These two have been in the collection for a few years and while i love them they are more show pieces for me than anything. Taking a long vacation and decided to move these. Not looking for trades.
$2000 for 141. 323 has sold. Includes all fees and shipping conus. I can send videos if you pm me your email. Tims stamp rules but for now there only posted here as id rather see a suspect with them. Happy 4th everyone.
1. Grimsmo norseman 142. Acidwash rwl-34 blade and bronze anno and copper inlays. Has patina on copper and has seen some use. Very minimal though and has been a safe queen for the last few years. The grip the copper adds is perfect and touching the oils on your hands keeps he patina changing all the time. The colors get simply stunning. The lockup and action are blissful. Locks up rock solid like its welded open. And the blade flies open so easily i cant even compare it anything else. Its the beat action of any knife ive ever handled. The blade will fall closed on itself and your fingers if your not careful and if you tighten the picot just a little it will slow down to a perfect speed for edc use imo. The anno and acidwash are very good and not showing wear and looking fancy all at the same time. This is the very knife john did a youtube video of explaining how he did the copper work. That video was the one that made him blow up there. So the infamous first copper inlay can be seen there being made also.
Im going to add videos as soon as i figure out how to do so.
2. Sold
norseman 323. Polish rwl-34 blade and has blue anno and copper inlay. A coating was put on the copper to prevent patina but some has rubbed off on the tips of the copper from pocket and case rubbing. Has very little use but has been used. The patina on just the tips is a nice green and looks great. This one is the second copper inlay and last. John has said he hates working with the copper and does. Ot want to make another. Although we joke about it often. The lockup and action on this one are also amazing. Blade flys out and closes very smooth. Not quite free falling but close. I mike that better than worrying about loosing my finger tip. The clip, spacers and thumbstud are a gold/bronze color and match 141. Sold
