First the BM 710. In D2 steel with the standoffs, not the large black backspacer. So no blade hitting the backspacer, and it looks better with the standoffs IMO.
This one has been modified with holes, as seen in the photos. Action is smooth on the axis lock. Blade is pretty much dead center. Blade is in near perfect shape, almost no signs of use.
This knife also now has a Brous Blades clip on it, as the BM clip ends up terminating at a hole, making the clip almost useless. Now with this clip and holes scales, you can clip this knife in your pocket and remove it without issue. My only qualm with the Brous Blades clip is the very end is a bit more pokey than other clips.
Overall this 710 functions flawlessly and looks good too! I think I have the box, maybe bag. No original clip.
=========================
Second, is this AFCK. Start with the satin clip that was done by previous owner, some slight scuffs on it remain, nothing too bad. Blade centering is off to cliip side, but does not rub on inside of handles.
Action on axis is good, but there is slight left/right play that only goes away if tightened up. But then, it won't flick open, so up to you how you want it to operate.
Blade was stonewashed previously. Then the serrations were removed. One side was made mostly convex, and the other more true flat grind. The blade now is two tones, flats are stonewashed and the main bevels are polished. This wasn't done professionally but looks ok.
Overall, this knife is a user that still functions well.
Price on the AFCK is $105
Price on the 710 is $105
AFCK being harder to find, still in good shape justifies that price. The 710, being in much better shape and function is still worth just under market price IMO, thanks for looking and ask questions in PM or email.
Buyer must be 18yrs of age or more. Shipping CONUS only (that would be USA...). Paypal regular goods with verified shipping address only please. No trades.
