This ebay seller is a little nuts with his descriptions and prices but this atrocity is beyond his usual antics. Knife is not a Little Hunter, it ia a model 84 which originally had a 4&1/2" blade that has been cut down to 3&1/2" and reshaped. BEWARE!

It ended, Gene. I guess someone thought the price was right?

It says he ended the listing due to a mistake, John.

Marco, you will see that often when a seller sells item outside ebay. John, possibly because I e-mailed him and straightened him out. Guy is strange, buys knives on the bay and then lists them for twice as much a couple weeks later.

He's back with a different description and lower but still stupid price. He now claims knife is near mint even thought it has been shortened, reshaped, and buffed. First ad he claimed knife blade was 3&1/2", now he says it's 4", originally was 4&1/2".

Thank you, Gene, that's good information to file away for the future. I don't care much for auctions but will participate in one occasionally if it's a knife I really want, so I need all the ammo I can get.
For his new listing all the guy did was change the text a bit and shuffle the first 2 numbers around, originally $745. now $475., I wonder if he thinks he's being clever!
