I'm selling some redundant balisongs that I just don't find myself carrying or using anymore. All have been well used, often carried, and resharpened. And by resharpened, I don't mean they've been touched up, I mean reprofiled at least once. All show signs of use and wear on the blade and handles. But despite their lives spent cutting stuff and not just collecting dust, they're solid, free of anything but cosmetic damage, and have plenty of life left in them. All are sharp enough to shave hair off your arms. Original boxes with all 3.
I have little idea what the current market value of what a NIB model would cost, and less what these used examples would be, so my initial prices might be high, and I'll play it by ear from there.
First up is the first balisong I ever bought, a Benchmade 42MC. This is from the original run Benchmade did all those years ago. 250 MC models were made, divided (unevenly) between the 42, 42s, 43, 46, and 47. IIRC 56 of the 42MC were made. 440C blade. Being the first one I bought, it was heavily used, has been reprofiled at least a couple times (has a nice convex edge grind), but remains the most solid Benchmade Bali-Song I've owned other than a 42C (precursor to the 42MC) with the least amount of blade play of them all. Asking $225 Sold!.
Second up appropriately enough was the 2nd balisong I ever bought, a 31S. Pre-Production 447/500. Plain edge portion has been reprofiled, but the serrations were only ever touched up lightly. Asking Traded!.
Last is a 42-400. Not just any 42-400, it's #42
of 125. Again, this knife has been carried, used, and reprofiled once. D2 blade. Asking $325 SOLD!.
All prices include shipping via USPS Priority. PayPal (I'll eat the fees) or USPS money order accepted. If you're outside the USA the cost will be more (for shipping and "cross border" PP fees). I will not ship to a country where they are illegal, so don't ask.

Before making an offer, read below!
Please do not make offers in this thread. Email me. As I said above, I'm not sure of the current market value of these knives, so I'll consider offers, but please don't insult me with idiotic lowball amounts. If you make me an offer and you don't get a response, it's because I'm ignoring it for what should be obvious reasons.
Only possible trades at this time would be for a Spyderco Stretch in CF/ZDP or a Spyderco Street Beat.

Thanks for looking.
