Purchased this as an Xmas present for myself last year, but decided I'm just not into balisongs anymore.

Unable to post a pic right now, but pic from original thread is HERE.

IIRC, I paid 75 + shipping for this knife. Some light scuffs/scratches on the bolsters, as would be expected with a 30 year old balisong, but the original owner said it had never been carried or used and that remained true with me. I opened the package, flipped it for a moment or two, oiled the pivots, and put it away in a drawer and forgot about it.

This is a RARE balisong, even though it isn't terribly valuable. I've been watching the forums for years and have never seen another like it. If it were NIB I'd venture to guess it'd be worth around 150, but there is no box and there are some scuffs on the bolsters. I'm going to price this for a quick sale:

$50, shipped Priority Mail w/ tracking, CONUS only, non-CC Pay Pal or USPS MO only.

No trades.

Thanks.

Just bought another knife, so I'm reducing the price on the bone Gypsy.

Price will not be reduced further. Knife will likely be withdrawn after the weekend and donated if I can't get fifty bucks for it. PayPal preferred.

Thanks.
 
I happen to have one just like it that was my Dad's. Mine's been around the block but is still quite nice.
