If you have any questions about what's listed, just let me know and I'll do my best to help you out. For more details, specs, or pictures, ask and ye shall receive. You can reach me through private message or through my email: kenleung1995 at hotmail dot com. I also check my threads fairly often so I'll see your posts. I can work with you on the price for some of these and I'm open to trades. Prices include all shipping and PayPal fees in the US. I'll be happy to ship international but the buyer will need to assume all risks and help cover the cost of shipping. Thanks for your time.

For trades, I'm looking for: Jon Grahams, Ochs Worx, Yunas, Marlowes, Direwares, GTCs, TuffKnives, Sharknivcos, RJ Martins, Rocksteads, Dalibors, Broadwells, Black Snow Customs, Phantom Steelworks, Jim Burkes, Blackwoods, VanderMeulens, Goodwyns, Rogovets, Jason Clarks, Grimsmos, Brown Knives Servo, Jason Guthries, ZT 0454, CKF Terra, and maybe a custom Emerson or just Striders in general but if you have other offers, I'm happy to hear them. Cash can be added either way.

2. Graham Knives Custom GL Razel - like new - $950 --> Sold
Slightly older version running on phosphor bronze washers
Thinnest blade stock I've seen Jon use
It's paper thin behind the edge and still has Jon's edge so it's a lightsaber, even slices with the razel tip
Blackwashed and Bos heat treated CPM-154CM blade with his signature grind
Show side is lightly textured brown G-10
Lock side has a bronzed working finish
Not 100% broken in so it occasionally has lock stick
Runs smooth and has an impressive action
Centering is perfect and it locks with zero play in any direction
Handle is contoured and very comfortable in hand

Upgraded with a CPM-20CV tanto blade

There is some slight blade play that might go away as the knife breaks in
Blade sits well centered

4. Zieba Knives S3 - near mint - $400 --> Sold
Upgraded version with the fully carved copper skull backspacer
3.4" stonewashed blade in nearly rustproof Nitro-V steel
Contoured frame that's been extensively milled out on the inside, making it lighter than you'd expect
Lightly textured G-10 front scale
Smooth drop-shut action, rock solid lockup, and perfect centering

5. Curtiss Knives Large F3 Wharncliffe - near mint - $600 --> Sold
Slightly older version with a different style CPM-S35VN blade
Jimping on the blade is raised and there are some custom touches near the tip
Both the blade and handle stock seems to be just a bit thinner than the more recent ones and there's a wider chamfer on the edges of the frame so it feels smaller in pocket and less blocky in hand
Acidwashed blade with a stonewashed satin on the flats
Lightly orange-peeled ti frame
Subtly flamed hardware, backspacer, and 2-tone pivot
Action is glass smooth, locks with zero play, and centering is perfect
