*** PLEASE SEE POSTS A FEW BELOW THIS ONE FOR PICS AS I FINALLY FIGURED OUT HOW TO ADD THEM THE EASY WAY. ***
I will only communicate through DM/PM here on the forum... I will not respond to emails. Any questions, please free to ask.
I am the original owner of all these knives except the Grimsmo Norseman. The ZT and Kershaws are brand new and have not been carried or used in any capacity, so they all have their sharp factory edges. They each come in their original marked manufacturer boxes. The Grimsmo Norseman was purchased from a well-known knife purveyor and advertised in "Excellent Condition," which it definitely is. I can't say it was never used, but it looks to be in like/near new condition, and the edge appears to be entirely untouched and original... it is scary sharp. Each knife listed here has solid lockup, no play in any direction, excellent centering, and smooth action.
PAYMENT AND SHIPPING: I will accept Zelle or PayPal G&S (preferred, and I cover fees). For those with low feedback count or new accounts, payment will by Zelle or PPFF... no exceptions. I will ship, at my expense, from my home in San Antonio, Texas, via USPS Priority Mail Flat Rate. I will automatically include Signature Confimation for the Norseman and ZT, unless the buyer declines. If you want Signature Confirmation on the Kershaws, add $5 to the price. I will not ship to Mexico, Canada, or any location overseas. Shipping will occur NEXT BUSINESS DAY. Reminder, Monday the 16th is a federal holiday, so shipping will likely take place as early as Tuesday the 17th.
Please check my feedback: I'm a long-standing member with 100% positive feedback for both buying and selling.
NOTE: If claiming a knife below in the comments, please be specific on which one. Follow-up with me by sending an immediate DM/PM. I will discount for multiples.
TRADES: No trades on these, thanks.
PRICES AND PICS: Prices are updated and now firm, thanks.
- ***WITHDRAWN*** - EARLY GRIMSMO NORSEMAN #283 - A little piece of Grimsmo "Knifemaking Tuesdays" history, this Norseman was finished August 10th, 2014, when John and Erik were still making knives out of John's house garage, and on his original PCNC 1100 Tormach CNC. It is stunning and action is typical Grimsmo drop-shut, guillotine perfection. John did all the work on this knife except the flame anodizing and sharpening, which Erik did beautifully. The blade is clearly engraved "283". Inside one scale is engraved "Norseman July 2014 V4.0", and on the other inside scale is engraved the large Grimsmo helmet logo. It comes with the original linen cloth drawstring bag it was shipped in, to include the original COA/Birth Certificate/Businesscard, and two Grimsmo decals that it came with, and even comes with the plastic mylar ziplock bag with Erik's handwriting on it that everything fit in. FYI, this was before John was including his clamshell cases with all his knives. This is my third early Norseman that John made while still in his home shop, and the last one to leave my collection. This Norseman could justifiably be listed in the "Custom Knives" section, and I'd confidently say it's in 99.99% mint condition, with only one very small spot of anodizing discoloration on the lockbar (see pics). When I ship it, the Norseman will be in an EBossHoss' skull-patterned Bill's Custom Case for added protection.
- ***SOLD*** - ZT 0203CF - Brand-spanking-new and minty-fresh, this is the new ZT just released on January 19th as a "Factory Special Series" (aka, Sprint Run) and only about 500-600 were made. I bought it with some reward points (effectively, a $50 gift card) I had with a well-known authorized dealer, so I got it for $310 shipped.... that's exactly what I want out of it, and I'll eat the shipping and PP fees. They are $360 MAP-priced from ZT and a few dealers may have a few left, but mostly out of stock at this point. It comes in it's original box with ZT/KAI scanable info tag. I got it in the mail, opened it up, and just put it back in the box. ZT hit it out of the park, but not quite my style. Reminds me of early ZTs... big, beefy, and solid. Truth be told, it was a whim purchase as I hadn't bought a new ZT since I bought a ZT0200 in 2007. Just wanted to see it in person. It has a super-sharp M390 blade with a Working Finish and 3D-machined and contoured carbon fiber scales. It also has ZT's new Duralock system, which is completely solid/robust, and the knife feels great in hand.
- ***WITHDRAWN*** - KERSHAW IRIDIUM TOPO (14C28N steel) - The Kershaw Iridium Topo was a limited exclusive to the KAI/Kershaw website offered for about a month in the Spring of 2024. The grooved milling on the aluminum topographic handles is a cool and unique feature among other topo-themed knives. Mint and unused, and comes in original box as received from KAI.
- ***WITHDRAWN*** - KERSHAW IRIDIUM DESSERT WARRIOR (D2 steel) - The Dessert Warrior speaks for itself as a BladeHQ exclusive. Mint and unused, and comes in original box as received from BladeHQ.
Thanks for looking, and have a great holiday weekend, and I apologize for the minor dust, fingerprints, and reflections in these pics. BTW, I still have one more automatic for sale for a great price in the Automatic Knives sales thread.
