Allan Blade Runt; Paying it forward (Charity)

[MagiKelly]

Unlike British Red and his F1 I love this knife.

I love the look of it and the feel of it but I just don't use it. Nor is it that great for my daughters to use as they need a thinner blade. So I am auctioning it off with the winner making payment to Karen's Marathon for the Teenage Cancer Trust

The auction runs till 8pm forum time on Thursday the 8th February 2007 (just in time for Valentines Day )

The price includes RMSD and you can make payments to the justgiving site using all major credit and debit cards

About the Knife

The Runt is made by Allan Blade. It had a cocobolo handle with mosaic pins. It comes with both the kydex sheath (with multi carry clip) and the leather sheath made by Mike McNiven. It does not come with a firesteel though.

The blade is 01 tool steel. 65mm long 4mm thick and scandi ground. It no longer has the dark look as it has been sharpened so it is a shiny steel finish.

Although remember these are no longer getting made and sell like hot cakes so do not get too hopeful at getting it for the original price

Now some more pictures

Any questions just ask. If not happy bidding and good luck.
