesmiths, Steve Nowacki, trading as White Tiger Knives. The seller requested a hand-forged version of Randall's famed Model 1 and Steve did not disappoint with a knife that not only pays homage to Randall but also has an element of the legendary Vietnam SOG knife, with it's blued guard and buttcap on the stacked leather handle, complete with coloured spacers.

Blade: 7 inches. Oal: 12 inches. Complete with a well made dark brown leather belt sheath, also made by Steve.

Excellent condition.

Unknown Maker. SOUTH AFRICA. "RAPTOR".

This knife is from a Collection that came to me a while ago and I forget the name the Maker. However, the 'fit & finish' and overall quality certainly tells me it is from another of those superb S/African Makers. The blade has a very nice etch of a Raptor, along with a Paw print, which I presume is the Markers signature/logo. The bolsters are s/steel, with a green Pakkawood handle and very thin white liners. The knife is unused but the bolsters show 'hairline' scratches. Blade: 4-1/4 inches. Oal: 9 inches. Complete with a nicely made black leather belt sheath.

V. Good condition. £175 inc. UK p&p.

T. BURGER. SOUTH AFRICA. "TAMBOOTIE UTILITY/HUNTER".

A very well made knife from Trevor Burger, who is known for his high quality workmanship. Excellent grinds, with a handle of native Tambootie wood, set of by very thin black & white liners, with brass fittings. Blade: 3-1/2 inches. Oal: 7-3/4 inches. Complete with original leather sheath.

Mint, unused condition. £250 inc. UK p&p.

JOHN EK KNIVES. USA. "MURPHY COMBAT KNIFE".

Made in the early 1990's as a commenmorative copy of the original Murphy combat knives, but having an etched logo on the blade to distinguish them from originals. These knives came in a box with a brown leather sheath, information card and patch, but unfortunately there is only the patch still remaining - perhaps not too surprising after 30+ years. A rare chance to fill a gap in a collection as originals are hard to come by on 'this side of the pond'.

Mint, unused condition. £195 inc. UK p&p

SOLD ALAN WOOD. "PCT - Pacific Crest Trail".

A brand new model from Alan. Designed for a customer who was looking for a knife that would cover his needs whilst hiking and overnight camping. Having experience in hiking the famous Appalachian Trail, his next trip was to be the 'Pacific Crest Trail' and he wanted a more robust knife than the pocket knife he previously carried. I'm certain that he would not have been disappointed with this model, with a flat grind blade of premium RWL34 s/steel. This particular example has a slim handle of carbon fibre, with the inner colour exposed, and is offset by a combination of carbon fibre and s/steel pins, with an orange G10 centre pin. Complete with a kydex neck sheath and lanyard. Blade: 3". Oal: 7".

Brand new from Maker.
