Picked up this one here on the forums and have not ever used it. I did do some edge work on this one because when I received it the blade near the choil had a bit of a 'mis-grind' ... for lack of a better term.

I put a Bangin convex edge down to 2000 grit sandpaper then Green rouge on my strop. This thing is very sharp and had a great edge. There are a few very faint/minor scratches on the blade but this knife came w/more of a user finish than a polished safe queen.

I'm asking what I paid for it.

Specs:
Hollow ground 3.5" blade (cutting edge) of 1/8" Thick D2 Steel
Professionally heat treated by Paul Bos
Removable Natural Canvas Micarta grips
TCK Kydex with Large Tek Lok (One of the best fitting kydex sheaths I've had)

Asking: $150.00 shipped. PP or MO.

USPS Priority Mail (Insurance extra)

why do i not see a bos stamp? or am i blind? :)

I don't believe it has one. That was the way the Maker described it and I posted a direct quote f/the original sales thread.

I wouldn't have any reason to doubt Coombs-Tanguay. I can't provide any other data than that.

If you want any other pics perhaps I can do that. Could be a marking under the handle slabs but I don't know that for sure.

Does Bos mark all blades that they heat-treat?
