Repost with price drops
I have 2 nice choppers up for sale today, a Big Chris 10" blade in 3V, and a Justin Gingrich polished 10" blade in 5160. Looking to sell these, but I will field offers on like valued production folders.
The Big Chris is a custom that I got used here on the forums. Awesome chopper that I really wanted to use, but I don't do as much chopping as I thought I would. I believe it is about 5/16" thick, 3V steel, with camo G10 handles. Previous owner said the handles came loose and were refitted with the flared tubes. great two handed handle for balance and power. Good grind, looks to have been sharpened well. I have not sharpened it, and only used it once. No sheath. GONE paypaled and shipped CONUS.

Next is a Justin Gingrich 10" blade in 5160. Made in 2003-2004 small run of 250 blades. I had this information given to me by the previous owner and confirmed by Justin Gingrich via email. See a quote from his response below. It has been lightly used and has some slight wear. I have not personally used it. It comes with a basic sheath which put some scratches on the polished finish. Photos attempt to show main wear. Appears to have the original edge, but could use a sharpening. If you have any questions just let me know.$old all inclusive paypal and shipping CONUS.
"Thank you for your interest. The blade was meant to be a heavy chopper/camp knife. The time frame as well as numbers made are correct. It was a one time small "production" run with all the grinding and handle fitting being done by hand by me. The RC is right at the 58 range so should give you the best edge retention with great toughness as well.
