Bump! Scored a S90v Yojimbo, so I'm not really looking for one of those anymore.

All sold or relisted.

I got a grail of mine! A S90V x CF Yojimbo II! I know that’s not much of a grail to most, given that it’s still available for purchase and also only $200, but STILL I LOVE IT and I have to clear some space and get rid of some now-redundant knives. Actually, most of my knives. If everything sells, I’ll have… three. A 4” Hogue EX-01 Tanto, the aforementioned Yojimbo, and the Cold Steel Eland that left a scar on my thumb.

Of course, we all know how long that will last.

All relisted knives have been discounted.

The terms of sale:
  • Please, only reasonable offers. Lowball offers or “how low will you go” will likely be ignored.
  • All prices include USPS priority 2-day shipping with tracking. I ship quickly and package things well. I’m just as - if not more - impatient and picky as you are.
  • I do not accept personal checks or money orders. Paypal only, please.
  • US only, please. Please make sure your purchase conforms to your local laws. 18 and older only.
  • The first "I'll take it" followed by an email/PM gets it. If there isn't a post saying "I'll take it", the item is still available unless otherwise noted, so go ahead and send me an email/PM. Emails are far and away the most preferred method of communication. If you don't post in the thread, you don't get it. Simple as that.

For the sake of bandwidth and thread size, I have 1-2 pictures per knife and links to photobucket albums for each knife with more pictures, including centering and lockup shots.

TRADES:
- Not interested in trades at this time.

As always, no deal is done until you are happy. I do my best to describe everything accurately, but if you find you disagree, we’ll work something out.

Boker Decade Edition Mini Vanquish CF / Ti / VG-10 - $95 net / $98.33 goods SOLD

Full album HERE

Literally BNIB. The brandest and newest. Centered, beautiful finish and attention to detail, great pivot action right out of the box - just a bit small for me, and I also just got that Yojimbo so I have my smaller wharncliffe / sheepsfoot needs covered. Comes with the box, tool, and papers. Heck, I only broke the seal so I could inspect it and take pictures. The polish on the blade made it tricky to photograph, but I did my best.

Benchmade Bedlam Black 860BK - $140 net / $144.9 goods SOLD

Full album HERE

Carried and used lightly by the previous owner. The tip is slightly blunted, but it’s centered with good lockup and wonderful pivot action. The box is not in great shape - nor do I think it’s the original box - so the price reflects the state of the tip and the box. Comes with bag and axis card all the same, and is a great grab at this price.

Spyderco Rock Lobster - $145 net / $150.08 goods SOLD

Full album HERE

Carried and used by the previous owner - this was another attempt to scratch that wharncliffe itch, but I should let someone else take this home and carry / love / appreciate it while I go around and cut everything that could possibly need cutting with my new Yojimbo. It’s got great action, centering, and lockup, with some signs of use and carry on the blade and clip. No box or papers, so the price reflects that and its status as a used knife. Full disclosure: There was some oxidation near the pivot that I cleaned off. Luckily, VG-10 doesn’t oxidize easily and it just wiped right off.

Benchmade 757BK Vicar - $190 net / $196.65 goods

Full album HERE

This thing is unlike anything I’ve ever seen from Benchmade. Not only is it a big, confidence-inspiring motherF—— of a blade, but it’s a stout linerlock with stonewashed and thick anodized liners. The grind on the blade is beautiful and the fuller really ties it all together. Carried and used one day to see if it was going to be a keeper - it tried its very best to unseat my 4” Hogue EX-01 Tanto, but that Hogue is my soul blade. No signs of carry or use except for a small scuff on the blade coating that would wipe off - but I left it there to show that it is indeed used. Centered, rock-solid, with box, papers, and baggie, and really great super smooth pivot action! I love this thing, but I don’t need two 4” tanto folders. I mean seriously. This also strongly reminds me of the Spyderco Vallotton, in a lot of ways (big, thick linerlock with superstupidsmooth pivot and great attention to detail)



Benchmade Nakamura S90v 484-1 First Production Run MIB - $195 net / $201.83 goods SOLD

Full album HERE

Brand new - really brand new, like, mint - in box. I almost went on to describe how pretty the knife is, but the pictures do a pretty good job of showing that off. With super smooth pivot action, flawless lockup, and perfect centering, this is probably the most ideal way to get this knife. Not only is it way cheaper than anywhere else, but the condition and mechanical function is perfect.

Benchmade 771BC1 Boron Carbide coated blade - $170 net / $175.95 goods

Full album HERE

In unused and like new condition aside from some handling marks. This is one of the rarest knives I’ve ever held, with the long-discontinued highly-sought-after basically-scratch-proof black Boron Carbide coating on the blade and a beautiful white aluminum handle. It’s light, smooth, solid, wear-resistant, and rarer than rare. As with a few other knives in this listing, I haven’t seen one of these pop up in ages and ages, and, given that they were discontinued close to a decade ago, it’s unlikely one will pop up again anytime soon. I think the last one that sold here was used and was listed for more, as well.



