Hello all,

I have one knaf for sale here today.

Payments are due via PayPal Goods & Services (unless we work something else out) and all prices are shipped CONUS.

I only have a few confirmed sales on Reddit, but I have many more over on BladeForums. My name there is SPownson if you would like to check my credentials.

"I'll take it" in the comments takes priority. Please pay within 1 hour or I will move on if there are others interested. Chat me with any questions.

Feel free to make an offer, worst I can say is no!



1 Pictures Osprey Knife and Tool Warthog (guardless), grey G10, black liners. I purchased this about 6 years ago directly from Chris (owner/operator of OK&T) and have used it fairly sparingly since. I have sharpened this once or twice; and currently, it is wearing a very nice, semi-convex, 5,000 grit edge which absolutely sings! This will do excellent work on just about anything you want it to. The Behind-the-edge thickness ranges from about 0.011-0.015, which imo is perfect for a small fixie like this. The steel is CPM-154, about 0.10 thick at the spine, with a tapered tang; again, great steel for this kind of knife. The handle is sandblasted to give it a fine texture and contoured so nicely, it feels great in hand in any grip I've used it with. I really hate to sell this, but it's redundant in my collection and I would love to send it to someone who will use and appreciate it.

It comes with a sheath with a detachable belt loop made from a Kryptek-pattern Kydex. There is some very slight rattling in the sheath, but it's not too noticeable at all and the retention is perfect. The sheath works very well, the only issue is it scratches the shit out of the blade (as most Kydex does). Please see the pictures, I tried to take them in the worst light possible for the scratches. The transitions on the handle are very good, except for right at the butt, where you can just feel the transition between metal and G10; it is not very noticeable though, and when using is unnoticeable. The same is true for the G10 pins, all smooth except for one that is ever-so-slightly noticeable.

Rating: C (for scratches and sharpening)

Price: $200

Thanks for looking!
 
Is this knife still available? If so, is there any way to send me a few pics of it? I couldn’t get he link to load properly. Thanks!
