1) All knives are MAKE AN OFFER. Any offer is welcome; I won't be offended by lowballs.
2) If I think it's too low I'll decline and I'll add a post saying, for example, "I turned down $5." If no one else makes an offer I'll know I should have taken the $5!
3) If it sells I'll post the sale price.
4) Shipping in the CONUS is $3.
5) Any knife can be returned for a refund.
Cash, check, PayPal (F&F). Offers by email preferred ([email protected]) but PM is OK.
This is Hen & Rooster Whittler model 263-DS that is in mint (let's call it near mint) condition; never sharpened, never carried. All blades have good strong snap both opening and closing. Handles are stag. I couldn't capture the tang stamp because of reflections but it has the hen & rooster on the mark side and "GERMAN/STAINLESS/HAND MADE/263-DS" on the pile side. The other blades are also marked "GERMAN/STAINLESS/HAND MADE/263-DS."
There is a hint of oxidation on the secondary blades. They look great but under a loupe you can see they are not uniformly shiny. No blade wobble, no pin cracks. Brass liners.
As a starting point for thinking about offers, you can buy this knife new from various sources for about $50 (+or -). Thanks,
Dennis
Note: Of course you are welcome to add a post saying "Email sent," or "PM sent," or whatever, but that is not essential. If you send an offer I'll get it and respond to you promptly. FYI, I check for emails more frequently than I check for PMs.
