I'll take the hiking buddyHey all, happy Monday!
For your consideration, some major reorganization going on over here at sharking HQ and I have some fine gems being released back into the wild! All of the typical rules apply (i.e. laws of the sharks) -- first I'll take it, followed by a PM will get knife / knives. Note that all prices are NET to me and include paypal fees + fully insured shipping to your door via USPS 2 day. Please ensure that this (and all future sales) are legal in your state / municipality, prior to taking receipt of said knife/knives. If you want multiples are feel that you have an offer within a few bucks, let me know and I will hear you out. No trades at this time, all purchases must be shipped CONUS or to a CONUS freight forwarder (unless you are international and we have done business before / are forum friends).
Some spectacular pieces below; I have 1-2 more pieces I am contemplating listing, so if these move, expect to see a few more-- thanks for looking & happy sharking :thumbup:
Note #1: All knives are listed below what I paid
Note #2: All knives pictured with patina have since been cleaned up with Flitz and look brand new; can send pics if needed but I've been super busy and haven't taken any to post.

Selling my brand new patch knife I bought from the knife connection. It comes with a leather sheath that I cut off the firesteel holder since I was going to use it for neck carry. I just bought a new patch knife from last weeks sale with a thicker blade so I am selling this one. Asking $285 plus fees via PayPal. Knife is brand new, never used and sheath is new besides the firesteel holder removal.
