Bought in May this year with the intention of making my own knife and sheath but it's all sat in the cupboard and I can't see me ever getting round to it with so much else going on......

Bernie Garland Bushcraft knife blank, complete with solid brass tubing as well as two brass loveless bolts and tubing.

2 pairs of book matched handle scales; Curly birch and beautifully figured birds eye maple which I bought from the states - will become stunning and functional handle (just like on the original Ray Mears knife)

Leather sheath supplies all from Le Prevo:

Approx 14.3 ft2 of 3.2-3.6mm veg tanned shoulder
Dyes - tan and medium brown
Carnauba Creme
Edge Kote
Sewing Awl handle
2 x 1 3/4" awl blades
Stitch groover, adjustable
Edge beveller
Wooden edge slicker
10 x wool daubers
Drill bits (for installing the loveless bolts): 4.1mm HSS and a step drill bit (to countersink the bolts neatly)

More pics available on request.

This cost in total around £220.....(the leather alone was £75 and the knife blank was £55)

Yours for only £110 + shipping. Please pm if interested. Thanks

Someone's getting a bargain here. Bernie garlands blanks are generally very good steel with a good HT. Everything you need if you want to have a crack at knife making. Shame it isn't split I'm always in the market for scales ;)

Anyone wanting to know tech on the blanks garland generally uses 4mm O1 tool in 58/59 HRC Ime.

Fecksticks... missed another bargain. :(

Let me know if the sold isn't a sold... I'm being an opportunist, but more than happy to splash the cash.
