I also have two bushcraft style knives, King sharpening stones, and many books on survival/bushcraft and hiking.

Cheers.

Just to be clear... You're selling your used gear for the same price as new?

Totally open to bargain. Allot of this stuff is pretty mint. Also the way I look at it without customs and shipping your saving about 100 bucks. To buy it in new in a store in Korea...forget about it. Anyway, make an offer. OBO.

The knives are these.

Nice. We both use the same gear. I love the Marmot Pinnacle and Limelight 2P tent. I got mine cheaper but I guess the price is fair if you're in Korea (they both go for almost 1000 dollars in Korea, they go for about 800 or so).

I just picked up a Granite Gear air mattress but I really wanted a thermarest. What's the condition of your thermarest pad and how long have you had it and how long have you used it? I'm going to see if I can exchange my Granite Gear pad.

Do you have a list of books?

Also, why are you selling? Are you leaving Korea? How'd you like camping in Korea?

Just busting your chops. I like the jacket... If it was chilly outside I'd make an offer.

List of books:

Bushcraft basics by Ray Mears
Survival and outdoor skills...forgot who wrote it.
SAS Handbook.
How to Hike the AT.

As for the Therma rest. I think I used it maybe 10times. It is in mint condition and it has a manufactuer's lifetime warranty. So if it springs a leak, not saying it will, you can mail it back to them, or REI get a trade in or some cash.

Reason selling: Got in to UL gear and MYOG. This stuff is bomber but ain't exactly UL gear. Used most of this gear on a short section hike of the Appalachian Trail.

Anyway sorry for the late reply.

Cheers.

Tent now 150 bucks.

Thermarest now 80.

Buy the knives and I'll throw in some whetstones.

Buy anything and I'll throw in some other shit.

Later
