Both the knife and Auriga sheath are sold
This knife was never belt carried and hasn't seen outdoor use. I actually had it in the pancake sheath in my car between a leather seat and center console. So, the markings on the sheath are from rubbing. I touched-up the blade once using extra fine Sharpmaker stones. Some light cutting and generally just handled it quite a bit when stuck in traffic. Most CRK knives of this type have Gunkote loss on the but cap and grip. I photographed with a harsh light to over emphasize the markings. One day you can send the knife to CRK for an entire Gun-Kote re-finish, and sharpen for $23. But caps are $10.50. or, since this is a excellent user, just beat the hell out of it first.
The piterM (Piotr Makuch) Auriga kydex custom modular sheath is amazing. Never carried and only slipped the knife in it a few times. Slight chipping on the 2 standard screws (see pic). My cost including shipping from the Netherlands was about $125 and a 3 month wait. The modular pouch can be removed and does hold many types of flashlights and folders. It is lg. Tek-Lok compatible (not included). Here is a link to his site showing many great pictures of this sheath in use: http://pm.home.pl/gunsold/kydex_gal.html
THIS AUCTION IS IN 2 PARTS:
PART 1: Shadow III, Pancake Sheath, Original Box, and Papers $165

Shadow III: A2 Tool Steel, 55-57 RC, KG Gun-Kote, 4" blade, .177 thickness, 8" overall length, D65s aluminum but cap, 6.0 oz
From CRK Website: Designed to incorporate the two basic criteria required in knives destined for hard field usage, these spearpoints have plenty of blade weight and good strong points. This design has been used by professional soldiers all over the world who have found them to be extremely good weapons as well as rugged dependable tools. The Shadow III is a good everyday carry knife and the pancake sheath rides high and snug.
