755 MPR SOLD
First up is my Benchmade 755 Sibert Mini Pocket Rocket. This is a very cool little chunk of a knife. I was always intrigued with this one and bought it as a work carry, but I always have my CF Seb and something like a Tenacious or RAT for a beater on the job, so this little guy gets no pocket time. M390 steel with the BM toothy factory edge still wicked sharp. First Production 271/1000 stonewashed blade very clean and unscratched. A few snail-trails on the ti from light carry. Loc-tited pivot opens and closes smoothly. Adjustable stop pin. No play either way, wicked solid lockup, and good centering. Knife is in excellent condition. I bought it with two clips and have the spring-style one on it which I much prefer. The second sculpted clip is included. Comes with box, paperwork, and BM bag.
Price was $175.00--dropped to SOLD.

THE 940-1 IS SOLD!
Next up is a Benchmade, 940-1 Osborne in CF. I picked this up BNIB on the big auction site about a year ago. I like this knife a lot, but I also have a 943 S30V blade in a 940-1 CF handle and I freakin' love that knife, so this one gets no pocket time, just gets fondled in front of the TV. The knife is wicked clean, has gorgeous Carbon Fiber, the blade has no play, but free-drops smooth-as-butter opening and closing. The typical BM toothy factory edge in S90V is still quite sharp. Knife has been lightly carried and used but honestly doesn't show it at all, though there is a bit of wear on the tip of the black deep-carry clip I added. The one downside here is that the blade is off center to the clip side. The pictures show it quite clearly, though the blade shape makes it seem worse than it is. Not close to rubbing. I haven't tried to fix it as it never really bothered me--I have a dozen or so BMs and two of my favorites aren't right down the middle. Bag, box, paper included. Price was $220--Dropped to $207.
If you're not hung up on perfect centering, this knife is in excellent condition and would make a great EDC at 60 bucks off Benchmade's MAP pricing with no tax or shipping costs.

DOMINO IS SOLD!
Last up is a Spyderco Domino. I haven't had this one long but am letting it go as I went a little overboard with flippers recently. I got this LNIB from a member here and have carried it a couple times. Not sure if I've actually cut anything with it and it's pretty much still LNIB. Clip looks worn in the pics, but it's just the light and my fingerprints. Knife is a nice push-button flipper and isn't really even broken in yet. Solid, no play, centered, CTS-XHP has nice sharp factory edge. Titanium frame lock with steel lock bar insert. The CF is laminated over G10 and is just like the black Sage 3. Typical great Eric Glesser design and Spyderco quality. If you're a Spydie fan and want to try a flipper, this is the one. It's just too close to the many other Spyders I have and won't get carried. Box and papers included. Price was $160--dropped to $150.
