Up for sale is my boos blades smoke first run in blue (11/100) for $205.27 SOLD (pp g&s, usps priority shipped tomorrow, CONUS only). I'm selling this now to chase another piece, but I absolutely love this knife and I have one pre-ordered in a different color (the arctic blue pre-order is already sold out..)
Note there are a couple of scratches by the bottom screw on the show side (didn't do a great job capturing the second scratch, but here are some red circles. https://i.imgur.com/4POdqaM.jpg). Lock up is solid, no blade play, centered. I’ve cleaned and oiled the knife and the action is great with a medium detent, which is perfect for a front flipper imo. Never carried, peeled one apple, cut some paper, flipped open and closed a lot from my couch only.

NOTE: this is something I discovered during disassembly, and I imagine this is the case for all of the first run. This is more of a review type comment about how it came from the factory, which people don’t usually share on sales posts, but i hate surprises. There is some of the bad type of locktite on the lower screws that go through the stand offs that go through the back spacer. Those standoffs also happen to be free spinning. I was able to disassemble and reassemble, but the screws are pretty hard to work, and I warped my $3 t6 bit in the process. I decided I didn’t want to mess with them again until I got better tools and until I actually needed to disassemble again, which never came up. The pivot screw is fine, which is the important one! easy to remove and/or adjust the tension.
