Here's a Cold Steel Large Espada in Aus10 I modded to look more like a Military. The blade grind is thinner, but has kept the full spine thickness so this thing will be a slicing champ compared to the factory Espada, without giving up any significant strength. I have shortened the handle, made it more neutral for utility tasks, installed a finger choil, and added a fob to the clip so that it carries deep, and yet draws and deploys from pocket with ease and speed. In my opinion this version is much sleeker and more EDC ready than the factory Espada.

New blade length: 5"
New handle length: 6 1/4"

I would keep it except that I am laid off, and have a couple other mega folders that also fit the bill for me, including a Recon 1 and Voyager, though I am sure I'll sell one of those eventually too.

The price of this Espada on BladeHQ right now is $135, so I am offering this one at SOLD, via PayPal G&S (I will provide the email address in private messaging) with expedited shipping, tracking and insurance.

First "I'll take it" followed by prompt communication gets priority.

Thank you for looking!

That is sweet! I bet if you post it in production folders FS and list the new handle length it will sell fast.
 
Thank you. I actually meant to but made a mistake. Now per forum rules I have to wait two weeks before I can make a new thread for it. It's okay.

EDIT: I've reported the post to moderation and asked them to move it.
