Hello all, after lugging around a couple big boxes of knives for the last 10+ years, along with all the other associated lightweight BS that comes with being a grunt, I've decided to clean out some knives. All of these I am the original owner of, I used to be REALLY in to Busse family knives as a teen, and acquired as much as I could. After joining the Army, the Busse's sat in boxes back home and I ended up using disgusting things like Gerbers, yuck. Anyways, all of these were very well loved and cared for and looking for a new home. I can do Paypal, cashapp, zelle, shoot even check via mail if you don't mind waiting until it clears, I am also located in Columbus Ohio.
First up, a Fat ASH-1 in ODG with mag handles in green or black micarta, can't really tell. Comes with a discontinued spec ops survival sheath I sharpied some runes on because I was in to that sort of thing, sheath has a kydex liner done by Rainwalker Creations, which fits the knife perfectly. Knife was sharpened by forum member Richard J and then put away, he also squared off an area near the tip for use with a firesteel. This knife was used very very little and has some rubbing on the crinkle coat and one chip on the butt. ~ $SOLD
Next up is a SYKCO MOD-7, but not your typical MOD-7, a sterile prototype MOD-7. The regular MOD-7 was released as a military overrun around about 2006(?) and featured a SYKCO logo lasered on the blade. The MOD-7 itself is a partially serrated dumpster mutt in SR-77 with a basic handle and a Doublecut finish. This guy I purchased at the westland mall gunshow here in Columbus a couple years after the original drop from the gentleman who used to have a table there(he still around? nice guy), it was sold alongside another sterile MOD-7 which had a fully serrated blade (which I should've bought instead, but instead notified a guy in canada trying to catch them all of its presence). The story I got at the time was that the MOD-7 was originally created at the request of some Marine helicopter pilots, and that this one and its fully serrated brother where two test articles. So its a Sterile blade test MOD-7, some hairline scuffs on the blade from the kydex, otherwise been sitting heavily oiled in its sheath for around 16 years. ~ $SOLD
SYKCO 511, sharpened by me, some stropping compound on the blade. Never used or carried, ended up feeling a little too similar to a ratmandu I ended up beating up on, probably because it is a ratmandu with a res-c handle...how great is that? Tactical cardboard. ~ $SOLD
SYKCO Scrapivore, not sure which hand variant(that was a thing right), never used or carried. Kydex sheath they sold with it, prybar butt, really nice green crinkle coat. ~ $130
Why yes I would love to bundle these knives, thanks for asking.
