IMPORTANT NOTE: I'm home for a couple of days before leaving for another week away with family. This thread will be closed by the end of the day tomorrow, so that I can ship items paid for by Friday.

Selling these to help pay for another purchase and raise some funds for a custom, so no trade offers, please. I accept PayPal F&F or G&S. All prices include fees (if you choose G&S) and shipping. The pictures below are under fluorescent light and don't show off the wood as well as natural sunlight would; so if you want additional pictures or have any questions, please feel free to ask. You can respond in the thread or use a private message.

First up is a 43 Oregon Trapper in Cocobolo. I bought this from Collector Knives and it has beautiful grain. There is some blade rap that will sharpen out over time and a fruit patina. I've sharpened this blade, stropped, and honed it. I've also lubed it with Nano oil. It has a light pull (probably a 4), but the walk and talk isn't sloppy. It has been a fine user for me, and would serve you in the same capacity. Asking $65. SOLD

Second is a 74 Stallion in Cocobolo. I bought this LNIT from the Bay and it fit that description when I got it. Like the 43, I've used this one to cut fruit, so it has a patina. I've only stropped and honed this one and the patina is a lot less developed than the 43. The action is great on this one, with a solid 5-6 pull and good walk and talk. The cocobolo is significantly darker than the 43. I'd really rather keep this one, so I won't be too sad if it doesn't sell. Asking $135. SOLD

Third is a 61 Congress in cherry wood with stainless steel. I bought this one NIT from Traumkommode. I wanted to take a look at this pattern, but I realized that I'm not about to pick up whittling as a hobby (at least not yet), and I don't like to collect knives that I won't use--and this one isn't going to kick out my lambsfoot, so it needs to go. It is a great little knife and the action is really sweet--great pull on each blade (5-6, maybe a 7 on the pen) and perfect walk and talk. The cherry is exceptional looking and feels very nice in hand as well. Asking what I paid, $150. SOLD

If you want the lot, you can have it for $350.
