Well nice snag Bill!! It's a beauty! I've never really been a Jade Green fan but that combo is really nice! It changed my thinking about that material.

I actually got back to you with the terms via PM, but heard nothing. However, you and I have been trying to settle the sale for a while now, so it's only fair to hand the blade over to you. PM inbound with paypal info.

Okay, it's hard to believe, but I made another mental boo boo today. Looked at the wrong picture, then made the wrong sheath. Thank goodness you guys are understanding!! This is a faux sea-ray inlay look on a Nessmuk pattern. Price is $95 including shipping.

My Sneaky Pete fits and looks pretty good in it, too!

OK, well in a way this sucks, but it is just better this way. I am putting my Bushraptor, which is one of the first two, up for sale. This move has been one learning experience after another for me. Many I wasn't expecting caused by an unexpectedly harsh winter, with the worst weather in many years. I wanted this one for an edc, and back down south it would have worked I think, but up here I have had to chisel and pry my gas tank door open covered in a 1/4 inch of ice, and I've had to pop my doors open when they have frozen shut while my truck was out parked in the woods for hours while I was working. There have been a few other things pop up...but I'm not typing all that out in a brick of text. Luckily I have usually had an uglier knife handy for such things, but sometimes I have had to scrounge for things rather than risk prying with my 1/8 full-height Bushraptor. So...I am going back to edc-ing my 5/32 Recluse for now, and hoping I can get Andy to make me a 5/32 version with a slightly lower grind later on in the year when the weather is better for him too. I already another nice slicey 1/8, I need a 5/32 edc, I'm just one of those people... :)

Bushraptor- Drunken burlap, black liners, white sidewalls, 1/8 O-1, tapered tang, full-height grind.

I am asking Sold, headed north , which includes shipping in the continental US. Paypal preferred but USPS money order will work. Must be 18, and any laws in your area are your concern :)

Misty; use silicone spray on all you rubber door seals. Prevents them from freezing and sticking. Lots of tricks for living comfortably in freezing winters, bet you'll have most of them down by springtime ;)
 
A have a trick for your frozen doors..try pushing them in to break the ice seal if you can.It works for me up here in the great white north :0)

It's a gorgeous knife, feels great in the hand, very nimble too. It's just that I was just barely getting to where I could edc a fine thinner blade in the south, up here, except in summer, I feel I should stick with the 5/32...just better that way :D

The doors are still too tight for that...

I totally hear you! I EDC Andy's 1/8 stock and love it for standard use, but for rougher work I usually look to >5/32 as well.
