I have a Bob Terzuola ATCF framelock folder with titanium handle slabs, jigged bone overlays, and a non-reflective CPM 154 fighter grind blade for sale. Bob is one of the true legends of tactical folder makers, and he has built his reputation through the quality of his work. He obviously seeks constant improvement in his pieces, and his latest step forward is offering his tried-and-true models as framelocks. The ATCF is arguably Bob's most popular model, and this particular framelock is nicer than most, featuring jigged bone overlays in a dark reddish amber color.

The ATCF framelock listed here does not appear to have ever been carried, used, or resharpened, and its original edge from Bob is very sharp. There are a few light handling marks on the pocket clip, and the blade has a faint hairline scratch in the beadblast on the logo side. The opening action is very smooth, and the knife opens easily with a good flick of the thumb. I uploaded a video here to demonstrate the action. The lock-up is solid, and the blade centering is near perfect.

For payment on this piece, I can take USPS money orders and PayPal (add 3% in the US to cover most of the fees, 4% outside of the US). I can also take a personal check if I know you. If you are paying by PayPal, the payment has to be sent with a PayPal-confirmed address (including the green "confirmed" marker) listed in the invoice, and I will only ship to that PayPal-confirmed address. I reserve the right to wait for payments to clear before I ship.

I will consider trades (with appropriate cash adjustment) for custom folders and certain custom balis. I am especially interested in the following makers:

JL Williams
Charles Marlowe
Tim Galyean
Deryk Munroe
Jim Smyth
Kit Carson
Jim Burke
Gerry McGinnis
DB Fraley
Bob Lum
Mike Snody
Sal Manaro
Scott Cook
Ernie Emerson
Rick Hinderer
Matt Cucchiara
Todd Begg
Tom Mayo
Neil Blackwood
Ken Onion
Phil Boguszewski
Flavio Ikoma

I may consider trades for other custom folders or balis not listed above. However, I am not interested in serrated blades, production knives, or fixed blades other than those by John Young or Russ Andrews.

Please feel free to contact me with any questions. Thanks for looking!
