Hi all, got a number of blades for your consideration today.

From largest to smallest, top to bottom in my pics of multiple blades :


Huntsman Knife Co Fellbeast Legacy Prime Prototype
- Differentially heat treated 52100 steel
- .135 blade thickness
- Scotch brite blade finish (it's a prototype after all) and made to be a user
- Dark gray (nearly black) G10 handles with great ergos!
- Great fitting kydex sheath
- Knife is practically brand new but does have a few kydex sheath scratches on the non show side as shown and was used for about 60 seconds on a brand new (clean) 2x4. Still has the factory oil protecting the blade.
- A real BEAST of a chopper! Let me say that again, THIS THING IS A TOTAL MONSTER!!! 24 inches overall with an 18" blade! Best part is, it's got great cutting geometry meaning it's got the performance to back up it's imposing looks.

Rather than me blather on and on about it, read the original sales thread which has better pics and all the specs and details :

https://www.bladeforums.com/threads...t-52100-w-sheath-free-conus-shipping.1994534/

This is a LOT of bang for your buck!
$340 $315 F&F, $350 $326 G&S


To give you some perspective on size, the gray knife this is pictured next to is a SYKCO Regulator 12, a 12" blade/17 1/2" OAL knife! Makes it looks small! (The Regulator 12 is for sale in the Busse portion of the exchange)

Freeman Outdoor Gear 451 Large Chopper
- 6.5" blade of 1/4" thick D2 steel
- Black G10 handles
- Comes with excellent Spec Ops sheath
- Factory edge is sharpened at 17 degrees per side. Has been lightly sharpened but not reprofiled. The edge could use a touch up but I'd also note that Jeff Freeman offers to resharpen any knife of his, for life and for free
- Does not come with factory box or anything else, just knife and sheath as shown
- Knife has been used and coating and handle do show some wear, but nothing crazy
- These have been out of production for awhile and is one of only two I've seen for sale over the past 2 years that I've been actively looking for them. No current plans for future production of these either per my last conversation with the owner.
- A real brute of a knife! Jeff Freeman makes truly excellent quality knives and this one is no exception. His customer service is also second to none. You can thrash this knife without fear knowing Jeff fully stands behind his products. Comes with a lifetime warranty.
$300 $265 F&F, $310 $275 G&S


Spyderco Province
- CPM-4V
- Polished black G10
- Leather sheath
- Comes with factory box and papers
- Reports indicate that Spyderco heat treats this to around 62.5 to 64.5 Rc with good microstructure. If you know Spyderco, then you know they typically rank up there for doing great heat treats, better than most other large manufacturers
- Brand new, never used, carried or sharpened
- Has a GREAT factory edge!
- If you know what CPM 4V is like, and you know the designers behind this particular model and the testing it went through, and the high quality that Spyderco is known for, then you'll understand that this is a real high performance knife compared to many other offerings on the market
- I bought this as a backup to my other user. - This knife is discontinued and my pricing, though high, reflects my reluctance to let it go. It was a backup to my user. Nevertheless, if someone wants it, it's yours.

- Cerakote ceramic coating
- Burlap Micarta handles
- Machined and thermo-formed Kydex sheath

- Priced under retail at $265 F&F, $275 G&S (retail is $300) SOLD


Spyderco Proficient

- Excellent condition
- Awesome Taichung quality
- Edge has been resharpened to 17 degrees per side

- I have two of these available, you do not have to buy as a pair
- Brand new, unused, unsharpened, never carried
- Elmax steel, 61-62 HRC, Cryo treatment, convex ground
- 3.150" blade length
- .189" blade thickness
- 7.125" OAL
- This has the new style Fallkniven sheath which securely locks the blade in place without any rattles (see locking tab on side), solving the complaints of many on the old style sheaths which many felt rattled too much and were too loose (made that way though so the knife wouldn't get frozen and stuck inside the sheath). This new style is really nice
- Comes with sheath as shown and original box (not shown)
- Best retail price I've ever seen is $167, so I'm pricing these a fair bit under retail at $135 $125 F&F, $140 $130 G&S each
Both SOLD
