CLOSED - REMAINING KNIVES AND SOME NEW ONES RELISTED HERE

First unconditional post, PM or email stating you will take a knife, followed by prompt communication and payment, will get the item. If I don’t hear from you within two hours, or if you don’t pay within 24 hours or let me know when you will be able to make payment, I will let the next person claiming the knife take it. I reserve the right to refuse to sell this item to anyone at my discretion. Prices below include priority shipping with tracking and insurance, and PayPal fees. Money orders are also accepted. Shipping only to USA addresses. If you buy more than one, you can reduce the total by $10 for each additional knife. I will usually be able to ship within two days after I receive payment. I’m not interested in any trades at this point. I will consider offers if items are available after 4 days or 500 views, whichever comes first.

Here are some general disclosures on the various knives for sale:
All knives come with the tube. All lockbacks have some very slight vertical blade play that in my experience, does not affect use. Unless otherwise noted, blades are 1095.

New knives have been carefully handled and in most cases, wiped with a microfiber cloth to remove smudges, although it is possible I missed some. Fit and finish is generally excellent. Some of the GEC knives received new from dealers come with very faint, very small scuffs and/or scratches on the blade and/or bolsters that should be able to be polished or buffed out if you were so inclined. When I felt any anomalies like this were noticeable on a particular knife, I tried to take a close up picture and note it below. In most instances, the close up exaggerates the anomaly and they are not as noticeable in person

Used knives may have been used for opening mail or packages or light food prep, and in a few instances, to make some light wood carving. If they were used with food, they were carefully cleaned, dried and treated with medical grade mineral oil. Some other knives may also have been treated with medical grade mineral oil. Most have been carefully stropped to touch up the edge. Because they have been carried and used to varying degrees, they will have some character in the form of small, light scuffs and/or scratches as indicated in the pictures and/or descriptions below. In many cases, the knives may have only been carried or used a few times and show little to no signs of use. Some used knives will have a light patina from food prep that should be visible in the pictures below. I did not remove the patina but it should be easy to remove with your favorite polish or leave as is to help protect it against rust.

The pictures are not very good but in most cases, these knives are in great, excellent or like new condition. Let me know if you have any questions or would like additional pictures. If you buy a knife and for some reason feel that the description was not adequate, please just let me know and I’ll be happy to work with you to resolve the issue.

15. SOLD///#42 Missouri Trader, Cocobolo - SOLD///$72 - New - It is my understanding that this was part of a very limited run and only a few of these were made. Came from the factory with some minor imperfections. There is some kind of rub mark on the bolster and a faint scratch on the scale. Both of these issues look like they could be buffed out. These pictures also exaggerate what appear to be small grooves on one side. Hard to notice them holding the knife.
