Product description

Item DescriptionUp for sale is an investment-grade collector’s piece representing the rare, early work of iconic master knifemaker R.J. Martin. Handcrafted in 1992 during his highly collectible early custom fixed-blade era, this classic drop-point hunter features stunning genuine stag bone scales with a deep, dark-burnt contrast texturing.This package is completely unpolished and unrestored, remaining exactly as it was found to preserve maximum vintage collector value.

Blade Condition:
Excellent vintage condition. The original factory vertical satin grind lines remain crisp and completely undisturbed. The cutting edge bevel is smooth, straight, and entirely free of micro-chips or sharpening scratches. The tip is perfectly intact. Note: As shown in the photos, there is a small, dark aging/pepper spot on the upper portion of the blade and a couple of faint hairline scuffs near the tip, These are surface-level only and completely standard for an untouched custom steel of this 30+ years.

Handle Condition:
The genuine stag bone scales are in exceptional shape with zero hairline cracks around the hardware or pin shrinkage. The bone scales provide a tight, completely flush fit against the brushed bolsters with no gapping. Features an integrated lined lanyard hole.

Sheath Condition:
Includes the original, matching custom leather pouch sheath in 100% untouched, unconditioned original state. All heavy-duty perimeter stitching and the protective leather welt are completely intact and structurally sound. Note: There is a minor, superficial surface crack on the reverse side of the leather (fully disclosed in photos) which does not affect the structural integrity or the snug friction-fit of the knife.
