Recently Arley put a knife up for sale that I liked but it sold quickly. Arley and I talked and he made this beauty for me.

Custom Leather Sheath

Ebony Scales

The scales are the same wood that used to be used on piano keys. He had a hard time working on them because of how dense the wood is. But they should last a long time.

Great work and a great knife.

Matt, knives to me are like guns to you. Always looking for the next one. Except, I rarely part with a knife.

Beautiful Damascus, A. Not a fan of leather sheats, but great job there too.
Will you carry it? :decisions, decisions...;)
Enjoy it!

Exactly what are you trying to say, Andy? ;)

Actually, I'm finally to a point where I know what I like and I love what I have. The downside to that is I have nothing left to sell so whatever I acquire going forward is coming out of pocket. I know, I know, what I bought then sold came out of pocket too but somehow it never felt that way - lol.

What concerns me is how much I'm looking forward to getting that Perrin Street Bowie ... I feel I'm on the precipice of "next."

Very Nice Andy,

Matt and Barbie just make yourself a list, and buy one at a Time..........


BTW Matt we all know why you cant buy a knife last time you bought one you thought you were Crocodile Dundee and your better half confiscated it from you:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::D

Barbie,

I'm carrying it now. Also, the pictures don't do the ebony justice. It's really nice in my hand.

With the others? You'll need to gain weight to accommodate everything around the waist! :)
Not sure...you posted dimensions? Blade? Overall? Handle thickness?

That's how it's been done, m'dear... problem is unplanned additions to the list.... Not this one. I'm not a Damascus fan but just last weekend Scott made me add new knife and corresponding sheath.. I just have to stay away this bunch to respect my priorities... :p

First priority should be a 1911. May I suggest a K----- since you are both from F------ and we are an oppressed minority! :D

Good looking knife Andy. I know it won't lie around waiting to be carried. Wear it in good health!
