The usual introductions, terms, trade interests, and pictures are in the 2nd post.
Emerson CQC 10. Used but still in good shape. It has a V edge, done by the previous owner on either a WE or EP. He did a very good job. I dropped it once so there is just a small bit of jacked up edge about a half inch down from the tip. Very minimal though, a few passes on a stone will take it out. Normal wear on the clip. Normal wear on the g10. Solid lock up with no blade play. I believe it sits just about center. I will confirm later and edit. Comes with a box that has seen better days.
Rebladed Emerson Commander. Used but in solid shape. One of a kind! It has an m390 blade made by Reese Weiland and was later shaped to its current state by Charlie Mike. The blade is thicker than standard Emersons so it does not have room for any washers. Still opens smoothly though. I can easily thumb it via the wave hook. The tip is rolled a little bit but it will sharpen out (I'm not skilled enough to mess with higher end steels). Some marks on the g10, pivot screw and the clip. Locks up solid with no blade play. The lock will stick a little bit when waved. The blade sits a little towards the clip side. No box nor the original blade/washers.
Benchmade 710 USER. The clip is scratched up pretty good. One of the Omega springs is snapped. Because of this, when it locks up the bar slightly tilts to one side (1mm maybe) and there is slight up and down play. If you give it just a tiny push up it negates the play. With a new spring I'm sure it will lock up fine. No side to side and opens and closes smooth. Normal wear on the handles, nothing really to note. I think it is just off center toward the presentation side. Hard to tell. Comes with the box, papers and baggie.
Spyderco Sage 1. Used but it great shape. Light wear here and there. Nothing that will show up in pictures. Locks up solid with no blade play. Centered blade. Comes with box and papers.
gimmejr recurve chopper. User. Coated .2in A2 blade. 13in overall with an 8in blade. Micarta handle. Mr. Garrison put a very good edge on this knife. Used it to fell 3 small trees each about 3-4in diameter. Still shaving after the first two. Could use a touch up now though. The coating is a worn in the recurve and a few other spots along the edge. Kydex sheath no box.
Backwoods recurve fixed blade. Lightly used. I believe it is made out of 1095. .15 thick. 8.5in overall with a 4.25in blade. About 4in of cutting edge. Very light patina. Not sure what wood the handle is made from, maple perhaps. Lots of character though. Sits in an attractive, tooled leather sheath.
