First post or PM gets it, no email or text, must be a valid forum member, If you are not a gold member post your email address and I will contact you, you can delete it afterwards.
Prices include UPS Ground to lower 48, Alaska and Hawaii may be more.
Payment via Zelle, Venmo, PayPal, ACH Transfer or I can send an invoice through Square.
No reference to knives whatsoever in payment notes, if you want a detailed transaction I can invoice you through Square.
US Sales only, no 3rd party shipping transfers.

I will not hold it based on a conditional commitment. Example: "I will take it if...", this is not fair to other buyers.

Happy to entertain solid and reasonable offers via PM, not in this thread, but the first commitment gets it. Negotiating does not hold the knife for you.

No games, you buy, I ship, you happy, me sad for losing some badassery from my life.

All of these have been 100% reliable to the extent I've used them, fire strong and have no mechanical defects.



Microtech Troodon S/E
Tan scales, black hardware, 2 tone CTS204P blade, box and all paperwork
Carried a time or two, couple of faint marks on blade likely from opening a couple of boxes, only visible in right light
$390, dropped to $370

Microtech Ultratech S/E Green Camo
Green and black camo scales & blade, black hardware, Elmax blade, box and all paperwork
Carried and used, typical wear on clip edges, marks on blade and polished satin finish in areas, nowhere I can see that the finish is gone on the blade just marks. Scales are in great shape, couple of minor marks and one spot on corner near clip where the green wore down to black and a touch of silver is showing. Pictures do a good job of showing overall condition.
$375 dropped to $350

Microtech Gen 1 QD Scarab

This was the first release of tan after the first black run. I'm the original owner and bought it when I was having back to back carpal tunnel surgery and wanted a one handed knife for EDC. This knife has been carried and used quite a bit in the nearly 20 years it's been with me. The original wacky screws got loose and it pre-dated bits being available so I swapped them out with button head Torx, the skateboard tape came loose so I removed it all. It has been reprofiled to a near mirror on my Edgepro probably 15 years ago and is plenty sharp, perfect for maintaining on a Sharpmaker.The finish on the blade is plenty worn as is the clip and firing button. The scales are in surprisingly good condition with a few light marks here and there. Also included is the unused nylon belt case, diamond sharpener and clip removal tool. All of those items are sure to be collectible on their own. The firing button is very firm in both direction, stiff firm not dragging/bound up firm. I always figured it'd get looser with use but as you'll see that didn't happen. If you are a metro you may mess up your manicure but most people with strongish hands can fire it no problem, maybe after taking a run or two at it :p
This is your uncle's awesome Rat Rod only in a vintage Microtech. It has been 100% strong and reliable since day 1 and I can say with confidence they don't make them like this any more.
No clue where to price this as I have never seen one like it to compare, willing to entertain reasonable arguments about price, be it higher or lower.