Zero Tolerance 0350 Brown Aluminum MIB $175 net / $181.13 goods

Full album HERE

A real rarity these days - most of these have ended up as dedicated users or have found their way into permanent collections, but this one is safe from me because I still can’t get over recurves or assist mechanisms. Aside from a small mark on the clip side, this is factory fresh with snappy assisted opening, playless lockup, and a centered blade when closed. These have been discontinued for years, and I haven’t seen one on these forums in some time now…



Spyderco Lum Chinese Pink NIB - $100 net / $103.5 goods SOLD

Full album HERE

Brand new in box, perfectly centered with early lockup and great pivot smoothness. Really nice color and ergonomics, and a near-polished blade finish that is really difficult to photograph. They really outdid themselves with this one - the high hollow grind combined with VG-10 steel and the great grip make this one of the best cutting tools out there. This is the 3.75” version, at the lowest price I’ve seen it so far.

Spyderco Sage 3 CF BNIB - $95 net / $98.33 goods

Full album here

Brand new in box with perfect centering and lockup. I wish more knives used the bolt-action lock, or had visually interesting carbon fiber like this. Falls freely with the lock disengaged, nice smooth action, perfect little cutter.



Spyderco Blue Nishijin Damascus Stretch - $175 net / $181.13 goods

Full album HERE

Lightly carried and used for one day when I was feeling fancy, with almost no visible signs of it aside from a few love lines on the presentation side of the blade. Comes with box and papers, locks up solidly, and is centered! Also, that handle is a thing a beauty, which is also why I can’t bring myself to carry it again.





Spyderco Southard BNIB - $175 net / $181.13 goods SOLD

Full album HERE

Brand new in a slightly damaged box (some tape took most of the label with it) - Perfect all around, with flawless flipping action, centering, and lockup. Really really nice. Best Southard I’ve held.

Add-on knives! These are not available individually because the shipping costs make it kind of a huge loss. Buy two or more, or in combination with any of the other knives I have for sale! If you would like one by itself, please add $5.25 to cover shipping.

Ganzo G720-O - $18 net / $18.63 goods SOLD

Full album HERE

This is an odd one, but a fun one! It’s like an axis lock Lionsteel SR1. Orange G10 on both sides, orange backspacer, steel liners, 440C (Similar to 9Cr18MoV) blade. The action and lockup are perfect, as is the centering. This has been carried and used some, but is still basically factory sharp (only used it on tape) and has a little bit of dirt on the presentation side of the G10. This comes with the box, inner box, bag, and plastic bag. Really quite a package.

Lansky Willumsen Responder X-9 - $20 net / $20.7 goods SOLD

Full album HERE

The best way I could describe this is probably “the best work knife I never really used.” It’s a gorgeous knife (though some would disagree) with wrist-free flipping action, perfect centering and lockup, and 12c27 steel! That’s pretty damned good for the price when it’s new, but this is basically new and is 33% off because I have carried it and it doesn’t have the original plastic hang packaging. I may have cut some tape with it at some point, but this knife is basically new and so nice for the money that it’s really absurd.

United Cutlery Willumsen Urban Tac Blondie - $15 net / 15.53 goods SOLD

Full album HERE

This is the only United Cutlery knife I’ve held that wasn’t trash. In fact, this is one of the best knives I’ve gotten for the money to date. Carried and used, sharpened and stropped, this monster is still one of my favorite cheaper knives of all time. The blade is 440C (Similar to 9Cr18MoV), the action is stellar, it makes a really great KA-CHUNK when you open it, the lockup is perfect, and it’s dead centered. Comes with a box and certificate of authenticity (just in case you’re worried about it being a genuine United Cutlery knife).

Make no mistake, this thing is big.
And fun.

Spyderco Byrd Cara Cara Rescue Plain Edge - $25 net / $25.88 goods SOLD

Full album HERE

This one is a bit pricier because it’s basically impossible to find and I’m in no rush to sell it. A straight 4” blade with a hollow-ground wharncliffe profile, well-centered and locks up without play (which is a surprise for a budget-line lockback), GREAT ergos and still has the factory edge (which has been stropped). This knife has been carried and used, but not much as I often favored my 4” Hogue Aluminum Tanto for my work folder. No box or papers - just the knife, rarer than rare as it currently is and will only become more so since it has been discontinued for many years. I actually had to order this from England because all state-side sellers were sold out, and I havent seen one on eBay in ages (although I haven’t looked since I ordered this one).

SOG Access Card 2.0 - $35 net / $36.23 goods

Full album HERE

No box, no papers, carried and used by someone other than myself. I picked it up off eBay and haven’t carried it. I was going to send it off to SOG to have the blade replaced or worked on, but dicked around for a while and it just sat on my counter. It’s really very nice, with a VG-10 blade, smooth pivot action, centered, absurdly slim and light, good lockup (not perfect, but really close), and the lock is very easy to manipulate. I’ve priced it at 1/2 of retail to account for the unknown history and the tip having been sharpened in a way that makes it sweep up slightly instead of being a straight edge. Send this off to SOG and you’ll have a brand new really great knife for super cheap.



Cold Steel Kudu w/ Brass thumbstud - $10 net / $10.35 goods

Full album HERE

Uncarried and unused as far as I can remember. I got this the same day I got my Eland, and I like the Eland more because it almost took my thumb off one morning. I made a whole post about it and everything. Good times. Anyway, the thumbstud really makes this a great knife to carry and use, as you can fully operate it with one hand! The steel and lockup are great, it’s centered, and even comes with a box! I’ll also include the baggie and tool for the thumbstud (which cost more than the knife…)
