The blade is 5"-6" in length and will have a sheath (still working the details out on the sheath). He is 'raffling' it off - donors will have 1 chance for each $5 donation a person makes to our campaign (e.g. a $5 donation will have one entry, a $15 donation will have 3 entries, etc)

Just dropping in to bump up the knife

This model is a Gent's EDC (Everyday Carry) that goes very well for those situations where the bowie just seems a little bit out of place. Originally designed to go with suits it works well in any situation calls for a little something to cut with.

The blade is CPM-154, an American made stainless steel. Bolsters and pins are 416 stainless. The handle material is Desert Ironwood burl, an extremely rare wood as not only does Desert Ironwood rarely burl it is also a protected species here and in Mexico. The only way to legally gather the wood is from dead falls. It then takes up to ten years to dry enough for use. This is the second densest wood in the world and has a beauty to match. The pieces on this blade are presentation quality, the highest. The picture doesn't truly capture the fire in the wood.

And don't let the guys have all the fun, this fits in a Lady's hand or purse just as well

Jim - that's a beautiful knife! My dad collects pocket knives and they can be so lovely. Truly works of art!

Thanks to our generous MouseScrappers designers and friends who have donated these awesome incentive prizes!
