ProfessionalSoldiers.com KNIFE SALE!!!
ProfessionalSoldiers.com KNIFE SALE
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Quiet Professionals of PS.com asked Bill Harsey to design a smaller, frame-handled version of the immensely successful and highly acclaimed Yarborough Knife, which is presented to graduates of the Special Forces qualification course.
The knife was designed to be compact, discreet, and concealable, but fully capable of a variety of routine field tasks like skinning, food preparation, and fine detailed knife work. At the same time, it was to be easily attached to load bearing equipment, or concealed for multiple low-profile carry options. It was intended to be complementary to the Yarborough or Green Beret Knife, and the Professional Soldiers knife achieves that goal magnificently.
The product of Bill’s labor was delivered to Chris Reeve to be carved out of steel, because of Chris Reeve Knives’ reputation for meticulous manufacturing, unsurpassed quality, and attention to detail on previous projects. Chris added the slotted frame handle, designed to reduce weight and to assist with the functions of tightening and loosening shackles, O2 valves, etc. The knife is made from the same special steel as the Yarborough, Crucible’s CPM-S30V, which is tough, durable, stain and rust resistant, and holds an edge like nothing else. It is finished with a non-glare KG coat, one of the finest industrial coatings in the world today.
The blade is 3.375” of razor sharp steel, the overall length of the knife is a tightly packaged 7.25”, and the weight is just an incredible 3 ounces.
The sheath was created and manufactured by Blade Tech, one of the leaders in the field of Kydex molded holsters, sheaths, etc.
The no frills, no BS knife was named after the first recipients of the knife - the Special Forces soldiers of ProfessionalSoldiers.com.
The result is the blade you see below.
Only 100 serial numbered knives have been made and those serialized PS knives are available only through ProfessionalSoldiers.com.
The price is $225 ea. (+ $5.00 shipping & handling)
All proceeds will go to keeping this website up and running.
We will take checks or money orders payable to;
“Professional Soldiers”
Address is;
Professional Soldiers
PO Box 271
Litchfield Park, AZ

The knives are numbered 0001-0100

Just so everyone knows the Special Forces soldiers had first shot at the knives and serial numbers. About half have been sold in a few weeks.
We will entertain serial number requests but you'd better have a few in mind many of the knives are already gone.
Some of the SF soldiers are asking for knives that have their ODA numbers in them so the entire 0001-0100 have been picked through.

As some know I was gone for a few weeks and have now returned.
All that have ordered knives in that time period they are going to be in the mail today.  (unless I get run over by a mail truck)
There's only a few dozen left......

Team Sergeant,
Looking at your 16 Aug 08 post you had 084, and 065 available. Is that still accurate? I was in the middle of MOBing and have been off the internet for a few months so I missed when the offer first came out? If one of those are not available, I would still like to get one of the remaining.
Thanks,
NSDQ
