Three Obenaufs for sale here, all are in new condition. I am the original owner of each of these knives and none have been used, carried, or sharpened. Safe queens from day one. Fit, finish, opening, lockup, etc is perfect on all three of these.

Two Mike Obenauf Bandits here: both have 3 & 1/8 inches blades, about 7.25 inches open. Handles are satin finished titainium.

The Damascus version is marked serial #1, Mike made 25 of these. Backspacer is titatanium on this one and it is tip-up. Damascus is Mike Norris Stainless (AEBH, 302 & D2), ladder pattern. $500

The S30V is marked “Prototype”, blade is handrubbed S30V, I believe 20 were made, plus this proto. Backspacer is G10, clip is tip down. $475

Lastly, a Mike Obenauf Model 4 small. Blade is S30V, 2 &7/8, just about 7 inches open. Bolsters are carbon fiber, scales are orange G10, backspacer is black G10. $400

As many of you may be aware of, Mike is no longer making knives. As I also said, these are new condition knives with no issues whatsoever. However, should the knife develop any problems with use, it is unlikely that you will be able to establish contact with Mike for repair/adjustments. That said, as this knife utilizes a fairly standard liner-lock or frame-lock design, any competent knifemaker should be able to perform adjustments and/or repairs should the need ever arise.

All prices are shipped in USA and I will eat the paypal fees.

One more time at $375, any less and I may have to put it in my EDC rotation. Razor sharp handrubbed S30V, beautiful satin finished handles and a dependable framelock design, and a prototype as a bonus!
