Hello everyone, I have come to the realization that I only need one or two nice knives to get all of my daily tasks done. All prices include shipping and PayPal fees, and I will ship fully insured via USPS First Class. If you're interested please send me an email at: jwattsup@comcast.net. Thanks!

Zero Tolerance 0550 w/ Custom Rival Scale:
This 550 is in like new condition. I've only carried it a handful of times, and to my knowledge the previous owner never even used it. The scale was made by forum member RivalCustoms, and is of superb quality. It features a CF bolster and green C-Tek overlay set on top of a black G10 liner. He also added a C-Tek LBS. He gave it a mirror polish, to which I stropped to a very fine edge. I am looking for $200 on this one.

Strider SnG:
This Lego SnG has been carried lightly by myself, and even less by the previous owner. It is in like new condition as well. Lockup is perfect, and it is in the final stage of breaking in. Been resharpened a few times to 40º inclusive. Looking for $350.

Benchmade 707 Sequel:
This blade is in like new condition, and I am the first owner. I carried it ~5 times, and it's only been stropped. Like most Benchmades in my experience, it has had a bit of side-to-side play from the factory. Other than that, it's in great condition and buttery-smooth. I'd like to get $110 for this one.

Kershaw Junkyard Dog FPR 1/500:
This is a special one. This is a First Production Run 1/500 Junkyard Dog. I purchased this off a reputable dealer (can provide original listing if requested) about a month back. It was listed as like new, however the blade appears to have some light pitting on the presentation side. Although stiff in action, it is a great flipper and can easily be flipped with no wrist action. I have kept it oiled and cared for it well, and I don't believe it should be an issue with performance so long as it is given ample attention. I tried to get a decent picture of the pitting, but it is very minute and hard to pick up with a camera. I can attempt to take a picture of it if requested. I never carried or used it. I am asking $165 for this one.

William Henry E6:
I am the first owner of this knife. I carried it a few times in the pocket with loose change and whatnot, but the anodizing/coating has held up perfectly. There are no chips or visible damage to the coating on the blade. It has been stropped once by me, and otherwise never sharpened. Lockup is perfect and it's light as a feather. I really liked this blade, as it was a perfect solution for short pants during this hot summer. I would like to get $old.​

I think oregonknifenerd is correct. On the le versions the Numbers are chronological but not on the first prod I have seen.

I do not have a source but I have noticed this om many le and first production knives that I have handled. Check out bm forums, they will confirm this.
 
I may be able to help with this, I did some research back in January when I found a '1 of 500' small JYD at a local gunshow. There is a photograph of the one I found on my thread, 'Went to a Gunshow today...' it has a Born On Date of Jan. 07, which means it was manufactured slightly earlier than yours, Justin - but - both of ours have a unique feature (other than minor rust pitting that mine had!) that indicate they were very early in the production cycle.

The pocket clips have the engraving 'Remove Before Flight' and based on what I've dug up on old Bladeforum postings this engraving only appeared on some of the very first of the JYD's. It is gone by the end of mid Feb. on the small JYD's...
