Hi everyone. I'm trying to switch up the collection a bit so here are some knives up for trade. I'll be here to answer any questions you might have. I can give more details, specs, and pictures if you ask. If you're interested, feel free to start a conversation or email me at kenleung1995 at hotmail dot com. I also check my threads fairly often so I'll see your posts. If you just want a straightforward sale, let me know and we can have something worked out. Thanks for taking a looking.

For trades, I'm looking for: Jon Grahams, Yunas, Marlowes, DireWares, GTC's, Southards, TuffKnives, Sharknivcos, Rocksteads, Black Snow Customs, Phantom Steelworks, Kirby Lamberts, Burkes, Ochs, Blackwoods, Jason Clarks, Hobacks, a Todd Begg Beggatti, Rassentis, Demkos, some Shirogorovs, Grimsmos, Marfione MSG-3, DOC, ZT 0454, and maybe a custom Emerson or Strider but if you have other offers, I'm happy to hear them. Cash can be added either way.

4. Curtiss Knives BMF - brand new - Traded
Compound grind recurve blade
2-tone blade, polished stonewash flats with working finish grinds
Intricately machined ti frame
Has plenty of grip but won't chew up your pocket or your hand
Made to fit nicely in hand
Runs glass smooth action on bearings and locks up solid with no play
The blade only slightly favors the show side but the grind is a bit asymmetrical so it looks more off than it actually is
Not yet broken in so it has a bit of lockstick

5. TuffKnives customized Sniper Bladeworks LPC - near mint
Blade measures 4" from the end of the handle
Contoured and sculpted slab of carbon fiber for the presentation side
Lockside is tumbled ti
Geoff put the swedge and thumb indent on the blade and worked on the carbon fiber
Extremely smooth action even with a tight pivot
Solid lockup with no play in any direction, and perfect centering
Fits very nicely in hand
You can use the little tab in the last picture as a flipper and it works fairly well

6. Todd Begg Designs Field Grade Bodega - near mint
Black G-10 version
Working finish blade and ti
Very light wear on the front side of the pivot and on the clip
Typical perfect Begg fit and finish
Lockup is about as solid as it gets on a folder
Centering looks to be dead on
Runs glass smooth on ceramic IKBS
