Up for grabs this weekend is a couple BM bali's.
#1 is a BM35 with stainless steel handles, mirror polished 3 inch weehawk blade. Butterfly tang stamp (not etched). Custom quick draw leather sheath is custom one-of-a-kind from Gary Graley, and included with this purchase. Little leather latch guard has been put in place as well to keep the blade from contacting the latch during manipulation. Knife is lightly flipped with little to no wear. Sheath is near mint as well. $sold to Jadis of Seattle Washington! shipped conus.
#2 is a BM35spl bladeforums knife with the handles powdercoated black. Latch is powder coated as well but not on the knife. As far as I know, this is one-of-a-kind. Small scuff near latch screw, but otherwise mint. box, paperwork, and sheath included. $sold shipped conus. pics in second post below.

Mr. tripletrash, thank you Sir, they are nice indeed... Not quite Fred Perrin Custom, but hey, what do you expect for a production bali? :confused: :D basically, the sheath maker, Gary, took a piece of leather just big enough to fit snug inside the channel of the safe handle. He then placed it just under the latch in the channel. When positioned just right, the latch will not be able to flip down into the path of the blade, but still moves freely everywhere else. And no, the blade does not touch the leather on this profile. see pic below, hope it helps.

Hey, buddy! I don't need you to be telling me what neat-o sheaths and stuff I need.!!:D

I've only been culling my zamack stuff. So I can get down to serious users. That also means serious user sheaths/ setups. I'm still allowed that.;)

Got another sheath you want to get rid of? :cool:

Braundc: I can see the latch isn't on the 35spl, may I ask why it isn't on the knife?

yes Sir, I removed the latch when I realized the powder coating would be scratched off where it latches. Like on BM's blk bali's. It wears even, and doesnt look too bad, but I am a collector and not a user, so I opted to just leave it off. Besides, I like latchless anyway. None-the-less, the latch, hardware, BM blue box, and all paperwork are included in this sale. BTW, the latch is powder coated as well. Funny enough, the action on this thing is now smooth as butter. thanks for your interest.
