Brend/Branton Semi-Production Marauder Collaboration

[ltolstoy]

I bought this knife a year or so ago for $690. Probably paid too much for it, but I liked it. I'll take $550 for it, shipped.

I am not certain, but pretty sure that what I've got here is the knife described in this post from Blade forums in 2001:

The 25 limited edition models will be completely hand crafted by Walter in Walters shop.The limited edition will be marked with Walters flag logo and the Merrill's marauders logo and the serial number.The cost will be $950.00. Upon completion of the limited edition models I plan to manufacture a few hunderd versions of the same knife using the technology available to my small shop.
The D-2 blades will be water jet cut , handles roughed out on a CNC machine, blades CNC ground and blades heat treated to Walters specs at his heat treater and final finish applied in my shop under Walters supervision.The semi production blades will be marked with the Branton Knife Company logo and Walters flag logo with Brend design under his logo.The semi production piece will run approx $300.00.

I can't get images to load. Send me a notification on Blade Forums with an email address if you want me to send you pics.

I sent the pics today. Let me know if you want more, or need closer looks at a particular part of the knife. If you see the ones on ebay too, they're in a different light so that might help.
