I'm clearing out some space, and have the following for sale (see bottom of post for sale details please!):
Survive! GSO 4.7, Cru-Forge V steel, factory 2nd
Used, Excellent condition.
$SOLD
Some minor glossing of the cerakote from use, but no other coating wear. Comes with original box & sheath, and all contents that came in the box from Survive! (torx bit, anti-vibration fastener goop packet, sticker, etc.). Blade is in excellent shape, and extremely sharp! I was never able to figure out why S! kicked this one down to factory-second — it's a superb knife, and came from them absolutely immaculate, without any identifiable (by me) defects.
Kydex sheath has minor damage from accidentally leaning against a hot pan in camp - it's superficial, not through the kydex, and didn't affect the sheath other than cosmetically. Can be seen in photos.
--------
Kabar/Becker BK9
Used, very good condition, modified.
$220 ---reduced---> $180
Factory coating has been stripped, and patina applied. Stock handles replaced with Micarta. Stock sheath replaced with an AZWelke taco sheath w. leather drop-loop, excellent condition. Also comes with stock sheath, unused. Edge has no damage, and is razor sharp.
Not much I can say about the BK9 that hasn't already been said a bazillion times on the internet. This baby's a workhorse, and if you need a fantastic chopper with great ergonomics and a great sheath, at a great price, this setup's for you.

Levi Smith Custom Recurve Chopper, 9" blade, 1095 Steel w. hamon, kydex sheath.
Excellent Condition — minor superficial scuffing on the blade-face from the kydex, no other damage or wear... otherwise as-new.
$SOLD
Bought from Levi Smith, a maker here on the forum. This knife is a beautiful, one-of-a-kind piece, and is a mean chopping machine. Handle ergos, choil, and grind towards the base of the blade also make for excellent control in finer tasks — very versatile, comfortable, and overall just feels lively and fantastic in the hand. Blade is differentially-hardened, with visible hamon.
Handle is both comfortable and beautiful, and is a composite of two different types of micarta, and carbon-fibre, and the scales also have liners. Carbon-fibre pins and lanyard tube.
I've added a leather retention-strap to the sheath — just some old leather belt and a bit of hardware to keep the blade secured (not really necessary — the sheath's got a very firm "click" around the knife, but with such a big knife, I like a bit of overkill). Can be very easily removed if you like.
--------
Gollik "SLSR Survival Knife", 6" Heavy-duty drop-point knife, Sleipner steel.
Excellent condition — used, but barely so.
$SOLD
Bought from a maker here on the forum (Gollik), in the maker's marketplace area. This is an awesome mid-sized knife with a very heavy-duty blade — 1/4" thick, but very slicey thanks to its wide blade and full-flat grind. Edge on it is spooky-sharp, and it holds it extremely well. Professional heat-treatment protocol w. cryo stage, according to the maker, and it performs very well. Comes with original sheath, and firesteel w. matching micarta handle, and sheath has firesteel loop to carry it.
-------
First "I'll take it" for each of the knives accompanied by a PM to me to make payment & shipping arrangements claims it, pending payment.
All knives ship from British Columbia, Canada, via. Canada Post/USPS. Shipping costs to be determined depending on which knife & destination. I'll ship anywhere in Canada & US. Happy to work with you to determine shipping options/price-points, as I'm around the corner from the post-office, and it's convenient for me to go make inquiries.
Payment will be via Paypal Goods & Services — non-negotiable.
Sincere thanks for looking!!
