Nice max great knife!ill take F2
I'll take the hiking buddy. pm me your PayPal info.I've got two lil' guys to sell.
First up is my F2. This was the first one that was made from a hiking buddy and led to the others. It has a pretty good blood patina going from cleaning ducks with it. Sadly, that hunting trip was the only time I've ever used it. I'm asking $PF.

Next up is a classic Hiking Buddy. I would definitely consider this one a big paw type handle. I don't know the exact thickness as I couldn't find the original sale post and don't have calipers. It's a thick one though. It's Mesquite with the black liners and bolsters the way Andy used to do them. It is a well loved and taken care of knife. It has a couple of scratches on the blade that I tried to capture in the photos. They are very light and could easily be polished out. It comes with a J. Oeser sheath. I'm asking $250 for this one. I would also be open to a trade for a thinner, non-burl convex Hiking Buddy. Thanks!
