Description: Allen Elishewitz is well known throughout the knife industry for creating high quality custom folders. An ex-recon marine and martial arts expert, it's no surprise Allen has produced many award-winning blades that have been featured in countless magazines. He became a member of the American Knifemakers Guild in 1994 and was the youngest Guild Member at that time. He currently serves on the Board of the Guild as a director.
This custom knife set made by Allen is a homage to the British EK Commando knife used throughout World War II. The set includes a matching EK Dagger fixed blade and folder with matching materials in each set. According to Allen, these sets were a limited edition of 15 sets and will not be created again! This set has been in a private collection and has been meticulously cared for. By all appearances, Allen could have made the set yesterday.
The fixed blade features a 5 inch CTS-XHP dagger ground blade, hardened to 58-60 Hrc. This premium US-made steel is an air hardening, high carbon, high chromium, corrosion resistant alloy. This knife will have exceptional edge holding! A black snow finish gives the knife a unique antique look. Both edges of the dagger are fully sharpened. Lava Flow FatCarbon scales are set on the full tang. Jimping along the tang provides additional grip. A lanyard can be added to the back of the knife. The contouring of the scales is reminiscent of the original EK Commando dagger. The dagger features an overall length of 10 inches. A leather sheath with an Ulti clip keeps the dagger close at hand.
The folder feautures a 4 inch CTS-XHP dagger ground blade. The top edge stops just short of being fully sharpened. The blade can be opened easily using the ambidextrous thumb disc. The perfectly centered blade has silky-smooth action. Matching Lava Flow FatCarbon scales are set on jimped titanium liners. The folder features an overal length of 9 inches. A deep carry pocket clip keeps the knife easy to keep close at hand.
A handmade wooden box, also made by Allen is included to display the knives together. The set also includes a sheath for the fixed blade and a pouch for the folder.
Exceptional work throughout!
