This is now SOLD:

Just picked this up recently, but find it's not for me, but still pretty cool. Comes with a small kydex sheath, I wrangled some black paracord through the holes to make it so you can slip your belt through the one strand and over the sheath, it holds it nicely against your body via the belt and the paracord keeps it in place. It also comes with some chain to make a neck carry too.

I did sharpen this to it's betterment, as you can see from these photos is how the edge is now. Also a slight rub mark from the kydex on the one side, doesn't appear that could be helped.

Price shipped in the USA $95 .... Price drop to $80 shipped... payment by US postal money order or a check if I know you.

I also made a nice lanyard for that, with the diamond knot close to the end so it provides a nice grip against the knot when using, depending on your hand of course.

Here are some photos of the knife, made in Germany with N690 steel for the blade;

Can't seem to edit the above post, but, as you can see from the photo, I had removed the mock belt loop paracord, didn't work out as well as I had hoped ;)

You always have interesting knives, but the payment options are tough... I'm sure you're a good guy, but in the unlikely event something does go wrong, a buyer has zero recourse. I know for me (and I'd bet some other folks), that makes it a kind of like hitting on a 17 in blackjack... No matter how good it looks, you just can't do it.

If you set up a form of secure online payment, please let me know. I would have jumped on this one back when it was $80...
 
Thanks for the interest but I stay away from any on line forms as much as I can, too old fashioned, tried paypal once due to a transaction with a guy in Italy, he ended up just mailing me cash! and didn't take the paypal he had insisted upon ;) so I cancelled the paypal.

And as to me being a good guy, of course I'm biased, any one would say they are a good guy, but being here since about the beginning of the forums start up and since we got the method of keeping a score card of transactions, currently 236 at 100%, I wouldn't think it's too big a risk.

And yes, even at $80 it was a pretty good buy, I lose more in these rental fee's than I want to think about! :)

Hey Starter,
I've had the distinct pleasure of allowing Gary to take my money on more than one occasion;each time via payment by usps money order and each time a flawless transaction. He's a true gentleman and as honest as they come.you can also rest assured that you are getting an excellent item,usually one that's pretty unique. Trust me PayPal ain't all that when you speak of "protection" and such. If you buy something and the seller sends you a rock, PP won't give a damn so long as you received the package.
I'd grab this without hesitation if you like it. If something goes south,Gary will make it right.
 
Kind of you to say so sir, of course I understand that a person needs to feel safe before and during any kind of dealings, some just feel more comfortable using paypal.

I will also include a Tec Lok that is brand new, but doesn't have any of the hardware 'stuff' but I think you can come up with something to fasten it to the sheath with.

If you happen to have something for trade, lemme know
Thanks,
G2
