Hi everyone. I'm looking for some new steel so here are some knives up for trade. I'll be here to answer any questions you might have about the listing. I can give more details, specs, and pictures if you ask. If you're interested, feel free to contact me through private message or email. I also check my threads fairly often so I'll see your posts. If you just want a straightforward sale, let me know and I'll have something arranged. Thanks for looking.
For trades, I'm looking for a: Spyderco Mamba, Spyderco Nirvana, Spyderco Magnitude, Striders, BM 610 Ruckus, Serge Panchenko knives, Cold Steel 4-Max, Hinderer XM-24, ZT 0620, Emerson Iron Dragon, CQC-7 Flipper, Emerson Big Bulldog, a Rat Worx, and a Microtech Spartan UT but I'll be happy to hear other offers. Worst I can do is pass and cash can be added either way.
If you are planning to send me an email through the forum, please post on the thread as well to let me know. Some of those are lost in transit and never reach my mailbox.
