That Buck Vanguard has "Put a new handle on me!" written all over it. I'll take it for £20 if you can take Paypal Mark.
PM me details and I'll send the ££.

 

[Roefisher]

PayPal is fine with me, Longstrider. You'll have a pm in a tick.

Loads of pretty things there, what do you think of the Ritter fixed blade ?
I quite fancy one when funds permit but i haven't heard much about them.

 

[Roefisher]

Fantastic blade on the Ritter, Lawrence, but I think that the handle could have been a bit thicker as it tends to break away from your hand easily when slicing and that's a pet hate of mine. If it wasn't for that great deep blade I'd nearly move it on

Darn! I was looking at the £20. Havn't got a knife yet, apart from a crappy penknife. Oh well, theres always next time.

Isn't that a Nexus 7 hiding away at the back there Mark? If so have you "put it through its paces"?

Indeed it is, Red.

I'm nearly obsessive about caring for personal articles such as knives and fishing reels. My knives are dried and ren waxed after every outing and put on the shelf where you see them and the sheaths are cleaned and labelled so that I can reach for the one needed without a fuss later. It only takes about five minutes

Although It's sitting idle at the back there I do use it fairly often. I can recommend them as one of the best around - the Nexus is a great knife. I first used it when I went down to Lough Corrib back in the Summer. As it was new at the time and I didn't want to be caught with no heavy knife if the worst happened, I took the A2 down as well. The Nexus did very well indeed and it now goes out on all my wee outings when I take a Kelly kettle or fancy some blackthorn or hazel sticks - it's unbeatable for me when I go to do any light cutting or splitting.

That little Sisu looks nice.

What shape is the handle cross-section ?

 

[WhichDoctor]

Don't mind me, I'll just sit here in the corner and stair longingly for a while (hmm, All the pretty shiny things, so shiny and expensive ) *sob*

Here's a couple of photos I took just now, sir. Hope they let the fox see the rabbits

I'm not sure yet. Hang loose until Xunil lets me know. If he doesn't want the knife then she's yours with a big thanks from me

This has to be one of the longest winded sales threads i've been involved in, so in keeping with that style - what about my traditional wee Nordic scandi knives too. Here they are pictured below (top right bunch on the shelf) I might as well show them off, too

Now, we're off for a wee walk through a howling wet gale to my sister's home for a tipple and a bit of craic. I'll see you all later on, folks!
