Thanks for looking. As always, please keep questions, comments, offers and jokes offline. First unequivocal "I'll take it," followed by a PM or email gets it. Must be 18 and legal for you to own in your state. Reasonable offers considered. No trades. Thanks!
Up first is a lightly used Desert SOD--a hefty blade that punches above its weight. This feels soooo good in the hand and chops like a much larger blade. Made of legendary SR-77--one of the toughest steels on the planet, which sadly seems to have fallen out of use. I used it to chop a little wood--there's a little sap (I believe) on the tip and a little smoothing of the coating, but otherwise in amazing condition. Comes with a fantastic leather sheath (that I failed to take pics of). Asking $215 Paypaled and shipped.
Next is my last Swamp Warden with Ben Piatt custom orange G10 scales and a custom-made sheath he did for it with a drop-loop kydex belt loop. You really don't see many of these around. Ben did a limited run of these scales, which he REALLY knocked out of the park! Not sure if it was too much of a hassle for him, but he did an amazing job with these scales. I had two sets on two Wardens and had to sell one off for med bills or something like that a long while back. While I carried this a few times and reprofiled the edge on my Worksharp (it is convexed and will take a wicked sharp edge--happy to touch it up before sending if you want, just ask; also some light flattening of the black crinkle coat near the edge), I carry my cord-wrapped one more, and since I can use the money more than the blade, this cherished piece of Swamp Rat history is off to the chopping block. $175 PayPaled and shipped
Willing to ship overseas/cross-border, but buyer assumes all risk (payment via PayPal no fees only), picks up any additional shipping costs, and accepts that I won't lie about what's in the box (knife, cutlery, camping gear etc work). Please contact me with questions.
