My recent indulgences in higher end Shiros has motivated me to offer for sale the following serial (production) Shirogorov folders. I am the second owner of all these which were purchased from their original owners who also happen to be BF.Com members in good standing order.
Condition: I describe all three as very lightly used but still in great and excellent condition. They have never been used by me to cut anything but the occasional paper cutting obsession, they all have been pocketed ranging from a mere handful to a dozen of times and then been put away as fancy toward them had shifted! They have all been obsessively flipped open and fidgeted with during the time set aside for watching TV. There are no nicks, scratches, obvious blemish or anything immediately glaring that can be considered as flaws. These Shiros are all pampered, never dismantled or otherwise messed with!
The 111 CF has seen the least fondling / handling and the NeOn Lite has seen the most handling & fondling out of the three. All edges are absolutely factory, never been honed or stropped but as stated before, I have cut some copy paper and the NeOn Lite may have been used by its original owner to cut open taped boxes, but I'm not sure.
1- The 111 CF$895.00 SOLD: MRBS / Black CF scales with Vanax 37 steel, comes with the original box, the U.S distributor's COA, black Shiro cloth and a pivot tool bit made by Josh of R.E.K (valued at $60 on Josh's site). A copy of its original purchase receipt by the original owner will also be included. The blade flips out like a rocket and snaps with authority. It drops shut easily with some very minor shaking so it needs to broken-in some more. The action, mechanics and centering are all perfect.
2- The F3R$700.00 SOLD: MRBS / Black & Orange CF scales (the orange is much more noticeable in the sunshine) with M390 steel, comes with the original box, the U.S distributor's COA and black Shiro cloth. A copy of its original purchase receipt by the original owner will also be included. The blade flips out like a rocket and snaps with authority. It drops shut easily with some very minor shaking so it needs to broken-in some more. The action, mechanics and centering are all perfect.
3- The Neon Lite SOLD: MRBS / Ti scales (great finish - almost blemish free for a pocketed folder!) with M390 steel, comes with the original box but there was never any tray inside the box when I received it, the U.S distributor's COA and black Shiro cloth. The blade flips out like a rocket and snaps with authority. It drops shut like a guillotine so must be careful! The action, mechanics and centering are all perfect.
Plenty of pictures presented which are also part of the description:
