Here are a couple of big blades to trade! I’m interested in other fixed blades, tactical axes, and Hinderer knives. Please send pics with offers.
I’ve got a rare one here available
An old Rio Grande Camp Knife by Blackjack. This one has been used and sharpened but is still in great shape! This is based on a Bill Moran custom knife that was made for Ken Warner for a possible trip to Vietnam as a reporter during the War. Blackjack really did the design justice with their version. It comes as you see it. Knife and sheath.

Jim Hrisoulas wrote the book The Complete Bladesmith. His stamp is 8R(Atar). Jim is well known for making combat ready swords and knives. This is a knightly weapon for sure! It is 17inches overall with an 11 1/4inch blade tip to guard. The handle is wood. It looks like cocobolo to me. The guard and pommel are brass. I believe the blade is 5160. There are some spots on the blade and the brass could use some polish.
