Sold Guycep Fixed Blade Knife

[ANDYLASER]

I am offering this very early fixed blade knife by remowned UK maker Guy Stainthorp.
I got this from Guy at he 2006 Leeds Spyderco meet up. Blade is O1 and has an absolutely amazing hamon
The knife is 160mm long with a 70mm blade. I am unsure of the wood used for the handle.
Guys latest knives command a deservedly high price, this early piece from his exceptional career is therefore quite rare and should appeal to collectors of his work.

I would like £125 which includes insured and signed for postage.
EDIT: £115 £110
**SOLD**

Bump and a slight reduction.

Pardon my ignorance, but what is a "hamon"?

"hamon"

“A visual result of the temperature process”

Yes, its the patterning along the blade edge from the heat treatment and quenching process.
This has become an "art form" amongst the more skilled smiths.

Good grief.... Was the Leeds meet 14 years ago.

Bit of a bargain there for someone
