I have for sale 4 different knives today. The 3 Benchmades were all received in a recent trade. The 757s Vicar is LNIB, the 818 Mini Loco is LNIB, and the 3rd is a Benchmade 239 Balisong that was produced sometime during the 1990’s. This is quite a rare model from what I have researched, and these don’t show up often. The 4th is a LNIB Giantmouse Ace Biblio in Green Micarta that was purchased brand new by me about a week and a half ago directly from Giantmouse.
I will do my best to describe these knives exactly as they are and in the exact condition they came to me. I will sell to the first "I'll take it" listed by timecode in the thread. Although, I do reserve the right to sell to whoever I see fit, for whatever reasons may arise. No Trades. I will not entertain any low-ball offers on the knives, as I know what I have. Photos will be included for the knives, more can be sent if requested via PM. Prices will include shipping and will be via Paypal Goods and Services, although I will remove 3% from the cost if you’d like to use F&F. Shipping only within the lower 48 US states. With that being said, please do feel free to PM me questions about the knives, thank you!
1) Benchmade 757S Vicar (Sibert Edition)
This knife is LNIB, centering is pretty great. I never carried it and it shows no signs of wear from what I can see. It’s a beast of a knife. The action is great on open and requires some nudge on close, I just think the washers still may need broken in. Comes with original box and pouch. Asking $old
2) Benchmade 818 Mini Loco
This knife is LNIB, the centering is perfect on it. It flips open easily and drops shut with the axis lock unlocked. I can see no signs of wear on the knife and to my knowledge it has never cut anything. This was in the very first production batch at #129 of 1,000. Comes with original box and pouch. Asking $old
3) Vintage Benchmade 239 Balisong
This rare collector’s piece was made sometime during the 1990’s. After doing some research, it would seem that these are chrome plated Zamak handles and Weehawk blade. I tried shaving some hair, and it absolutely did, so it is razor sharp. It flips quite well and very freely. It definitely got some use from its complete original owner, as there are marks on the handles, quite some wear on the bottom of the latch (much like someone used it to hammer something), and some scratches on the mirror polished blade. There seems to also be the slightest bit of corrosion showing up on the blade. It is still absolutely functional and flips great. Comes with Benchmade replacement box and pouch. Asking $old
4) Giantmouse Ace Biblio Green Micarta
This knife is LNIB, it has shown a bit of wear on the micarta only from me handling it, as you know, that’s simply what happens with micarta. The blade has only cut one piece of paper and was carried only two days. It’s just been flipped around honestly. The detent is strong, but not too strong, a flip can be missed due to the small flipper tab, but the detent also allows for thumb opening as well as spydie flicking. These are sold out everywhere as far as I know, as they only make about 400 every batch. Asking $old! ($175)
