I've been trying to thin out my collection lately so here are some that I'm letting go of. Most are from my personal collection so I should be able to answer any questions you might have about the listing. I can give more details, specs, and pictures if ask. If you're interested, feel free to contact me through private message or email. 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 pay via F&F, assume all risks, and cover the cost of shipping. Thanks for your time.
For trades, I'm looking for: Yunas, DireWares, GTC's, Lee Williams, Southards, Willumsens, Rocksteads, a Todd Begg Bodega, Peter Rassentis, a Zero Tolerance 0454, Medford Infraction, Grimsmo Norseman, and maybe a custom Emerson or Strider but if you have other offers, I'm happy to hear them. I'll trade up or down and cash can be added either way. Worst I can do is pass.
If you are planning to send me an email through the forum, please post on the thread as well to let me know. Some of those are lost in transit and never reach my mailbox.
1. DireWare Solo V5 - brand new - $1200
Polished carbon fiber front slab
Titanium lockside and clip that have been given a rich bronze
Blasted M390 blade with a recurve grind
Blasted backspacer
Dead mint, from-the-maker condition
Smooth action, rock solid lockup, and perfect centering
2. Custom Knife Factory Sablya Relic One-Off - brand new in pouch - $1000
This is a Sablya that CKF set aside specifically to be made into a one-off; it isn't a customized numbered Sablya
An incredible amount of work has been put into this one
"Relic" M390 blade; the more you look at it, the more you see
Carbon fiber inlays
Relic finished handle that transitions into an anodized and tumbled rock texture
Flamed body screws
Fast and responsive action; the blade flies open when you pull back on the flipper
Solid lockup and the blade drops freely
Blade sits dead center
Comes with all the paperwork and the padded pouch
3. Crusader Forge Street Fighter - brand new in box - $1000
Insanely sharp chisel grind tanto that might as well be a zero grind
The blade measures 5" from the pivot
Multi-grind; hollow with a convex grind at the front and a swedge
Milling on the handle
Has Crusader Forge's signature 3D Gun Kote finish on both the handle and blade
Smooth action on GTC bearings and solid lockup
The blade slightly favors the lockside but doesn't touch the handle. It looks like it does but that's just the chisel grind. When you hold it up to the light, you'll see there is a good amount of clearance.
Comes with everything from the maker
4. Crusader Forge Street Fighter - brand new in box - $1000
Chisel grind drop point with a swedge
Phantom finish on the blade with flamed handle slabs
Also has milling on the handle
The blade is dead center on this one
Has a lighter detent than the top one but the blade still flies open
Solid lockup with no play in any direction
Will arrive with all the original packaging and paperwork
5. TuffKnives Tanic - near mint - $1000
Tumbled blade
Bronzed and tumbled handle slabs
Flame anodized hardware, clip, and backspacer; has hints of blue
Orange peel finish on the clip and backspacer
Great smooth action and perfect centering
No side-to-side play but there is a bit of up-and-down play due to it being one of Geoff's earlier Tanics; it doesn't affect the function at all
There is a very small ding on the titanium next to the flipper when it's closed
6. Pohan Leu Hamachi - brand new in pouch - $1100 --> Traded
Timascus bolster with a marble carbon fiber scale and spacer
Sculpted clip made from zirconium
Blue anodized hardware
Thick ti with a working finish on the lockside
Runs smooth on IKBS; has a strong detent so the blade opens instantly when you pull back on the flipper
Zero side-to-side play but there is the tiniest bit of up-and-down if you grab the blade and really force it
Blade is dead center
Has Leu's infamously sharp zero grind
