Sold: For Sale is a Used Nathan Carothers Field Knife in A2. Designed by Lorien and made by Nathan the Machinist aka Nathan Carothers with his HT'd A2 steel. One of the First Runs I believe. It has the brown micarta scales and pancake kydex with large Tek-Lok. The work that went into making these knives is amazing. Nathan is a machining genius 
Ive used it in the kitchen to cut things- mostly tomatoes and bread. It has the original edge and has been stropped. As indicated in the original ad it is not stainless and theres 3 tiny spots on the left side of the blade in front of the handle. I rubbed it down with a Qtip to see what they were so theres a shiny spot there. I tried to capture it in the photos. Its never been carried and the sheath is like new. Thats why Im selling it- I never carry it.
Model For Sale is like the one in the first picture, middle knife:
