This is a cool(I think) project I have wanted to do for a while. It is based on the old idea of "trade knives" sold and traded to indigenous people all over the world as traders started making contact. Simple, easy to use, and modify blades for not a lot of cash. These can be used as is, wrapped, or given scales. These are made from .200in thick 5160 and are flat ground on both sides. They have my usual differential heat treat. Overall they are about 10 7/8 with 6in blades(tip to first set of holes). There are two sets of 3/16 diameter holes and three 1/4in diameter holes in the tang to be used for wraps or scales as the end user chooses. Also the tangs are as rolled hardness so feel free to drill different sized holes if you wish 
The blades come as you see them in the first pic accept for the first person to call dibs can have the para cord wrapped one. the G10 scaled knife is not available. I am not offering sheaths or scales for these. I have 9***All Gone*** of these available 
The price is $125 each shipped in the US(paypal or USPS MO)
