This knife came with no sheath so I made one for it. The knife is used but in very good condition. The edge is perfect and very sharp. Blade: Hollow grind 4 inches long. Blade thickness: 4 1/2 mm. Blade width: 1 1/2 inches. Thumb notches over the spine. Weight: 10.5 Oz. I found this info about the maker. Stuart Ackerman wrote: I knew Harry for over twenty years… He was a friend of mine… He was tall and had had an interesting life… And very helpful to anyone who wanted to know how to make knives… I have one of only ten folders that he made, and a very thin skinning knife… I believe that he has died recently, but no other details…- I met Harry in the early 80s at his workshop in Mercury lane, near 320 West Street. I did not see him again until he moved to his next last workshop in 25 Cato Street, above the Durban Battery Centre. Small workshop, but out of it, wonderful knives oozed out. He liked making big knives, because he had big hands, but he was equally capable of making camping and bird knives. He never felt that he was worthy of being in the Guild, and he wanted his knives to be used. He used whatever he could get, and most of his stuff was 440B, 440C and D2, and later on, N690, which was the equivalent of VG10. 12C27 as well for smaller stuff, because it was only available in 2.5mm. Handles were Micarta, Pakkawood, natural woods and horns. He loved used Buffalo Horn. Grinds were mostly hollow, on a 14 inch wheel, but flat grinds were done if you asked him nicely. Mostly pinning and peening for scales, and stainless and nickel silver for guards and bolsters. Swords, Bowies, skinning axes/hatchets, and knives of all sorts and sizes. If you could draw it, he could make it. I last saw him in 1999, he was around 72. The item “VINTAGE BOSMAN RSA SKINNER KNIFE” is in sale since Friday, December 4, 2020.
