All are used. All prices are OBO and includes everything to get you the knife paying via paypal. Only trades I'll consider is for a 1 or 2p tent that packs small. I'm looking at something like the Alps Mountaineering mystique.

I don't know much the top one other than it's made of 80crv2 steel. I'm going to copy/paste the info from the gentleman I picked it up from. Blade is about 3 5/8" long with a saber grind that's not thick, not thin. Handle is nearly 4.5" I think someone with XL might find the handle snug but acceptable, anyone over would struggle with the aggressive3..1103 pinky hook.
Askari Knives Patriot- carried in my EDC pack and some belt carry, like new never really used it.
80crv2 steel charcoal PVD coating g10 scales 2 tone black/green with kydex sheath
SOLD $90

Next down is Bradford Gardian 3 with Nitro-V steel and red/pinkish terotuf. I've used this a reasonable amount but it's still in great condition. Minimal sharpenings.
SOLD $90

Buck frontier from SK blades. I used this once or twice in the kitchen, I think I touched up the edge when it was new but otherwise it's seen very little use. This is customied Buck compadre with D2 steel, full flat grind, much nicer sheath, and burlap scales.
SOLD $90

Last in the group of 4 is a cold steel san mai SRK. I used this for testing but have found a knife I like a better as a medium camp knife that's not a beastly knife. It's chopped, it's sparked a ferro rod, I probably split some kindling with it. I have not sharpened this and it came with a great edge. These are a shallow hollow grind so it slices pretty well for the thick stock but still keeps most of the weight of a saber grind. I really enjoy cold steel's shallow hollow grinds at camp.
SOLD $90

In the set of two is a Swamp Rat Mountainmandu in Sr77 steel and micarta handles. This is 0.275" thick of beatly chopping power, and it is not new at all. I've split a good amount of wood with this and sharpened it. It splits very well and chops really well. Only selling this one because I now have a CPK behemother which is even more rediculously big and fun, even if not entirely practical. This comes with a buy brown kydex sheath.
$375

Condor African bush knife. Stripped and resharpened to 2 different blade angles for a "dirty edge" and food edge use method (sharpie dot on thin side). This has seen a moderate amount of use around the yard and kitchen to experiment with the utility of a double edge knife,
SOLD $50

BK21 has seen 2 days of heavy trail clearing use. The edge out near the tip needs more work as there a few small dings in the edge and the edge is just dull in the area from hitting dirt as I was cutting things flush to the ground cutting paths.
SOLD $80

Ah yes, completely forgot about the scrolling feature being new here now that we can post albums. That's been a feature for a while on other forums I'm on. Thank you kindly for pointing that out.
