Just got this one recently and did a refurb on it. Decided it's a little bigger than I want to carry so I'm letting it go.
When I got it it had been used and the parkerized finish was scuffed up. I gave it a hand rubbed Scotch Brite finish and then blued the blade with Brownells Oxpho-Blue which is IMO the best cold blue on the market and as tough as traditional hot blues.
The edge has been profiled with the Edge Pro to an angle that is easy to maintain with a sharpmaker.
Next I fitted it with an extremely heavy duty sheath made from 10/12 oz veg tanned leather. It's swinger style with a double thick nylon web loop that is removeable for pack carry. It's finished brown and then waterproofed with Sno-Seal. I'm no Kenny Rowe so my finish is not perfect but it is guaranteed to be rugged.
The knife also comes with the Edgeworks Kydex that came with it.
The knife is Greg's famous Combat Bowie and he told me it is either 1084 or L6. This one has more of a Texas Toothpick style blade (7.25") and has great balance in hand.

Not really looking for trades but I would consider a quality 2 blade folding hunter in the traditional pattern.
Thanks for looking!
