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. £395 inc. UK p&p.

SOLD TRC KNIVES. LITHUANIA. "CLASSIC FREEDOM".

I'm a huge fan of TRC Knives, which are made (& designed) by Andrius Tricius and his skilled craftsmen. One of the finest semi-production knives available in today's knife market - and this TRC knife backs up that claim. A classic knife for enjoying the 'freedom' of being outdoors, this is the slightly smaller version (of the original 'This is Freedom" model) and as such, probably more suited to the UK user. Made from premium M390 steel, with a ribbed handle of micarta complimented by red liners. Blade: 92mm. Oal: 205mm.   Mint, as new condition. £225 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. £395 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.

SOLD GEOFF HAGUE. "KARAMBIT".

A most unusual departure from his typical offerings, I can only assume this was a special request for a good customer ? Whatever, Geoff has made a very impressive looking knife to his usual very high standards, which are bordering on perfection. And to set off this spectacular knife even more is some extemely well executed engraving on the bolsters. I suspect the steel is RWL34 and the handle is dyed wood, with a blue hue, and s/steel pins set of by thin red liners. Blade: 3-3/4 inches (along the spine). Oal: 7-3/4 inches. The well made sheath is original to the knife although, again, not typical of Geoffs usual work having no belt loop. Mint, unused condition. £450 inc. UK p&p.

PUMA KNIVES. GERMANY. "ORIGINAL BOWIE - 6396".

Besides the White Hunter, this is probably Puma's most recognisable model and you will not find a better example than this 1976 version, made in 'Pumaster Steel' (carbon). For a knife that is nearly 50 years old, it looks as though it had left the factory only yesterday ! Very rare to find a carbon steel Puma with barely a blemish on it, so this really is a rareity.

Unfortunately it is missing it's Rockwell sticker on the blade, although the indent is clear to see and it has arrived to me in an incorrect Puma box. Blade: 6-1/2 inches. Oal: 11 inches.

Mint, unused condition. £350 inc. UK p&p.

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.

SOLD ALAN WOOD. "FRONTIERSMAN".

A knife from the early days of Alan's knifemaking, when he was open to suggestions and willing to make your 'Dream Knife'. For want of  a better word - and for obvious reasons - I've called this knife a 'Frontiersman' and any 'buckskin clad explorer of old' would have been delighted to have this on his belt. I suspect the steel is probably D2 and at 5mm thick, this is a hefty piece. The blade shows light scratches but no tarnish or pitting. The wooden handle could be Walnut and has brass fittings. Blade: 7-1/2 inches. Oal: 12-3/4 inches. Complete with aftermarket sheath.

Good condition.

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

ONTARIO. USA. "QUARTERMASTER ARMY-95".

A discontinued knife from Ontario (now itself deceased) and a modern version of the popular Cattaraugus 225Q knife used by the infantry in WW2. This is a stout knife as befitting the original which was used for opening wooded crates and closing again using the brass pommel. There is no box with this knife but it has the original sheath. Blade:6 inches. Oal:10-3/4 inches. 

Mint, unused condition. New price: £135 inc. UK p&p

GERBER. USA. "MIMING Model".

Vintage knife from Gerber Legendary Blades.

Mint, unused condition. £25 inc. UK p&p.

BEAR MGC. USA.  "Stag Bone SUB-HILT".

Please email for details.

Mint, unused condition. NEW PRICE: £95 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.
