Come along to the amazing Summer Moot (21st July - 2nd August), a festival of bushcrafting and camping in a beautiful woodland PLEASE CLICK HERE for more information.
I still have my first knife. It's fugly but it didn't stop me from using it
It's more fun to use a self made thing

You get to 2000 views Trev you could offer it as the prize.
Sorry if that sounded below the belt, Mate. Grow to love or give it another make over if no one trades you for it. Figure it as practice makes perfect, at least you won't risk ruining a knife you might like that way.

We know Mike, being nice doesn't hurt or cost anything though. I've got two moras but that wouldn't stop me owning a third, fourth or fifth if they were each different to each other. Trevs is a one off, there aint gonna be another the same.
i've already skimmed off the swage line and thinned the shoulders down so its got much cleaner lines but not much else i can do now apart from be patient lol
I didn't think i was being unkind. Just offering a potential reason for why it isn't shifting. Telling everyone how much you hate it is hardly a good sales technique either for example.

i do hate it mate , but having said that ,there is nothing wrong with what i've made it's just not my taste all tradional and what not .
i was brought up not to tell lies and be truthful in whatever you do or say .Honesty pays just because i hate it doesn't mean somebody else thinks the same .
Maybe you could give it as a gift to someone, I think this knife is really beautiful, but unfortunately, I just haven't got anything to trade. I think you maybe surprised if you give it away what things will start coming back to you ..... It is a law of the universe 
we gave our car away and a few weeks later another one was given to us out of the blue...... Worth a try?

It does seem that this thread is a bit of an epic and really it's gone off of the actual subject of knife swap to talking theory on swapping, need to swap etc lots of bumping and all that, in fact 4 pages worth of it 
Experience dictates that the longer this thread continues to get the less likely you're going to end up swapping it, although someone might jump in just to halt the inexorable continuation.
an option might be to put it into the gift it on thread, gift it to someone or even start a new thread that's nice and clean offering it for swap and then if someone wants it they can do a deal with you and if they don't you find an alternative way of moving it along without the thread turning into an epic...

So all you need to do is find someone who wants what you have and has something the potential third person else wants. Works well, providing the third person has what you want ...
