Turkish twist damascus and mammoth ivory bark fruit knife

From time to time I make something other than razors, mainly to do something useful with leftover pieces of steel that I can't really use for razors. I've made a couple and want to move them because now they're just sitting here. I don't have a good grasp on what a good price would be so I am leaving it to the people to decide and run this as an auction. The starting price is the price of the materials + shipping. That way at least I'll have recovered the materials.

This auction will run as specified in the rules. Starting price is 125 USD. Shipping is included in the price. It will run for 3 days from today.
Payment is via bitcoin or paypal. Payment in bitcoin gets 5% discount because then I don't have to pay the paypal fee.

This is a fruit knife I made some time ago. The steel is Turkish twist Damascus made by Ed Schempp. The handle is bark of fossilized mammoth tusk.
It's ideal for peeling apples or such, but like a gentleman of course :)

I will take this one
I wh

That's the starting bid then.
This is an auction that runs for 3 days so the next person can place a higher bid.

Ok to clarify and avoid discussion: The auction will run to June 7th, 21:00 Pacific Daylight time.

This is very high quality material in both the steel and the handle material .

You guys better jump on this. I would but I have bids in on his other 2 knives.

Randy I don' t know if you saw that razor I sold to Bill Watkins in February at the meet. This is the same steel.

I bid $150.

Yes, thank you Bruno!
