Hi y'all, got a little beauty up for sale today.
Murray Carter Custom Neck Knife (Hitachi White) - $160
Fair warning, really on the fence about letting this one go, so might withdraw it at any time. So pretty I haven’t been able to bring myself to use it. Hand-made early model from the Murray Carter shop - another user believes it was made by a senior apprentice rather than Mr. Carter himself, but the quality is unassailable in any event. Hitachi white with a stainless cladding (not sure what exact stainless steel) with desert ironwood handles and tapered tang. 4 1/2" long overall, about 2” edge. A few micro-scratches in the cladding from the kydex neck sheath (fits snug as hell).
Blade was ferric chloride etched to bring out the contrast in steels, and edge was hand sharpened by previous owner (the illustrious @Gary W. Graley - previous sales post for transparency: https://www.bladeforums.com/threads/sold-murray-carter-mini-neck-knife-in-ironwood-scales.1659644/) and not used since then (check out the slicey slicey video GG shot). Shoot any questions my way, and thanks for looking!
