Prices are PP G&S, shipped CONUS. Will ship elsewhere as long as we can come to an agreement about shipping costs. First definite claim takes precedence. Prefer to sell, but it can't hurt to offer a trade, worst I can say is no. Box/card included with both.

Lionsteel T5 (Nilox, milled Micarta) $TRADED - LNIB. Purchased new, unused, uncarried, unsharpened. Fantastic knife and sheath, but I don't use fixed blades nearly as often as I do folders, and when I do I have been grabbing something smaller than this. Not offered at too much of a discount from new simply because part of me wants to believe I do more/heavier camping & bushcrafting than I actually do, and does not want to let this go.

Bark River Essential (CPM-154, Black Canvas Micarta, no bolster) $TRADED - Catch-and-release. Lightly carried & used according to previous owner, and I see no reason to doubt it. Light scratches on the blade and rear pin, but in excellent shape overall. Does not appear to have been sharpened (or used enough to require sharpening).

I had planned on not buying any Bark River knives until I could buy one from them in person (because Enscanaba would make an excellent stop on a long-weekend ride around Lake Michigan for me), but couldn't resist when this was offered in trade for a ZT I had up for sale. It has re-confirmed that I DO want a Bark River knife, but while this is just the size I like in a lot of my folders, in a fixed blade it's just a bit too short for my size-XL-but-slim hands. I need to figure out which knife of theirs is basically this, but stretched out about 10-15%. It is an EXCELLENT size for a fixed EDC, if it fits your hands better than it does mine.

Hi, Bark River will be making an essential 2 in the near future! It's slightly bigger then the original you have. You can follow their production schedule on Facebook.
