Ackerman Serrata, Deviant Blades Curly

[ShanghaiJer]

I will honor the time stamp on an unconditional “I’ll take it” posted here or via PM, however, I do reserve the right to sell (or not) to anyone and for any reason. Prices are PayPal G&S and shipped to the US (international buyers accept all risk and pay the difference in shipping). Only trade interest would be a small Sebenza 21.

First up is a Stuart Ackerman Serrata (#8 from batch 9). This is cast 440C, between 5/32” and 1/4” thick (~5 mm) with with a nice distal taper and black micarta scales. Blade is ~4 3/8”, OAL is ~9”. Has been used (kitchen only) and sharpened once (a couple of swipes on a coarse stone). The blade on this is head and shoulders above the Spyderco production version. Blade is very thin behind the edge making it a sweet slicer and the edge is very easy to touch up since Stuart recommends a coarse stone only, given the structure of the steel. Comes with kydex sheath from Stuart. Some minor scratches on the blade from the kydex.

Asking $250 (PayPal G&S) shipped to the US.

Next up is a Deviant Blades (Filip De Leeuw) Curly in SKM-M4 blue paper steel hollow grind blade (purchased from Blade HQ), bead blasted, 3.75” blade, 8.50” OAL, textured bronze scale, black G10 backspacer. Nice and thin behind the blade. Knife has been carried, lightly used and stropped. Blade is centered and lockup is solid with zero play. Does exhibit a little lock stick sometimes, but that has lessened with use and may go away with time or if the lock bar tension was reduced a bit.

Asking $265 (PayPal G&S) shipped to the US.
