I’m the original owner of both of these knives.
Both have opened a few packages and such but that’s about it. I have not sharpened them but I know I used the honing steel on the Heavy Hunter (can’t remember if I used it on the EDC.
I want to say I’ve carried the Heavy Hunter a few times.
I think the EDC has only been on my belt once because the horizontal sheath has so little retention it’s not safe to carry…. Also, the stitching on the loop of the horizontal sheath is a little loose, allowing the loop to move some. Needless to say I’m not attributing any value to the sheath.
The buffalo horn bolsters on the Heavy Hunter have slightly separated from the knife but seem secure. I’ve tried to capture the daylight between the bolsters and knife in my pictures.
Handle materials on both were upgrades. Red gum is native to Australia IIRC.
The grinds aren’t perfect and there’s a blemish or two. See pictures below. Please PM if you want additional pictures or have any questions etc.
I would like to trade for a NIB or LNIB American made Spyderco. That said I am open to other makers.
