Not looking for trades, I have too many knives!
Post "I'll take it" here on the thread for anything you want, in addition to PMing or emailing me through the forum. If you DON'T post and only send a message, and somebody else posts they'll take the same thing before I've gotten your message and officially sold it to you, the person who posted on the thread gets it! Not posting on the thread makes it impossible for either of us to leave feedback for the transaction.
If you want more than one, I'll deduct $15 per knife added given savings in shipping.
Prices include shipping/insurance to anywhere in the US. Payment by paypal (I'll eat the fees) or USPS money order. Additional shipping charges for International, and (of course) only limited shipping insurance available. I WILL NOT lie on a customs form--if you can't legally have something, don't buy it.
Bladeforums is not reliable notifying me of replies or messages--if you don't hear from me immediately don't worry, if you were the first take something then it's yours.
Please carefully inspect knives upon receiving them. I try to be meticulous about finding flaws, but if I miss something, let me know immediately, and we can talk about either an adjustment to the price if you still want it, or a complete refund in addition to me covering the return shipping. My reputation is important to me, and I'll never try to slip anything by you.
Here we go!
Busse KZ2 with BB sheath--Green with Black G10 handle scales. Unused, unsharpened, uncarried, bought at the Blade Show (I've been to too many, can't remember which year this was but it's been several years) and then I walked right over to David Brown's table and picked up the sheath.
Only mark from the sheath is a very feathery-light rub/scratch in the coating close to the tip; I had to play a minute with the camera and lighting to pick it up. Sheath has a drilled hole to line up with the forward lanyard hole on the guard, so you can lash it in for additional security when climbing that mountain. $575. SOLD
BATAC INFI--Desert Olive finish with OD Green G-10 scales--Unused, uncarried (minor marks on sheath are from storage), edge has been evened out and thinned (factory edge was like 50 degrees included at the tip originally). Excellent Okuden kydex sheath currently set up with Blade-Tech IWB Loop (though I can swap that for a Tek-lok if you prefer). Slight coating wear from sheath on one point of the ricasso/guard. $350
Busse Skeleton Key--Marked Busse Custom Shop, Desert Tan finish. Never used or carried, factory edge has been stropped/polished but not modified. Has extremely minor finish flaw at lanyard hole--I say flaw versus "damage" because the thing has never, ever been carried since I received it from Busse, and never had a lanyard. With leather slip. $225 SOLD
