Greetings All,

Since I've been a very bad boy lately in another money-sucking hobby that I have, I'm having to put up one of my fine choppers for sale. I bought this back a couple of years ago, but haven't used it in quite some time. I'm a fan of the larger knives, so I've got a few to choose from when I head out with a blade in hand. I recently got it sharpened back up to a fine working edge, and had a kydex high-ride sheath made for it, all courtesy of our own Michael Burch. (http://www.burchtreeblades.com)

The knife is used, but not abused at all. She's done some light chopping, and the finish is smoothed out a bit in that sweet spot they all have. You can refer to the photos below to see the condition of the finish. The resoprine C handle is in excellent condition, and if you've ever held one of these, I don't have to tell you how comfy it is. The pictures show the knife in the kydex sheath, complete with tek-lok, and I'm also including the craptastic nylon one they came with new. It's in perfectly servicable shape, but isn't brand new.

I'm asking sold o.b.o. for this great blade, and that includes Priority Mail shipping & Insurance for U.S buyers. I'll consider international offers, but please PM or e-mail me to discuss shipping and whatnot beforehand. I accept PayPal and USPS Money Orders, and as always with my sales, I give a 3-day inspection period to ensure you're happy with the knife. Please feel free to shoot me PM or e-mail if you have any questions or concerns. Thanks for looking!

I see this is sold, but just out of curiousity, how did you like the high ride for that knife? How hard was un-sheathing and re-sheathing?
 
The high ride sheath made the knife much more wearable in more situations. Instead of flopping around your thigh, it rode high enough to be a lot more managable. Getting the knife in and out wasn't a problem, as tilting it forward or back was pretty easy with the teklok.

Cheers.
