Tuxedo KE Bushie and Modified Recluse For Sale. Both in the picture below (only pics I have right now)

KE Bushie is 1/8" 01. It has been used only once in the kitchen then cleaned up. I did remove the secondary edge and it now has a razor sharp convex edge. With leather sheath, shipped and paypal'd Sold.

Recluse is 5/32" 01. Maroon micarta with black and white liners. With a dropped point and razor sharp convex edge. The work was done by me with files and sandpaper. It has been used a little but is in great shape. With a leather sheath, shipped and paypal'd Sold

Got the KE Bushie today. Wow, the photo didn't do the knife justice. It looks awesome man!
 
Hi Guys. Some nice Fiddlebacks have appeared for sale here. Was wondering if anyone had a Bushcrafter that they were thinking of "setting free" ;) If so drop me a PM. Thanks again. Rob
 
Interested in trading for the following:

1. Bolstered Bushcrafter or Arete >2012, hardwood (ironwood, cocobolo, blackwood, etc) or antique canvas micarta with canvas micarta bolsters, tapered tang (although SFT will do just fine!), and preferably in 1/8" although I am open to 5/32" on the right knife.

2. Synthetic handled Nessmuk, >2012, tapered tang, 1/8".

If you have either of these knives, PM me as I have some very cool stuff to trade! :)

Cheers,

WT

I might be looking to trade out a stainless runt in maroon but it would have to be something pretty nice. Pm or email any ideas photos help. I will post some asap

Hate to say it but you have some competition. I have been trying to snag a Bushcrafter for a month now. Either I miss it on Friday or nothing shows up for a while. Just keep checking, its a ritual for me. Good Luck.

Like I said in the Shark thread, I'll be posting a Bushcrafter up early next week. It's a while from now, but it is sporting Ironwood and bolsters. I think you guys will like it. I'll post the exact date and time I'm gonna list it ahead of time to make it fair.

Please, no PMs or emails.

Bushcrafters take patience but aren't impossible. Andy tends to go on a run of making one a week for a while then goes a while without any. It's all timing. I'm in data analytics and stats, and I keep telling myself I'm gonna run an analysis on 52 FFs to see if any patterns emerge

Well, there haven't been a lot of them lately, but they do come along. I noticed a tapered one that appeared in the twitter tease from this past week...that did not show up in last Friday's post. It should show up eventually :)
 
And I picked up a gorgeous box elder burl bushcrafter a couple or three weeks ago on a Friday...my problem is that I want one of everything. In 01 and 154. In tapered and full tang. In wood and in burlap. Bolstered and without.

I need to become a banking magnate or enter Fiddleback therapy, one or the other. This regular job plus Fiddleback addiction is murder.
 
I will be your therapist, Please overnight all your Fiddlebacks to me and I will pronounce you cured.

Man this sounds very technical. So now to snag a Bushcrafter I have to invest $3000 on latest Macbook Pro with software - this is looking like a very expensive knife!!! ;)
