Interesting prices,makes the 25th anniversary Woodlore that isn't getting a nibble on BB at £450 the bargain of 2012 so far.

 

[HillBill]

Thats ridiculous. Whoever ( if anyone) buys them, then they have more money than sense.

I also noticed the blade hardness at being 56 - 58? Whats all that about then? You'd expect them to be 58/59.

Makes the ones Martin's been selling look like an absolute steal!

£800!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I got two.......

Its a fine line between a reputation of quality knives by a top maker and just a rip off merchant taking advantage of people with little experiance other than the fact RM uses one. Still nice tho

Just do what I do and say it's the same one, but in another place.

Luckily for me JD, my wife isn't a member of this forum nor does she read it either... unlike your Emma... you're busted mate

Brass bolsters?

 

[Trunks]

Am I right in assuming that these are numbers 1 & 2 of the Alan wood produced knives?

If so, in terms of "collectibles", you would probably get a good return in a few years time.

Hmm, I might have to take advantage of the new £20,000 credit card limit Virgin have just given me!!!!!

My wife has given up asking what parcels go in and out of here, when something knife shape turns up and she answers the door to the postman I say its a referb or it needs a sheath made, poor woman!!!

That's how I read it, still stupid money for a knife though, however you try and butter it up.

Great knife Rob, I have one and it feels very 'alive' it a way that the SWC knife just doesn't!
