This was a warranty replacement. Someone tried to grind a 90-degree spine in the knife and screwed it up so they sent it in to be replaced. I re-profiled the spine to dress it up (nice 90-degree spine now), cleaned the knife up a bit and started a convex on the edge. I also replaced the handle bolts to the new bolts we use now. Knife is pretty damn sharp - actually real sharp. We need to give this one away to someone, so I will leave it up to Strig to post whatever rules/contest he wants to do for the giveaway. All we ask is someone not try to warranty this knife again. This is an excellent using knife. It comes with a Kydex sheath but the sheath has no clip plate or attachment, so the new owner would need to get a MOLLE back or something else to carry it. This knife has character, unlike a new knife. Would much rather have this one than a new one since it will last someone a lifetime and is already broken in! I’d keep it for myself but I already have tons of knives like this and I don’t use ESEE products (except an emergency Izula that stays in one pack (also a warranty replacement) and a JG3 warranty replacement that I reconditioned that stays in my SAR pack). As time allows, we have a few more warranty replacement knives we’ll get up to speed and give away. So, will leave this up to Strig at this point to figure out how he wants to give it away. Good luck.
