I love how this thing chops, but it's getting to be the off season for work, and I need to get some money squirreled away.
This KZII started life with black coating and hand-smoothed tan canvas handles. I stripped the coating, then started trying to clean up the decarb and dimples by hand, which proved to be too much. I sent it off to Bark River who reprofiled the blade down to a zero-grind convex. I did some more hand sanding and sharpening myself when I got it back from BRKT to get the profile to where I wanted it. NOTE: Between the hand sanding and sharpening, and the kydex sheath, this is NOT a safe queen satin. This is a user. If you want pretty, you'll have to do a little work with some scotchbright wheels.
The included sheath is a Buy Brown open spine with teklok, which cost $80.
I left the coating around the handle and butt for corrosion protection. If you want those removed, I can throw some stripper on it and remove the coating before I ship it off. I'll leave the sanding and cleanup to you, though.
I'll take $550 shipped CONUS and paypal'd. You must be 18, and be legally allowed to own this by your local laws.
I will consider trades/partial trades, but I'm more interested in selling outright. Specifically interested in another CABS as a partial trade.
Send a PM if interested.
