Layaway Information

Layaway Policies

We offer a layaway plan on select products so you may pay for your order over a period of 60 days. Products that are eligible for layaway will show "Layaway Available: Yes" on the product page.

Here's how it works:

The total amount of the order excluding shipping, tax, or fees is divided into three (3) equal payments. The first payment is due with the order, the second payment is due 30 days later, and the final payment is due 60 days after the order.

There is a $15 non-refundable fee for layaway orders. This fee is added to the first payment along with the shipping and any tax. The first payment is made when the order is placed.

Example: Your order total is $300 plus $12.75 shipping and handling. If you select the layaway option, your payments would be:

  • $127.75 (1/3 of purchase = $100 + $15 layaway fee + $12.75 shipping)
  • $100.00 (1/3 of purchase = $100)
  • $100.00 (1/3 of purchase = $100)

If your initial payment is made by credit card, we will automatically process the 2nd and 3rd payments at the appropriate time using the same credit card information. You will be reminded via email that a payment will be charged. If you need to change this for any reason, please contact us.

For payments made other than credit card, payment must be received within seven (7) days of the due date or the order is subject to cancellation. You will receive a reminder via email that a payment is due.

If you wish to complete payment early and have your order shipped, you may contact us at any time during the 60 day period. There is no penalty for prepayment.

Additional products may be added to a layaway order without penalty. A new payment schedule will be calculated based on when additional products are added.

If you wish to complete payment early and have your order shipped, you may contact us at any time during the 60 day period. There is no penalty for early payment.

Cancellations of layaway orders are subject to a restocking/processing fee of 10% of the order total (not including tax and shipping costs). This restocking fee is in addition to the $15 non-refundable layaway fee.

Overview

Mastersmith Bill Burke created this exceptional utility knife with the idea of creating a perfect every day carry knife. The 52100 carbon steel blade was triple quenched and triple tempered for grain refinement and optimal edge holding, .101" blade stock and .891" blade depth, full tang construction. Many makers and collectors feel that 52100 is among the best steels available for knifemaking. A differential heat treatment ensures strength and durability. The lightning strike carbon fiber handle is nicely rounded for a sure, comfortable grip. Copper strands are interwoven throughout the carbon fiber weave. This type of carbon fiber was originally designed for use on fighter jets to redirect electricity. Lightning strike carbon fiber is among the hardest to find knifemaking materials. The knife is accompanied by a sturdy Kydex belt sheath that is sure to keep this knife at the ready when not on display. Adding a Tek-Lok allows for easy belt carry. Adding paracord would allow it to be used as a neck knife. An excellent knife from Bill Burke that is a unique digression from his norm, and truly a hard to find, superior little performer! Excellent condition. Comes with a COA from Blade Gallery.

About the Maker

Burke, Bill

ABS Mastersmith Bill Burke’s first knives were made along side his father at the age of four or five. He continued to make knives through his youth, though it wasn't until 1998 that he started forging. When his first knives failed to hold a good edge, he admitted it was time to swallow his pride and call for some words of advice from the author of "The Knife Forging Bible," Ed Fowler. Since that first call for help in 1998, Bill has been to Ed's home and shop in Riverton, Wyoming many times.
