After 2 years of wanting to do this I have finally worked up the courage to try and reduce my collection to a small user base. The courage may not last.
Please note both these knives are unused and unsharpened but they both have some stains from storage, it is not rust or pitting but just discolored spots and a few patches. So none of these knives should be considered in mint condition. I have handled all of them on multiple occasions to take pictures of my collection. They have all been cleaned multiple times, possibly been in and out of their sheaths multiple times and and have all been stored with a light coat of lubricant. So even if they are unused and unsharpened, there might be some fine cosmetic scratches or marks to be found. For those knives with obvious marks I will indicate them specifically and post pictures. To picture scratches I use macro mode on the camera and angle it to show the scratches clearly - generally they are much more visible in the pictures than in reality where they are sometimes not obviously visible.
If you have any concerns or questions about. the condition of a knife please ask them before purchase and I will gladly provide more information and detailed pictures and/or video if appropriate.

1 - Cold Steel Trailmaster, Carbon V, USA made with original box, Kydex sheath, high quality leather sheath
Condition: Unused, unsharpened, not-mint, some discoloration from storage and a few very fine scratches from the sheath and cleaning.
Sheath: Original high quality leather sheath + Kydex sheath (I think this was original also but I am not 100% sure).
I have owned a few Trailmasters and this is by far the nicest one I have owned. It has a smaller notch by the ricasso and the guard seems to be a little rounded on the corners.
