Prices include shipping to CONUS. Paypal prefered (no fee), will take USPS money order if I have to. Not really interested in trades, need to recoup funds spent on a grail blade. "I'll take it" gets first dibs (but this will be listed on other forums as well), send questions and offers by PM.


Busse Boney Active Duty with green linen micarta, user. Good condition, some very light marks from use, sharpened with Edge Pro at factory edge angle, quite sharp. Comes with a wet-molded Sharpshooter Modern Classic sheath and basic lanyard to help with drawing from pouch sheath. $240 SOLD!

Bark River Gunny, A2 rampless with matte black canvas micarta. Unused, but stropped. Comes with original sheath as well as a KSF droploop sheath, both treated with Obenauf's LP. Sheaths have some drawer wear. $135 SOLD!

Lee Reeves Belt Axe with white ash handle. Used in good condition, some rub marks from use, still has original edge that has been stropped after use. The wait time for one of these is around a year. $160

Large Sebenza. Carried a handful of times but not used. Factory edge is untouched. There are some light rub marks on the pocket clip from carrying. $325 SOLD!

Zero Tolerance 0100, CPM3V blade with black G10 handle and specops-style sheath with kydex insert. User, purchased here on BF. Had been hand sharpened, I sharpened it up with the Edge Pro. Quite sharp, coating has some light wear. Stout knife, just not for me. $150


EK One Zero-1, made by Marbles when Mike Stewart of Bark River was there. A2 steel, like most of Mike Stewart's best knives. Unused, quite sharp factory edge. Comes with original sheath (which isn't much to write home about...). $75 SOLD!

The knives at the bottom are at those prices only if you purchase one of the knives listed above them. Sort of incentive to move the higher priced knives faster.

If the other knives move and those don't, I'll contact you both.
 
Is that a smudge or a scratch on the Sebenza scale? Looks like just a smudge. Can you email pics of the blade closed? Im assuming it is all centered. Thanks!

I just noticed that... it's actually a clean spot. I tried rubbing it off and some wax or something started coming off the rest of it. I'm assuming it is something from the manufacturing process as it's pretty consistent on both scales (or was, until I started rubbing it off).

I'll go outside and take a couple more pictures and post them here in a few minutes.
 
Edit: Pictures removed, knife sold!

The closed shot is a little blurry, but I think you can make out that it is nicely centered.

After I rubbed whatever that was off the scale, you can see in the sun that there are no scratches on it. Took a couple of the blade to show that it is unscathed as well. The only marks I can find are on the pocket clip.

I said in the original post that those knives were there dirt cheap for those who purchased one of the knives listed above them. I'm sorry that it wasn't worded clearly enough, but I had no intention of selling and shipping those knives individually.

If no one had wanted them with a more expensive knife, I intended to keep them. Not worth the hassle of packaging and shipping to walk away with about $10 to show for it.
 
Specs on the Busse please!

3.5" blade, 0.125" thick, just under 8" overall length. Green linen micarta, sharpened on an Edgepro with Chosera stones up to 10k grit. The BAD (Boney Active Duty) has a heat treat with a higher than normal hardness for INFI; normal is 58-60rc, the BAD line has 60-62rc (iirc).
