I have owned this knife for about three years and it has seen use. I have always kept the edge razor sharp and the scales well polished.
I had a custom firesteel made for it (Matching Paper Micarta) and it has only been used a few times.
I made a sheath for it when I was first getting into making sheaths. The sheath is not a ton to look at (compared to what I am making now) but the sheath is very sturdy and will never give the end user any trouble.
The logo seen in the picture is now completely gone (simply from stropping) but the blade is in perfect condition and will come shaving sharp. I am only selling it because I have made my own knives.
150 shipped with sheath, firesteel, and box.

I purchased this knife at the same time as the Kephart and build a companion sheath for this as well. Again, logo cannot be seen anymore on this knife but it is in pristine condition and the sheath has never been worn in the field.
I made both sheaths to be worn together and as such they match in fit and color.
90 dollars shipped.
Will sell them both for 230 shipped to your door (CONUS)
Neither of these blades will be made by BRKT any more - so this is your chance to own them both.
