Hey all,

I have two fixed blades here for your consideration.

The first is a Gossman UFK. Scott made this one in S90V at my request so if you're looking for a knife that will skin a bull elk and then still slice tomatoes paper thin, this is it!

The scales are olive drab G-10 with black canvas micarta liners. Sheath is leather, very robust. To get the most out of the S90V I had the edge professionally re-profiled by one of our resident sharpening gurus and its a real razor now. One stroke on a ceramic stone or stick gets it back to shaving sharp. OAL is just under 9 inches and the blade is 3 3/4 inch and 3/16 thick. The knife is barely used. I just don't get out as much as I hoped to. Asking SOLD.

The second is a Barry Dawson all-purpose fixed blade. Its small (OAL is just under 9 inches, blade length is 3,5 inches) but hella robust. Made of 1/4 inch 5160 with a blasted finish. Micarta scales. Comes in a very neat and practical ballistic nylon belt sheath. Knife is used, but marks are superficial scuff marks IMO. I dont think its been tested even near to its capacity. Edge is clean and sharp. Similar knife from Barry is $365 now. Asking $250. Pls add 4% for Paypal.

PM or email for queries. No trades please.

Here's the Gossman....

As a Dawson fan, I'm tempted, but the budget forbids at this time. Anyone on the fence can take it from me that the Dawson won't diasappoint. It'll do everything you need it to and then some. And the price is outstanding. 98T is his "Victory" model, right? So the tac sheath was his nod to military use, I think.

The current version of this one is the Victory model, correct.
