I have 5 knives I have up for trade. I love them all, but I just need something different. Please no low ball offers (unless it is hilariously low ball, I can use a good laugh). I prefer to keep everything near in value, and users are not only fine, they are preferred. Beaters are also okay, but nothing horribly abused.

First is my Cold Steel Spartan. The blade has been acid etched and stonewashed, same with the clip. No right hand clip, but you can order one from CS on the cheap. No box for this.

Second is my RAM (I believe it is Mueller?) Lockback. The blade steel is S90V, and took quite a while to get a good edge on. This thing is my sharpest knife by far. Handles are foliage green G10, liners stainless. The blade opens easily and smoothly with one hand, and lockups like a tank. I have the box.

Third is my Böker Jim Wagner folder. I bought this one used, and did not know it should include a second clip screw and a pivot tool (a snap ring plier works perfectly). The blade is sharp, and only the clip shows much any wear. Opens smoothly and locks up like a tank. The handles are wonderfully contoured. Böker should be able to send another pivot tool and clip screw. I have the box.

Fourth is my Junglee Venom. Lightly used, extremely sharp ATS-34 blade. Two of the clip screws have been replaced due to them being stripped out (the screw holes also stripped, the new screws are slightly larger). The clip is securely on, and the silver screws offset the full black knife nicely. The action is buttery smooth, and lockup is very strong. I have the box.

Last is my Cold Steel Mini Pendleton. The blade shows some minor wear, but nothing major. This knife has been carried a lot, but it really does not show. It is quite sharp, but it isn't a scalpel or anything. Definitely not my best work for sharpening. I have the box and the belt loop is barely used (I carried it in my pocket with just the sheath).

For trades, I would love to get a ZT of some kind, but I will entertain all trades. I prefer folders, but pocketable fixed blades are fine. Absolutely no partial serrations (full serrations are a possibility if they are Spyderco). Remember, I prefer users, just nothing broken (unless it is easily fixed) but no major damage. I prefer only continental US, but a deal can be worked out for Alaska, Hawaii, and Canada.

Lasltly, contact by email is easiest. Just note in the thread that you sent me an email (easier to keep track of messages). I will contact you as quickly as I can, but I could be asleep or in class (hopefully not both).
 
I guess I should add a list of thigs I want. Like I said, I want a ZT (folder specifically). I woild also like to get a decent butterfly, like a Kimura or Mini Morpho. I could also dig me a Manix or a Manix lightweight. Nothing else in specific. I will trade multiples for one, but I would prefer to not trade for multiples.

Edit: I am so sorry! It seems I accidentally disabled emails when I made my account. It seems ro be working now. I apologize for the confusion.

Emails answered. Also, please remove the direct link to my email. I don't like my email being out in the open like that.
 
Böker Jim Wagner, Cold Steel Spartan, Cold Steel Mini Pendleton, and Mueller RAM all traded. Only the Jungles Venom is left.

Adding in another knife. Now up for trade is my Safety Orange Spyderco Urban. The blade has been resharpened (to a very sharp edge!) and lightly used, but shows almost no wear. I can literally only see 2 faint scratches. The blade is slightly off center, but maybe only 15% off. Handles were smoothed down, but just to remove some aggressiveness from them; they still provide good friction. Action is smooth.

What I would really like to get is a Manix plus a little cash (unless the Manix has an interesting mod, like a good blade refinish). As I said before, please no low ball offers. The Urban is just a hair too small for my tastes.
