I hate to do it, but gotta' let a couple of my favorites go
I bought both of these here on the forums a couple of years back and it's time to let someone else enjoy these beauties.
First up is a Tusker by Scott Gossmantraded. It's 11 inches of 3/16" thick A2, with a 6" blade and desert ironwood scales
I've carried this knife out in the desert in my pack a couple of times, but it didn't get much use, if any at all. The belt loop on the sheath is just a hair too small for my belt, and the handle is just on the small side for my hands. The tang and around the guard does show some patina from being handled. I've Flitzed it out as best I can, but it is still there.
SPFNext up is a fighting bowie by Ray Laconico. This bad mama-jama is 16" overall, 10 1/2 of that is hand-satined 1/4" thick, 5160 goodness:thumbup: Bloodwood handle, killer lines, and you'd never believe how light and fast in the hand it is. Never use or carried but, there is some discoloration from rust on the guard. I never thought I'd need to oil stainless steel in the desert, but apparently my house is more humid than I thought! I've cleaned it up as well as I dare, but there's still a bit there:grumpy:
I am just looking to get back out of these what I put into them. You can take either one for $365$350310, paypal or USPS MO, and shipped here in the USA. I'll consider shipping overseas on a case-by-case basis. First "I'll take it" here gets it.
Thanks,
Walter
