emergency truck repairs in progress............ need to order a bunch of truck parts from the USA, not carried in Canada. The USD to CDN $ exchange rate is beyond brutal. The parts I need are speciality and i, looking at about $700 CDN to get them. so as a result i'm purging the gear locker of rarely used gear, including knives, load bearing gear, and misc. everything listed will have insurance, tracking and is shipped via Canada Post. Shipping from up here is brutal, i will do my best to integrate the shipping into the listed price. pics loading , may take several days. please be patient. It will take several days of photography and posting and pricing to get everything listed. Canada / USA only. Sorry, but no Europe, or Hawaii, or South America. Certified Bank Cheque only. (this may change but right now i have no time to research) all prices in USD. again, it will take me several days to pile stuff up, photograph and price it. please be patient. UPDATED NOV 6 2016.

next up , a sweet hardcore BOKER PLUS combo deal, the well reviewed Boker Plus Apparo hollow handle fixed blade, designed by Martin Knives and made by BOKER, paired with the also well reviewed BOKER PLUS VOX crash ax EDIT NOV 23 2016: BOKER APPARO HAS BEEN TRADED. The Apparo is Brutally tough 1/4" 440C stainless. Takes a wicked sharp edge if your good. The sawback actually works pretty well if you put some grunt into it and sharpen them with diamond files. Good for notching for lashing. Sheath , meh.......its functional. The cap for the handle has a ding on the lanyard loop, i would personally grind that off. The cap is long enough to center drill the inside for a big ferro rod...hint hint....store tinder inside the handle. Overall length: 12 3/8" Blade length: 7" Weight: 17.6 oz.

Sorry man, couldn't help myself. Hope you get it figured out - shoot me a message if you want, I might be able to help out somehow (short of buying your stuff).
That's a bummer.. I hate cars and their issue's.. Good luck trying to raise some funds.. Might the SOE be a micro shotgun rig ??
Dang Bushy, sorry to hear that. I just blew my fun money for the next long while, so I'll likely be unable to help out by buying any of your goodies... I'll see what I can do though.
Jeep- just empty every pocket... and gear locker. Sorry to hear of the bad luck. My Z71 is just waiting to crap out on me, I know it! Just the right time hasen't struck for it to start crappin!
If you have any extra dutch ovens you want to sell I'd buy one. The oven kind, not the campfire kind with feet.
Is it Wednesday in Canada yet? Or did you decide to just burn the Liberty to the ground and go back to the Tracker (probably the best option)?
