Title says it all, I'm selling my beloved Carothers Field Knife with Delta 3V, unbuffed black linen scales and a perfectly formed drop leg kydex. I've only used it once to feather a small cypress stick to test the geometry and then I've stropped it lightly. It has the same razor sharp edge from the shop. The linen micarta has taken on a very attractive aged finish. You can see it from the pics. I can't spot any rust or marks, and it looks minty.

I haven't been around the forums much since the pandemic but I've only just refreshed my Gold Membership, hoping to sell this knife. I've been on the forums since 2000 (before the meltdown), so it's coming to a quarter of a century already. I'm based in Singapore, and my solid feedback goes back a long ways (I think it's still there in the GBU). I've kind of retired from this knife hobby but every once in awhile I like to look around. I'm mostly using simple Mora knives now and locally made parangs as I sometimes teach kids and can't afford to let my prized tools get ruined by others.

I will ship this out via Singapore Post Registered Airmail, or, if you can wait, my friend who will return to the US during the summer holidays will help me ship it out using USPS (late June, early July). I take Paypal. I've looked around a bit on these forums to see what the market price is before listing. If I'm way off, let me know.

USD550 shipped to you. Paypal Goods and Services. Thanks for looking.

I have an extremely special price if you can pick it up in Singapore and pay me cash (or ask a friend to do so, perhaps your friend will be sending you stuff or going back stateside) - this is because it saves me the shipping cost, time at the post office, payment/paypal fees etc and worrying until you get the knife in your hands.

Second in line
 
I would like to have one FK3 and one basic 5, My priorities are crusty vintage micarta. Or red and black or maroon, or frankly anything you got.
thanks
