Up for trade is a Epsilon Multicam hammock chair with reversible butt warmer (underquilt) and pillow :boggle:

The hammock chair is a single layer 1.55 epsilon multicam hammock chair that can double as a gear hammock, emergency pack over, and even a light use emergency tarp. The butt warmer (underquilt) is 1.9 multicam on one side, 1.1 blaze orange on the other, and is filled with 2 layers of climashield apex 2.5 insulation.

I'm still in the testing phases of the butt warmer, so please note I do not have an accurate temp rating on it yet. Being a prototype, the channeling on it is not the prettiest, but it is entirely usable.

The pillow is 1.9 ounce Multicam on one side, 1.1 orange on the other, and is filled with loose fill primaloft.

The entire system includes a bishop bag that holds everything together, and a dutchware speed hook suspension system with 4' leads and 4' huggers. (Dutch clips not included)

I am open to any trade, but have a soft spot for knives, lights and fire.

As far as value.. No idea

What's the blade style on the folder?
I'll pass on the LMFII.. I just got a nearly new one in my surprise box PIF from Halfastronomical. :thumbup:
I have a very specialized FAK I carry due to my own medical problems.. so the Med kit wouldn't find a use here.
And I have a small box full of various Atwood Prybars and pocket tools.

Sorry Man :(

Is it the Applegate/Fairbairn mini covert (http://www.midwayusa.com/product/989785679/gerber-applegate-fairbairn-mini-covert-folding-knife-292-partially-serrated-spear-point-stainless-steel-blade-black-nylon-handle)? If it is, I'm definitely interested. I carried it's larger brother (http://www.gerbergear.com/Tactical/Knives/Applegate-Combat-Folder_45780) for years when I was in the Navy.


Are you looking at the whole package, or are you interested in just the butt warmer? Cause I know you'll have an ACU chair soon.

That being said.. still entertaining offers.. I have more than 1 available :lol:

no I wish, nothing that fancy. to be honest Id like the chair more than butt warmer, having a family of 5 id like at least 3 chairs. if you can part with a multicam chair ill find other stuff with the knife, give me an hour and ill post complete offer....

What's the liner color, handle color/material?

No liners. Handle is the sandblasted micarta in dark green. Blade is O1 steel. It's a nice little knife. I've used it to cut up some carrots and potatoes, but that's it. I've never touched it as far as sharpening goes; never needed to.

Blade is starting to get a little patina on it, but still looks pretty new. Love my Blind Horse knives, but they deserve to be used and I don't really use this one. I'll get some pictures tomorrow morning.

How

I have only used it once to try it out.

Alright.. I am going to build Dos her choice of butt warmer and chair ( she does not want Multicam)

Waiting on topics from AScott.. But I'm very excited by the BHK blade he's offering in trade :)

Here are some pics. I put the pic of the sheath up so you could see the texture that was imparted when I wet formed it. I do my wet forming in FoodSaver bags and one side is textured. It's on the back of the sheath, so it doesn't really show. I didn't treat the sheath with anything after forming as it hasn't gotten much use. If you are going to use it out in the weather, I'd recommend SnoSeal or some other type of wax for treatment. I wouldn't oil it, it may (will probably) lose it's formed shape.

Also, for some reason the edge of the knife looks black in the photos. I assure you that this is a photo anomaly. There's no color on the blade other than the slight patina you can see starting to form in the close up pics. This blade has never been touched with any oil other than mineral oil so it can be used for food prep. Scales are epoxied and pinned. Knife has been stored outside of the sheath.

This is a stout little knife meant to be used. I'm not sure if you're familiar with BHK's quality, but it is first rate.

Done deal. I own one other BHK blade, and I love it.. The warranty is amazing, and that is one sweet little blade.

You'll have a PM with my contact info in it arrive shortly, I suspect your getting my last trade on the forums ever, as I'm being urged to become a vendor.

I had asked one of the mods yesterday what that entails.. and haven't gotten a response back.. so for the moment:

Trading MidTnJohn my last Multicam Hammock Chair and butt warmer for the Hawk. That's it folks. I'm out of Epsilon.

Mods, please close the thread
