The ongoing (rather desultory) liquidation of my collection continues;these are probably the last of the fixed blades I'll be selling for a while. Folding knives will follow in a few days, then sharpening stones/axes/etc a few days after that.

Paypal or USPS money order; I'll consider offers on multiple items, or trade offers for stuff I can use (am mostly stepping away from knife collecting now, but still shooting). Shipping (via USPS in Priority Mail flat-rate boxes) not included in price. If you are outside the US, PM me and we can try to work something out as far as shipping, etc.

Western "Shark" (G46-6) pattern from later WWII-era Blade measures a bit over 5 3/4", about 10 1/4" overall. No sheath. Missing a half-washer on one side, pommel and iron crossguard are still tight. Pommel drilled for a lanyard. Traces of the original blue remain on the blade (but not much). $35+shipping.
8140


Western bird & trout Blade measures 4 1/4", a tad under 8" overall. No sheath. No missing washers, pommel is a bit dinged up. $18+shipping.
8141



Western bird & trout Blade measures 3 1/8" (but check the pic: the blade is tipped and needs re-ground), about 7" overall. No sheath. The handle on this one fits an adult hand fairly well--better than most of the knives this size. $18+shipping.
8142



Early West-Cut, in a Western States-marked sheath Judging from catalog illustrations and construction details, it dates to 1925-1935, prior to the introduction of the bifurcated tang. Very heavily worn; the blade measures just over 4", overall about 8 1/2". Handle is some sort of composition material (not celluloid) ; I'm still trying to find a broken example to get analyzed to determine what it is. $30+shipping.
8144



Western G46-8 Blade is 8", overall is 13", no sheath. (This one was WWII-production for private sale to members of the military. If you like big knives, this is a good choice. Some blue remaining on blade, with a couple minor spots of past rust. Handle is tight (unusual for a Western this old) but a couple of the washers have split and are missing (see second pic). Not a perfect example, but the price reflects that. $70+shipping.

8148


Western-made, but marked for Coast Cutlery Co. of Portland OR, small bird & trout knife Blade now measures a bit over 2 1/8", 6" overall. In original sheath, with small tear or cut where the knife goes in (in the pic, near the top rivet). $25+shipping.

As always, thanks for looking!

Since the goal is to get these moved off my desk, for now I'll offer the group at $100+shipping.
