Bill Ruple Custom Handmade 2-Blade Folding Knife. Damascus Blades Fancy Filework Excellent Condition. Custom 2-blade slipjoint folding knife handmade by Bill Ruple of Pleasanton, Texas. Bill has been a custom knife maker since 1988 and serves on the Board of Directors of the Texas Knifemakers and Collectors Association. His specialty is multi-blade slipjoint folders, and this is just a beautiful example of Bill’s work! This knife features two blades of ladder Damascus steel, amber stag handles (I believe), and simply gorgeous fancy filework along the spine. M easures about 4″ closed and 7-1/4″ opened. See the pictures to judge the condition of the knife for yourself; I would call it excellent condition; appears unused. The polished bolsters have some very minor marks. No box or paperwork, but will come in a Bill Ruple logo padded zipper pouch. This knife is from an estate sale; see my other auctions for more knives from this collection by a longtime knife collector. From a smoke-free and pet-free home.
