Thanks Andy and crew, you guys are the best!
 
beautiful, one of the best bush boots, spatting is outstanding. I hope you enjoy your like I enjoy mine
 
Not only is that a fantastic and functional knife, but it's gorgeous too. Very good purchase, I too would love to have that knife.
 
Gorgeous! I have a soft spot for smallish fixed blades and that one is particularly beautiful.

The Bushboot model is a sweet edc. I've owned a few of them over the years. It's one of my favorites in an urban type environment for a few reasons.

The first one I had was 5/32 tapered and had Bloodwood handle scales

A friend got one just like it in tapered 1/8 with African Blackwood scales, but wished it was 5/32 so I traded with him. I since gave this one to my daughter as one of her housewarming gifts when she moved out into her own apartment.

My wife carries her blue mango one daily. She's not here or I would take a newer pic. She carried the blackwood one for a while before I got her the blue one

Andy and crew make a few very nice smaller models. I bought my youngest daughter a Hiking Buddy, and I recently picked up one of their Bushcrafter Jr. models I really like a lot.

This is a crappy phone pic taken in bad light, but it shows all three of these models together for a size reference

Bushboots are great. This is the one I have - probably the exact one, if you sold it.

I have more than half a dozen Fiddlebacks in a display case, but my users are bushboot & 12" machete combo, or a big sneaky for a single-knife option.
 
That is a famous brand and doesn't seem to have much competition. Always gorgeous knives, and very useful, I'm sure.

It could be the one. If so there are a couple of distinctive spots in the spalting that should make it easy to tell.

The 12-inch machete and Bushboot combination makes a great team of tools :)
