Thank you for your interest in this excellent condition knife from The Brian Sorenson (Ivoryman) Knife Collection. This Northwoods Bear Lake pattern knife is manufactured by GEC and is 3.625" long and comes with the original packing materials, coin or leather slip missing. The natural kudu stag covers have a small pin crack on right mark side. The unsharpened and unused sheep foot blade with a half stop snaps firmly when opened and closed with zero side-to-side play when fully extended. The forced patina on the blade was done by Ivoryman for both aesthetics and preservation and there are several methods that can be used to remove it with varying levels of abrasiveness and ease if desired. The steel liners, pins and frame and nickel silver bolsters are in commensurate condition with the grade of this knife.

It's my 5th year Anniversary and beach vacation month, but I'm throwing down a $350 bid on this knife. Blame it on Coley. 
Pocket, fixed, machete, axe, it's all good!

That is such a nice knife! Great pattern, gorgeous stag, Wharncliffe, and it's a Northwoods! Can't go wrong.
Congrats on making it to the 5 year mark
