What is a knife like this worth?

Post by lenny357 »

TIM BRITTON: SWAYBACK FOLDER, 3" Wharncliffe blade, stainless steel front bolster, Sanbar Stag handle, BG-42, satin finish, back spacer and bolsters are all 416 Stainless Steel..


I like this and am worried that once this guy becomes more popular I will have wished I got this knife. What ya all think?

$325 ya I like it alot I guess I wanted to know if anyone else has seen his work. Is it up to par with other custom knife makers seems to be a good price.

If you want to get custom knifes, I think that you need to pay at least that for good ones...the guy has to make a living.

And your one point....maybe a few years from now they will be going for a grand!

I am new to this but the knife looks fine to me.

He is already popular, he's been at it a long time. A bargain I think!

Just came in the mail! Wow it is a Bargain nice knife very happy with it. It was lacking some of the knife options that I like, like..no Half Stop, Liners not milled (Tang will scratch when opened/closed), BUT other than that top knotch product. The Stag is awsome and he really cleans the valleys out nice to make it really narly looking. Well worth the price and looked better than the picture. :mrgreen: my pictures will be in the Stag thread. (THe Epic Stag thread)

Lenny that's a good price for a custom knife and it really has some nice stag on it. I'm a firm believer if a knife really catches your eye, buy it. ::tu:: ::nod::
RIP Johnnie Rotten

So far, so good...So What!!

Tim Britton's advertised prices are about the best you can find on a custom. I haven't actually seen one in person but I have been eyeballing that same knife for a while. I plan on attending the AG Russell knife event in a couple weeks to look over some custom knives and if I don't see anything there that I like better that is affordable, I might order something from Britton's web site.
A life without pocketknives is dull and pointless.
