From Chuck’s website… Ever since I can remember I have had a fascination with knives. My grandfather gave me my first pocketknife when I was 5, and it was that moment that did it. I started making knives by taking apart my mothers kitchen knives. My parents thought that there was something “wrong” with me because I had a fascination with sharp objects. That all changed when I took them to a local knife show and showed them a whole room of people interested in knives. I seriously began making knives when I was 16. For the past 10 years I have mainly concentrated on making folding knives and automatics. I mainly concentrate on making one-of-a-kind folding knives of my own design, but I do occasionally make a few fixed blades. I was the winner of the best custom folder award at the 2004 Shenandoah Valley Knife show. I was the winner of the best custom folder award at the 2007 Wolverine Knife show. I specialize in unique filework patterns, and I also do simple carving and some of my own sheath work. For steels I mostly use Damascus, but also use 154CM, CPM154, D-2, 1095, W-2 and others. This is Chuck’s small Mongoose folder. This knife is brand new, direct from Chuck’s shop. Windy City Knives is privileged to be an authorized dealer for Chuck Gedraitis Knives. The knife features a Razor Wire stainless steel Damascus blade, bronze front bolster, carbon fiber scales, black Micarta backspacer, and Timascus pocket clip.

And the blade length should be attractive to those of you who live in certain areas, or have concerns, about carrying large blades. It comes in a padded, zippered case. Direct from the maker.
