This is the knife in original sheath

And out of the sheath

Lovely knife...the sheath is not what it deserves :lol


Worry not. Check out the custom, double dangler, affter market sheath (by Topknot no less)

You get the knife and both sheaths.

The knife has been lightly used and sharpened, It has been rubbed down with 00000 wire wool and acid dipped to create the grey patina (avoids future rust problems). This removes the original painted on BRKT logo - but gives a more stain resistant knife.

There are no dents, batoning marks, edge chips or any damage.

Price?

Well It would cost over £200 with the custom sheath

Shall we say £100 delivered including both sheaths?.

First to post on here gets it....PayPal only (as a gift.& you pay commission please)

nice knife at a good price, i love the 2nd sheath, do you have the contact info for the maker cheers..good luck with your sale

That BRKT sheath is rotten! None of their knives come with a decent sheath, they may as well send them without one and I'd just carry the knife in my teeth! b Walkabout, the fellah you want to speak to for a sheath like that is Topknot, who is a member here. I also have one of his sheaths that looks very similar to that tooling wise for my F1 (A knife Red adores!) which he knocked up inside a week and had it back with me. His work is great.

Best of luck with the sale Red!

excellent bargain. I was tempted but i am saving for a bernie and the convex bevel bit at the moment is beyond my sharpening kung fu.

With all the lovely bargain sharps floating around at the moment, it was only a matter of time before I rationalised the purchas - I honestly thought his would have been snapped up and therefore I would have no decision to make.

I agree about the convex but shall see if my patience stands up to it - if not it may end up being a full flat but that would be a shame and admission of defeat!

Seeing as all my sharpening is done on waterstones I'm wondering if this would be easier on a mouse mat but all this is half the fun of a new knife. OOh so excited. Will have to have a little clearout of gear now to justify my new toys.
