For Sale; Sog Government (Seki)

Price $325.00 - No Trades Please.
Price Drop-Now $285.00
Price includes USPS Priority Mail with tracking. And I cover the paypal fees. Goods & Services please.

***First "I'll take it" post in this thread followed by a PM for Paypal details gets priority.

Up for sale is my Sog Government. A rare one, and even more rare in this condition.
Comes with Knife, Box, & Sheath.

I'm going to call it lightly used.
Because I made a few feathersticks with it and played around with it in camp one day. It has one small scratch on the right side of the blade about half way down. I can't get it to show in the photos. Ir runs vertical and may have always been there. I'm not sure. But wanted to point it out.

***This Sale is Con USA only. Must be over 18 years of age and have legal right to own. Buyer is responsible for proper adherence of local laws and regulations.

With Sog having lost its collective mind. I doubt we will ever see the likes of this knife again.

Spec and rarity listing in the post below.

This will be listed elsewhere so I will be working off time stamps.

Thanks for looking,
LV.

This knife is extremely agile and well balanced. It feels like your best friend the moment you pick it up.

This would actually make a smokin' nice big camp knife.
It would excel at less altruistic endeavors as well.
