I have a Basic 11 with an AZWelke sheath that doesn't get much attention since I acquired a Carothers Light Chopper. It's been logo etched, stripped, convexed and given a random scratch pattern finish (could easily be scotchbrite satined). Has one tiny ding in the edge that I haven't gotten around to sharpening out. I just noticed the logo etch looks fuzzy in the pic I had on my phone, but it actually came out very nice... I'll post a better pic of the logo when I get home from work.

I'm not really looking for anything in particular, but probably not another fixed blade (maybe a Cold Steel 3V Magnum tanto XII plus some cash, I have no use for it but I've always loved the looks especially the tsuba style guard). I like autos, tritium baubles and watches, whittler pattern traditionals, other interesting gadgets/edc stuff. Let me know what you've got, maybe we can work something out. If you've got pics to send, my email is thehomerjaysimpson at Gmail.

What do you have that's "different" laying around? Maybe an MRX chain drive auto, or an old MOD Triton with good tolerances...something that makes you go "Hmm... that's interesting, I need one of those for the collection."

Thanks for all the offers so far, keep em coming ;) I'm not adverse to trading up a bit, if you've got something really cool I can add some cash on my end :)

Forgot to mention, I did sand out the factory grind marks down 800 grit after convexing and mirror polished the spine. The "random scratch pattern" came from a circular sanding motion, I thought it looked pretty cool and hides use marks really well :)

Keep the offers coming, thanks for the ones sent so far.

Offers don't have to be new in box, responsibly used is acceptable. I'd also be interested in some of the older "custom" cold steel folders like the Spectre.

Keep em coming,

It might not be of interest to you, but I'm currently trying to trade my all black Zero Tolerance 0300. It's the one that's discontinued. It's a bit of a user, but in pretty good shape. Probably the most overbuilt folder I've ever used. If you're interested, feel free to message me.
 
Not really looking for another overbuilt ti slab frame lock unless it's something pretty unique, but thanks for the offer.

Keep em coming :)

I'm also really partial to zdp-189 blade steel, and I prefer analog watches on metal bracelets. Willing to trade up or down with cash going either way if you have something interesting.

Thanks for the offers so far, keep em coming :)
