[stevekolt]

Thanks! I wrote the seller for pics of the opposite side...

A few months ago Buck received some incredible Ironwood..I am torn between Ironwood and Koa in high grade and for the BOTM I'm sure Buck used the best of what they had.

Yes! Won the auction, and I may have a lead on the micarta 20CV version also!

congrats nice grab. I was gonna bid but I decided against as I knew you were after it. glad you got it. nice to see theses end up with the fellas here.

Good deal Steve ! Congrats!

Congrats Steve!
Give us a look see when you get it.

As for the 20cv skblades version I ain’t partin with mine. Lol . It’s my main work edc and it’s the best I’ve ever had for that capacity. I hope you get one, if it’s like mine you’re going to be very satisfied especially after it gets broke in and limber. I wouldn’t doubt that S35vn version will perform just as well but the brown micarta on the 20cv version is work tough and don’t show much wear.

Thanks all. jbmonkey, that was very gracious of you. I really appreciate the fact that you decided to sit this one out. Will have to buy you a few beverages if we ever get a chance to meet!

naw. appreciate it though. I'd buy the drinks and you can show me that knife and let me play with it. ......you're ever in Florida, after covid mess is over, give me a holler.

 

[stevekolt]

jbm, right back to you if you're ever up this way in WV!

 

[GPyro]

I was gonna bid on it too.
But JB talked me outta doing so.

 

[stevekolt]

Thank you also GP, it is really appreciated! And of course, if we get to meet the first few are on me! During the bidding there were 6 watchers. Are any of the other three watching this thread?

 

[GPyro]

The only reason I didn't bid on it was you wanted it so much.( and your not a bonehead, ha)
I almost bid the opening price 'cause you waited so long, I thought maybe you decided to save your money........ and man this is the wrooooooong hobby for that way of thinking.
So the way I figure it you owe me a dollar
I just like the wood handled Vantages.
And I like picking on JB 'cause he's always such a nice guy.
I do look forward to your pics.
Do me a favor, and show it with your favorite beverage.
Cheers!
