I will honor the time stamp on an unconditional “I’ll take it” posted here or via PM, however, I do reserve the right to sell (or not) to anyone and for any reason. Prices are PayPal G&S and shipped to the US (international buyers accept all risk and pay the difference in shipping). No trades please.
I picked this one up recently from a maker (Broken Oak) on eBay. Blade is ~3 5/8”, 8 1/4” OAL, A tad over 1/8” thick. Buckeye Burl scales over green liners. Nice thick handle. Fit and finish is pretty good, but not flawless. Scale has a small chip or two at the edge on one side - see pictures (came to me this way from the maker). Knife is unused, but I did need to strop the blade when I received it, because it still had a good sized bur on it. Comes with the Diomedes sheath shown.
Asking $125 shipped.
Description from maker:
“Custom one of a kind bushcraft knife, made solely by me every step of the process. As beautiful and stunning as this knife is, it's as heavy duty a bushcraft knife as you could hope for. Cpm 3v steel @ 59 HRC. Scandi grind blade that's just under 4'' long. Cutting egde almost all the way to the front of the handle for fine close up work. 8 3/4'' overall length, just over 1/8'' thick spine. Heat treat finish left on blade flats that shows natural swirls of blues and purple variations. Sharpened spine for ferro rod use/ tinder prep. Absolutely stunning buckeye burl scales with .06'' neon green micarta liners. Handle is highly contoured and follows the same shape of the skookum bushtool. 3-1/8'' copper pins in handle that's kind of become my thing, I put them on all my knives for the past year. 3- 1/4'' copper lanyard tubes in handle that are more for lashing to reach things than to attach as a spear. I opted for no shearing hole on the front of the blade for this one (most people don't have a use for it) so I left it out. No sheath included, but does fit in my skookums sheath as well as many other common leather bushcraft sheaths.”
