The fine print:
● All prices are for PayPal G&S with the knife shipped first class to CONUS destinations.
● If you are paying from an overseas PayPal account (but want to ship to CONUS), please add 2.5%, since PayPal charges extra.
● Generally, the first person to unconditionally claim a knife publicly and then promptly follow up with a PM and payment gets the knife, though I reserve the right to sell to whom I please. “I will take it, pending question answered” is not unconditionally.
● Thank you (gmartin12 and others), but no trades at this time.
● Please do not post offers within the thread; this is not a Saudi Arabian bazaar. If you have an offer, please PM me or post your email address, and I will get in touch with you.
The big print:
I keep buying knives, even though I have plenty, so some of the older ones that don’t get used have to go. Here are the knives for sale:
ZT 0095 BW. SOLD. Purchased this LNIB/excellent condition specimen with upgraded, blue hardware, from another member. The more experience I have with ZT, the more I realize that I respect them but I just don’t need a tank of a knife in my pocket. The box is in medium condition. The original black hardware is not included because it was not included when the knife was sent to me.

Real Steel Megalodon 2017 in M390. SOLD. Good condition. These retail new for over $200. Mine has one flaw: a light scratch on the show side near the pivot, which you can see in the pictures. So, if you’ve been itching to get a Real Steel Megalodon which has a light scratch near the pivot, today is your lucky day! (Note that the pivot itself isn’t scratched, but the areas on two sides of it each have a scratch.) If this knife doesn’t sell for a reasonable price, I may take the scales off and run them through my rock tumbler to try to get off that scratch; the scales are stonewashed, anyway, so this would probably work rather nicely, as the scratch is shallow.
This is a fairly long blade, at 3.875”, and the action is impressive. I also really like how the rear is rounded to eliminate hot spots. Several times I’ve contemplated getting rid of this knife, but the design and action have kept me from doing so. I’ve ordered so many new knives lately, though, that I think I’m finally read to say goodbye to this one.

Fox Core FX-604. SOLD. Catch and release. I’ll be cautious and say that the condition is excellent, instead of LNIB. Anyway, I was curious about this knife, but I already have knives that are capable of what this knife is capable of doing, so this one goes.

Quartermaster Mr. Roper. SOLD. I’ve had this for a while but have only used it a handful of times. This is a curious knife, because the previous owner said that it had been owned and modded by none other than Matt Cucchiara himself. Is it true? Who knows. The knife is very pretty but not so easy for me to open and close. (I’m not that dexterous.) It also had a bit of lateral blade play, so I applied loctite to the pivot. This solved the lateral play, but I probably cranked down the pivot a little too much, since deployment of the blade is considerably slower now. Feel free to screw with it yourself to try to get an optimal balance between blade play and speed of deployment.
With regard to ergos, the knife is more comfortable in the hand than expected. In the end, this is a rather nice knife with the caveat that opening and closing it isn’t quite as speedy as one would typically find these days.
