Howdy,
I have for sale the following knives. The listed prices include shipping within the US (although I may have to double check if I need to ship to Alaska or Hawaii); I will gladly ship elsewhere but may need to adjust prices to cover increased shipping costs. I prefer payment via PayPal but may accommodate alternative methods if necessary (Venmo).
Generally open to offers. Please post "I'll take it" if you would like one or more and follow up via private message. First in time wins.


1. Cold Steel Laredo Bowie (Carbon V):$150.00 $140.00
I am the second owner of this Bowie, which has been resharpened and used primarily to cut thin branches, watermelons and the like. I once used it to gut a whitetail, just to see how it worked (surprisingly well). I believe this is a factory 2nd; the only issue I can find is a hairline on the pommel which has not enlarged at all since I bought it in 2018. The handle and fittings are all nice and tight. Comes with an excellent original leather sheath. I have half a mind to keep the sheath, but my other Laredo in 3V is too big for it.


2. Cold Steel Recon Tanto (Carbon V):$50.00 SOLD
I got this used and very dull, so I reprofiled the edge and ground down the sharp corner of the Americanized tanto. It cuts pretty well for such a thick blade. I used this around the pasture several times, whittling and clearing small branches, and to cut food a couple of times. Comes with the original sheath.
Thanks for looking!
