CPM 535VN Tanto blade with black canvas micarta. Great condition. I am the second owner, and neither I nor the previous owner ever used or sharpened it (although I believe that the first owner stated it had been stropped when first purchased). Carried a few times. I disassembled the knife to clean and lubricate it and install a new lanyard/bead. Great action…it can be thumb-flicked, but locks up solidly.

There is a minor scratch/knick on the clip side in the vicinity of the “Made” engraving at the very edge of the handle…tough to capture on film as it is so small and only visible in the right light, but can barely be seen in the photo of the knife resting atop a mortar.

Comes with all original materials, a PVC patch, and an extra lanyard/bead. Great little knife…I just don’t see it finding a place in my EDC rotation. Reluctantly selling.

$345

I will entertain reasonable offers, but will disregard low-balls. No trades at this time, please.

All sales are via PayPal F&F, although I will accept G&S if the buyer pays the associated fees and sends the transaction without notes. Shipping by Priority Mail to US addresses only.

First “I’ll take it” with prompt message communication gets it, but I reserve the right to sell/not sell to anyone.

P.S. It has been brought to my attention below that this knife may have been a "user," and that there are some flaws I didn't notice: maybe a minuscule chip at the very tip of the blade, some scratches on the pivot screw. And I've been told that the thumb studs are aftermarket versions. So, the price has been GREATLY reduced to reflect those flaws. My loss is your gain.

Definitely aftermarket studs. Tip looks to be chipped off at the very end as well, and pivot screw looks a little chewed up. A little hard to believe it wasn't used fairly heavily.

Well, I guess it's possible I was lied to. Couple of scratches on the pivot for sure, but I think some of what you are seeing is dust. As to the tip...just looked at it with my reading glasses, and I STILL can't see anything wrong, but I will take your word for it. Believe me, I don't need the $$$ that badly to misrepresent a sale here. I bought the knife, stuck it in my pocket a couple of times, and decided it wasn't for me. I'll edit the listing to reflect what you are telling me. And if no one wants it at the new price, I'll use it to cut open envelopes at my desk.

Thanks for your input.

I could certainly be wrong on that and apologize if I am. When I zoomed in it looked to me that the very end of the tip was chipped. No doubt the knife is legit, and a great price! Just unfortunately might not be eligible for a spa treat with the aftermarket studs.
