My box of six is sold to a lucky AAPK member.

If anyone wants more of these. there is an Ebay seller with not one but TWO full boxes for sale.

Both of these are a mix of green bone and jigged black composition.

Case must have made a lot of that pattern for there to be at least three full boxes of minty knives that we know of. Or maybe just crazy luck?
