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

Note from seller:

"This knife is part of a collection of knives which are now regretfully being liquidated due to a medical hardship. Rainy, whom I believe is one of the finest auto knifemakers in the world, was privately commissioned by me to create this collection. Most importantly, since I desired to have a very unique collection of autos, I personally secured all materials. Those materials included each set of presentation grade handles, the damascus, steel, screws and I even hand picked in New York the premium grade gemstones used in the knifes. In all reality, these are not just custom knives - but honestly a true creation of knife art. Finally, all knives have been stored in the open position in glass cases since the day I received them."
Rainy's experience with gemstones is featured in the article "Goo-Goo-Eyed for Gemstone Knives" in the Knives 2010 annual. This knife is from the collection referenced in the article and a fine example of Rainy's beautiful work with stones.

This large Icepick leaf-spring automatic features a damascus blade, damascus double bolsters, and mammoth tooth scales. Dagger-style blade with a false top edge and serrations on both edges. Green cat's eye inlay on bolster. Yellow sapphire inlays on backspacer. Mokume push button. File work on backspacer and all around the liners. Strong and fast action. Beautiful materials. Excellent work. Mint condition. Blade Steel: Chad Nichols Damascus
