Custom Folder by John Hoskins Cheney, Wa.
Walrus Ivory Scimshaw Scales Circa 1984
Description: Sold...ME...A fine custom folding knife with interchangable blades by John Hoskins of Cheney, Wa. Only 3 of these were made on custom order for a client. It has a clip point and a drop point blade measuring 3 3/4 inches and both blades are mint and both are numbered #3 matching the knife. Detailed beautiful scrimshaw on antique walrus ivory scales. Bear Lake Lodge was started as a Big Game Hunting & Fishing Lodge in Alaska in 1957 by Don Johnson. The scrimshaw depicts a float plane coming into the lodge as 2 grizzlies watch. These knives were commisioned by a friend of mine and i have that provenance for the buyer...Milltown Trading Co. was his business in Alaska at the time. The ivory was repaired on the back edge of the scales...small spot. This knife has never been used and both blades retain their original edge put on by Hoskins. The drop point blade still has the original tape put on by Hoskins. The scales have an inset dovetail on the front edge. Inside the mainspring the knife is dated and numbered. Function, fit and finish done by a master knife maker. The scabbard looks to be made of moose hide or deer hide and is very soft. A beautiful custom folder by a famous maker. USPS Priority mail is 10.00 SOLD |
