Unused ZDP-189 Mule Team, one of the early, non tested, hard blades. It has very nice Brown Canvas Micarta handles and a Kydex sheath, both by Tom Krein.

$200 shipped, including paypal.

Please e mail me at gunmike1@comcast.net if interested (that is my paypal address as well). I can e mail pictures if you are interested.
 
I was told all of the zdp mules were too hard. What do you mean non tested, if that's so how do we know it's not too hard?

thanks
 
This was one of the first ZDP Mules that wasn't hardness tested by Spyderco. When reports of cracking in the knives came to light Spyderco stopped shipping these and hardness tested all of the knives they still had. I believe they released some of the knives that tested out at lower hardness levels (64-65 RC I think) and never released the rest. This knife may be 66-67 RC and it may be brittle, but I have never had it hardness tested. I just want to let people know that this isn't one of the ZDP Mules that Spyderco tested and released.

Mike
