Hi Ollie,

Yes please, if not already taken. I will have a look and see what I can find to offer up. Bare with me, it is a busy weekend.

So looking at the rambo knives in the classifieds, recently got me thinking about my youth, and the knives I had.

Keeping with the rambo theme, I have this knife available for any takers.....stainless steel, and there is a makers mark, but difficult to see.

This is a tough fun knife that holds a okay edge, needs a new sheath. Ideal for medium sized hands

I have very limited access to the post office so will aim to get it sent as soon as I can

Sorry for the delay, so I have not been able to have a real dig around, but I did find this rather nice tear drop throwing knife, that is up for grabs.

Bic pen for scale, it has a 3.5mm thick blade stock, 440 steel, and completely brand new, bought from a French gun shop many years ago and never used. Comes with original sheath that has ties, so can be carried strapped to the arm.

This feels great in the hand, and feels like it would fly and hit a wooden target very well.

I have limited access to the post office, so bare with me, as likely be able to post in 2 weeks time.

I have to say it warms my heart when I occasionally check in to BCUK (not as often as I would like though) that I find this little ol post is still moving along, sharing the love (despite the odd grumble because people are impatient of course)


It really makes me feel that the world is still a good place despite our current challenges

Ok. See if anyone fancies this. God knows where I picked it up, obviously intending to give it some TLC and make it nice again. It's a nice Sheffield steel locking pocket knife by George Ibberson. Its a very tidy little thing with a good solid lock up and no blade play. Actually quite sharp although I've never sharpened it since I got it. Needs some polish and some love to make it pocket-worthy again. Obviously its not legal carry without good reason due to the lock, but the blade is well under 3".

Thanks to Graham for the thrower. Arrived safe and sound.
No takers on this? Ok I'll have a look for something else you may prefer.
Last chance on this one

Right, the knife is now withdrawn and replaced with this swivel-bladed modelling knife. I used it a couple of times for kolrosing but I can't get on with it as the handle is just too skinny for my huge paws. The tiny triangular blade and the white blade holder swivel around within the aluminium handle. It does make it possible to cut some very tight curves quite smoothly into wood so definitely suited to kolrosing patterns and script. Just couldn't see the tip under my hand well enough to control it. I'm sure someone with smaller hands will find it perfect. Its free so what do you have to lose anyway?
