Trying to consolidate my trade thread so here are all my blades for trade. I will be adding others as soon as the individual threads pass their two week mark for relisting. For now I'll just add a link to the threads.
1. Bark River Kephart. Don't see these come around often. Used very little. Very sharp. The markings on the blade are faint but they are there. Beautiful Black Cherry Burl handles with brass hardware. BRKT considers this an exotic wood. I guess that just means short supply. A2 steel. Excellent knife. I think the sheath is a sharpshooter. It works but it's not great. The firesteel loop is stretched out from my .50" monster steel. Other than that it's in good shape and holds the knife well. Knife is in a conservative 98% condition. Really nice blade for woods chores.
2. Blind Horse Knives Machete. This is straight from BHK. All the scratches and scuffs on the blade came from them. Has factory edge. This is how they come new and this one is new. It was one of those deals where my I showed it to my chick and said "Man I want this." which means I quickly ordered one... well so did she for my birthday. So I'm keeping and using the birthday one from her and this one is new and unused from BHK. Thought I'd keep it as a "Spare" but I don't see my user ever wearing out. These are good dang machetes. OD Green micarta handle and factory sheath. Let me say... the scratches come out easy as pie with a scotch brite pad. I buffed my user up and it looks great. Just mild surfaces blems is all these are. Fall is coming... you NEED this for your pack. It has the rounded spine for draw knife work but the spine near the handle is square for fire steel work. They though of everything.

OK... what I'm after. Busse Busse Busse and Kin.
First priority on my list is an AK-47. Don't care if it's stripped, don't care if it's used, don't care if it has a sheath. I miss my old one and want one again. From here I'm interested in the following...
Busse American Kensei
Busse Ruck
Swamp Rat Waki
Swamp Rat Rucki
Busse Knives in INFI (I tend to like the ones with a 4" blade and larger but will entertain them all) Primary Busse knives of interest are TGMO, TGLB, NO-E, ASH-1, Steel Heart, Steel Heart II (A2 or INFI), SHBA, BA3, BTACLE, SJTACLE. Focusing on blades in the 5 to 8 inch range.
Swamp Rats with 5" blade or over. (Most interested in R6)
Scrapyards with 5" blade or over. (Most interested in 511, 711, and 1311, Scrapizashi)
