Hi I only have one green micarta handled knife left . Iv sold 2 dymond wood( green and black) And one black linen . Some guys have bought with out sheaths and some have bought completed knives . It's all the same to me if you would like to buy just parts that's great . When I was wrapping one last night iv just ran it over the steel to make sure it was sharp and with a flick of the wrist it sliced to the bone on my thumb. There sharp so be carful , if your making a sheath your self please make sure it's good thick leather as a sheath is not just a handy place to keep a knife it's what s -

Hi guys here are the latest batch to be completed. I had a fire in my workshop today and lost all extraction so work has stopped till thats fixed!! I have also had massive problems with the agent I imported the handle materials from he has left me hanging for over two weeks with no actual delivery time yet (I paid to get it here faster) So Ive had to raid a knife maker friends supplies and buy up what synthetics he had. lucky for you there all really high quality , bad news for me they cost a lot more and all take a lot more labour to use and finish . Long story short IV lost over £ -

Thank you fellas , I really like the finished look . I was referencing mine against other knives and they really do offer good value . Iv been badly let down but the handle company/importers so iv had to buy in 20+ sets of micarta and dymond wood scales just to get this next 20 finished . Il not be offering them finished in those materials as there is to much labour involved . ( iv just lost £440 having to switch for this group) I won't be passing that cost on to you guys the price will still be £120 delivered . You will have to wait about 2 more weeks if you want one finished in the s -

As a start they will all have the same handle material . I will post pics in a min of the first finished One that sold in minuets yesterday . I should have 24 more by the weekend . I will continue to sell them as first come first serve as its the fairest way to do it . If folks want " different handles , then I'm happy to sell blanks and sheaths with the correct pins and lanyard . That way you can handle them yourself or get someone to do it for you !! But I think you will like the finished product iv chosen a material that will not break ,warp ,move or absorb water , blood, etc And it's -

Yep as a completed product , I'm waiting for handle materials to arrive from the states . They should be in the uk by now it's just how long it takes for them to get to me !! It's taken something like 9 weeks waiting to get all the work done and materials gathered !! As soon as it gets here all I will be doing until the materials runs out is Finnished knives . I have something like 20 orders and I will have 25 finnished knives . The goal is to have all 25 for sale in one group by the weekend !! All the best , matt -

The good thing with fieldcrafter-uk will be that If your sheath does die unexpectedly ( you loose it or damage it ) you can buy another to replace it !! -
What does that mean mate ?

It's a spray on silicone wax , nothing to exciting Info on the sheaths is 3.5mm died through shoulder . Double Stitched with doubled over pre waxed nylon thread . Riveted belt loop . 3.5mm welt glued and stitched by hand . Died again to colour the fresh cut edges , dried for 5 hours in warm environment and waxed . I'm really happy with them . Should last a very long time ! The black is less prone to showing wear over the years to I believe . A little dubbing from the new owner once or twice a year and I'm sure they will stand the test of time . -

Thanks fellas they cost me well over £20 each before grinding and polishing . Your getting free post and pins/lanyard for your £40 and they combined are probably worth £8 So as you can see it really is rock bottom price . Anyone that got them before at the old price got an incredible deal one I can't offer again !!! I'm sure some folks don't want the hassle of finishing it them selves , but as soon as the materials arrive that's what will be on offer ! All the best , matt -
