Hey all, up for sale today is a fantastic condition Cheburkov Scout with gorgeous ZDI 1016 Damasteel blade!
Full disclosure, I received the blade Brand New and there was a spot on the blade edge where it was contacting the backspacer. I reached out to Cheburkov and he said I could try sharpening it, and if that didn't resolve the issue, he would replace the blade. So, I sharpened the blade and now it seems to have resolved the issue AND it's WICKED sharp. I used the DMT Aligner and stropped up to 1 micron on the leather strops.
There is a small mark on the titanium scale where it rubbed the dang rivets on my Levi jeans for the two times that I carried it, but other than those things, the knife is perfect. It has not been used to cut anything.
Asking $390 shipped in the US via USPS Priority, payment via PayPal.
