Now a handcrafted full-hull solid wood model ship of "Abe", the fifth Nimitz-class aircraft carrier, is available for the first time ever in precise 1/700 scale. More than 18 inches long model ship, this replica is carved by hand from mahogany wood and is heavily detailed with handcast resin and metal pieces. It comes ready to display on an elegant, handmade, furniture-finish 20-inch display base using hand-turned brass pedestals. A brass name plate completes the display. Overall the quality of this model of the modern nuclear-powered ship would command a $800 retail value, but it is now available at our extremely low factory price.  

This is not a mass-produced model ship. Each museum-quality replica is handcrafted by master modelers and will make a perfect gift or memento for the sailor, ship or military enthusiast. As such it is shipped to the customer in a heavy-duty carton box; the model itself is encased in a secure wood frame which will require some disassembly.

USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN-72), nicknamed "Abe", is the fifth Nimitz-class supercarrier in the United States Navy. She is the second Navy ship named after former president Abraham Lincoln. Her home port is Everett, Washington.
