For those who have not handled a Catcheside before, please let me give you an idea.

He is one of the most accomplished western maker in regards to kitchen knives. This one for sale is not my first one, I still have one and had sold one of his best work a few years ago (please check my past thread here).

His forged geometry is something else, substantial thickness at the spine, thin where it counts, workhorse feel, cuts through food easily and minimal stiction. His heat treatment of O1 is also dialed to perfection, so nice to sharpen,holds edge well, but not brittle.

His hybrid western handle is also a favorite for me; very comfortable on a pinch grip, even on a hammer grip.

I am fairly negotiable on the price, please PM to discuss.

P.S. I am a long time member of this forum, had bought and sold many knives over the years, so nothing to worry about.
 
Price drop to $700 all in, thank you.
 
Final price drop, USD$600 shipped and Paypal fee included.

PM me if you have any questions.
 
This is just a fantastic looking piece. The beauty of Will's work is hard to capture in photos. I have a western hybrid of his that I absolutely adore, I had it out last night enjoying it. The handle on yours in the Business! I love it. I am going to try to shape my next handle like this. GLWS!

Thank you for the kind words. I am a fan of western handle as well.
