I figure it is a 50/50 shot as to where these will go. Handmade Tabor and Lightfoot and Super Beast and a prod. EKI Super 8 BT.

First up is a Super 8 BT coated. Box and paper work included. Lock up is superb. Small smear on the coating done via the factory at the tip. Came that way. Sharpened to a razor edge not really used at all nor carried. 180

Raleigh Tabor large folder. Machined liners, all ti liners too. 154CM blade on the large side. Red g10 and lock up is superb. Razor sharp and a big folder. Carried but not used much if at all. Babied really. I think he is concentrating on auto's now. SOLD

Lightfoot Magnum. Old school design from the mid 90's. BG42 blade and used the snot out of it. A bit better than beater grade. Very smooth opening and fairly sharp. Liner moves a tiny bit when you bang it on your finger but can't get it to release with a couple of good whacks on the side of my knuckle. I would not be afraid to carry and use it as is by any means. Bolsters are ti, liners are ti and the knife is in fairly good cond as in no major scratches. Really is a good knife for edc and not having to worry about using it. 275(firm)

Last a 3 Sisters Forge Super Beast. Again a quality user grade folder. Think BUCK 110 on steroids as in about the same size and shape just made better!. 154CM blade, and sharp as heck. Lock up superb. Dr. Jim doesn't make these anymore either so it is a rare item. Try to find one for sale. SOLD. SPF

I take pp and these prices are net to me. Shipping is 10 bucks a knife USPS PM with insurance on my end. keepem sharp and thanks

PS I don't take the best photos but the knives are as stated.

I AM LOOKING FOR A CQC7A PLAIN EDGE IN MINT CONDITION THAT I WOULD TRADE THE CQC13 FOR.

Hot damn, a Super Beast! Those are as rare as...you know what.

Is that a factory recurve, or the effect of sharpening the belly preferentially?
 
The Super B has the blade shape like that cause the original owner ordered it with a slight recurve. He worked construction and used it in his trade and wanted the blade to be shaped like that. Might be exacerbated a bit from me sharpening it but it isn't that bad and it does lend itself to a good bite to what you are cutting.

The Tabor is all ti liners just under .125" and the lock side is tapered at the lockup for ease of closing. Slight serrations cut into it there for thumb purchase. Back spacer is black phenolic I do believe and is seamless with the liners. Blade is about 4.25" long and the handle is about 5" by .5" thick maybe a bit less. Smooth g10 too so it slides in and out of the pocket easily. Clip I think it polished ti. This is an absolute bargain of a knife out of all them listed and I have said this before if it doesn't sell GOOD! I would much rather sell the EKI and the Lightfoot that the Tabor or Super B. They are indeed that good, not that the other two aren't mind you, but you just can't find these other 2 anywhere. keepem sharp and thanks
 
To all that have been trying to mssg. me, my in box was full, my bad, I have cleared it out now so you can mssg. me. The Tabor is sold, the Super Beast is SPF. I am heading to our cottage/camp this p.m. and will check back before I leave. Otherwise I may not be able to respond until Sun p.m. The Tabor is being shipped today. keepem sharp and thanks
