I’m regretfully putting up my EU17 Mini. This is a rare military overrun that are very hard to find. It is unused by me, but shows minimal coating wear along the edge. It’s very sharp, and feels great in hand. The blade is 6” , 11 1/2 overall length, and .27” thick. Here’s some information on the EU17 series:
The mil-overrun “Extraction Unit 17” series was introduced in 2004. The standard EU17 was first in the series (7” blade, 37 released). Next came the EU17 Magnum (9.5” blade, 28 released). The Mini EU17 was expected immediately after the Magnum as noted in this October 30, 2004 post by Jerry on the release of the Magnums: “We will be posting the "GO" button here and on our website forum.... These should go pretty fast, I believe that there are only around 28 of these available. . . I will get an exact number for you tomorrow.... Look for the start of the action around 9:00 or 10:00 pm EST.... We might have the "Mini EU-17s" for you tomorrow night as well. . . not sure yet. We have VERY VERY few of those, certainly not enough to make a special offer of their own.” However, they weren't released until two weeks later :), May 2, 2005. Here's what Jerry had to say in a post on April 29, 2005: “The Mini EU-17 sports a 6 inch blade of INFI and simply floats in your hand! ! ! The Mini completes the trilogy of EU-17 models and just begs for a good old fashioned whoopin'!!!” The blade spec (per Jerry, Aug 2004) is: “Fatter than 1/4". . . Thinner than 5/16" . . .. Full height grind”.
Sold with the sheath pictured, and a desert tan kydex sheath to BeastClaw
