This knife is a little special to me. I'll upgrade to a maker when I renew my membership if this sells.

It was quite hard doing justice to the Mick Wardell blade, but I think the aircraft grade aluminium, buffalo horn, bone and horn came up well, it's not finished with anything, just polished on a buffing wheel to mirror finish. It isn't absolutely perfect though - as with natural materials.

The only problem is, I'm never going to use it (I'm sure it could handle it).

The blade is a mite under 4 inches and the handle a smidge over 5. It's also shaped to be more comfy in the hand.

It has no sheath at the moment, but I can discuss this if you're interested.

I'll offer a refund to any purchaser not happy with it.

I feel that as this is where I learned my trade, I'll offer it here first.

So - £60 plus postage of your choice.

Any takers?

I'm after a Swanndri ranger in large, possibly medium (40 chest), a sabre 30 in black or green or something along those lines. I'm open to offers of swaps.

Richeadon,

can you post a couple more pictures - one of the whole knife along the spine and one of the reverse side. Can you confirm the hardness of the blade edge?

Cheers

Thanks,

for the extra pics it looks fantastic, though not what I'm after.
I'm sure someone will be lucky enough to buy this.

Cheers
