First knife:
>O1 tool steel (3/16" thick) hardened to approx. 59 Rc
>Full flat grind (Extremely sharp!)
>Green G11 Handle scales
>Plastic formed sheath, looks different, but works excellent. No belt loop.
I designed this knife on CAD, and cut most of it on a CNC machine. It's progress was tracked in this post:
http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=459921&highlight=cnc
This knife has some very light machining marks, and intended to be a hard user.
Second knife:
>Ground from a Nicholson file (full hardness, kept very cool throughout grinding) 1/8"thick
>Full flat grind with distal taper.
>G11 Handle scales
>No sheath
This knife has some very minor scratches for a zero edge grind. It gets very sharp due to being at file hardness.
I will trade both as a set for (PE only please, new or lightly used is okay):
>BG-42 Spyderco Military
>ZDP/CF Spyderco Caly 3
>Swamp Rat M6 w/ sheath
>Scrapyard SS4 w/sheath
>Benchmade Large Rukus
>Swamp Rat and Scrapyard knives (preferably w/ sheath)
>Maybe a nice Ranger, Fallkniven, or Bark River.
>Leather Ratmandu sheath + $ or outdoor gear
>Newer GPS
>Other nice Fixed blades or Folders (I am willing to +/- cash to even trades)
I'd love to trade for a Nikon Buckmaster rifle scope (Black, 4.5-14x40) if you have one in like new condition.
