Stephen Tedford: New never carried or used a great Camp Knife. This is one really pretty and perfectly sized camp knife. The 8 inch blade is hand forged from 1/4 thick steel and mirror polished. OAL is about 13.5 inches. The grip is buffalo horn with silver pins and thong hole. The bolster really sets off the knife and provides a firm grip.

NEW: MATT LAMEY CUSTOM FIGHTER This is a never carried, never used fighter by Matt lamey. Matt's work is spectacular! I own several other Bowies and fighters by him. This one is a fast handling fighter forged from 5160 steel with a stainless guard and micarta grip with a lined thong hole. The 9 inch blade has a beautiful long clip point that is semi-sharp and a primary edge that is razor sharp. The swell at the end of the grip facilitates a technique which increases the blade speed in a cut by pulling with the little finger. Hard to explain but it does work. It comes with a very high quality leather sheath instead of the ubiquitous plastic and kydex sheaths prevalent today. The forward slope of the elegant guard makes for a comfortable thumb rest. This is a very high grade fighting knife that would be hard to upgrade at any price. Price shipped CONUS is $625.00
Matt's knives are selling from $800 to well over $1,000 now. Make me a reasonable offer?

I am selling off some of my Bowie collection to pay for a new addition to my Commando Knife collection. Hate to see them go but I can't afford to keep everything.
No. 1A STAG BOWIE: Perfect to complete that "Cowboy Shooter rig." Another high quality custom Bowie knife. The ricasso is stamped "Byrd". The highly polished blade is just over 9 inches flat ground and very sharp. The long clip is not sharpened. A brass habaki (collar) is fitted to the ricasso. A beautiful german silver guard is expertlt fitted. The handle scales are genuine stag with no cracks and held in place by three nickle silver pins. its original brown leather sheath is included. I am asking $350 NEW SALE PRICE OF $325 shipped CONUS
No. 1b This is not a Brandsetter Bowie, That would cost you well over $800! HALF HORSE-HALF ALLIGATOR BOWIE: This is a nice older British style Bowie, from probably the 1960s. No makers name but really good quality.The 9.75 inch blade is sharp and has a nice long clip on the back edge. The leather sheath has German silver mounts and is very well made and a perfect fit. The scales are tight with no cracks, made from bone, with German silver pins, guard and shield escutcheon. Has a nice patine. An excellent choice if you are into cowboy shooting or reenacting.

NO. 2: This unusual French dagger looks like a flolder and indeed there is a folding model. The hilt is metal painted black with some loss of paint. It is tight with no wiggle. Unfortunately there is no sheath for it. The blade remains unsharpened and is a full 10 inches long with a 5 inch hilt. The crossguard is integral. Price CONUS is reduced to $75 including shipping. It is a very unique piece. It would be easy to remove and repaint the aluminum scales bringing it back to new condition.
NO 3. I might be wrong but I was told this is an Algerian Dagger, could be Spanish, I am not sure. Very well made with a brass sheath. The hilt is made of compositte materials and spacers and is completely tight. Long brass "S" guard. A very nice little dagger with a 6 1/2 inch blade and a 3 1/2 inch hilt.

You will not find another set like this anywhere at any price! "These knives will kill!" LOL The top one is what a Persian Bowie would look like if there was such a thing.
