Benchmade 707 and 53 for sale.
I received both of these in trade recently and they just aren't doing it for me. I'll ship USPS priority, US sales only, PayPal preferred. Trades considered for other folders, but no autos, balisongs, or plastic handles.
Thanks for looking

Benchmade 707 Sequel - $70 SOLD
Has been sharpened, carried and used. Normal wear to anodizing and a few light scratches on the blade.
Solid lockup with no vertical play. Pivot has been tuned, lubricated with nano oil, and loctited to what I feel is the best balance between smooth action and side to side play. Flicks open and closed easily but with a bit of play if you wiggle the blade. Tightening the pivot fixes this.
Blade is not perfectly centered, but does not scrape the liner when opened right handed. I don't have the original box, but I will pack it in another benchmade box and cloth benchmade bag.
Benchmade 53 Mangus Marlowe - $85 SOLD
First production run BM53, 49/100. Has been used and carefully sharpened, but it's in very good shape. Clip has a couple scratches and the G10 has scuffs from the latch which are unavoidable with this model. No scratches on the blade that I could find, but I see some staining at the base of all the tang pins. Clip screws were slightly stripped so I replaced them with another pair. Pivots have been lubricated with nano oil. Includes box, papers, and cloth benchmade bag.
