Knife List #15

Knife List No. 15

The following items are being placed for sale from my personal collection. I guarantee all items to be authentic and as described. I give a three (3) business day inspection period with any purchase. If you are not happy with the knife for any reason please return it for a full refund. No reasons needed, just contact me to let me know it is coming back. If you need to return a knife please ship it insured as we can not be responsible for the postal company chosen.  I prefer payment by PayPal, but will accept Money Order or Certified Check.  I also accept personal checks but I have to wait 10 days or more to see if they clear if we have not done business before.
