This handy little knife is remarkable for its design, its execution, the unusual carrying arrangement and the almost unbelievably low price.
It was inspired by a 1970s Loveless design. The New York Special is made of D2 steel at a hardness of 60-61 Rc, with handle scales of black Micarta® and comes complete with a unique carrying harness invented by Bob Dozier. This carrying strap fastens to your belt just behind your right hip, crosses your back to go over your left shoulder and fastens to your belt about four inches to the left of your buckle. The special Kydex® sheath then is adjusted to the correct level and the knife is instantly available to your hand. This arrangement does not cut off your circulation or constrict the movement of your arms as do other harnesses.
This is a genuine handmade knife which we are able to sell to you at a price that compares favorably with some of the factory knives which are being sold today. 7-3/8" total length, 3-3/8" clip point blade made of D2 steel. This knife comes with a full tang and black Rucarta™ scales with a finger groove. Weighs 4.3 oz. including Kydex® sheath and shoulder strap.
If a Dozier knife is not in stock when you order, delivery typically takes 3 to 4 months.
