Whoa! I didn't know Mr. Reeve had a model like that! Looks like a very suitable woodsman's piece. Specs please?

Now where might I have seen that before?

That's a proper bit of kit if ever there was.

zzzzzzz...

here's a pic of an early Jimmy Lile knife originally given to Newt Livesay by Jimmy Lile. Jimmy's passed on, but both were Arkansas knife makers.

Cy,

Nice piece as well, a rustic looker that sceams functionality from every angle. This post definitely made my day!

(BTW, I'm also a long time lurker over at BB! Cheers!)

Cy,
Good one!
Jimmy Lile is one of my favourites, and I really, really regret passing a sale of one of his mint folders that a collector was selling, but I did not have the US$2500-00 he was asking!

Jimmy Lile knife was given to me by Newt Livesay. He warned me not to restore or screw with it, as that would detract from the knife.

here's an early Newt Livesay custom knife made from A2 laminated tool steel with red carbon disc, iron wood and Mexican peso.
