KNIFE SALES
Note that in order to comply with UK law I will only sell knives to persons over 18. If you are a new customer or are otherwise unknown to me please do not be offended if I ask for proof of age.
As a collector myself I know that finances can at times be tight and we may not always be able to buy what we want. However I have had a couple of instances recently where I have gone to the trouble of getting postage and insurance quotes and the deal struck with payment promised. Only for the potential buyer to back out at the very last minute and in one instance I had in the meantime told a regular customer that the piece had sold. I am always happy to co-operate and work with serious buyers if for more expensive items a payment plan is in order.
It is also worth mentioning for overseas buyers (i.e. outside of the EU) that I will work with you in terms of customs forms and value. Items will always be sent by tracked a signed for, where it is available for your country. However note that insurance can be very expensive but if you choose not to take it or wish it at a low value it would be at your risk.

Original 1942 dated 2nd Pattern F-S drawing.
I am lucky enough to own the original Wilkinson tracing drawing of the 2nd Pattern F-S produced in 1942. Some years ago I did a limited number of reprints of this drawing but since then it has been filed away. If there is sufficient interest I will look to redo the reprints at full size. The size being 23.5 inches by 33 inches. A copy of the drawing is shown below. Price including UK postage will be £22. Prices for overseas vary depending on USA, Australia, Europe. will get postage once I know your location. I can also do this drawing in A3 though price remains the same i.e. £22.
