Hi,
I came into possession of this beauty by Allen Elishewitz by multiple piece trade. I am not that familiar with Allen's work, although I'm sure a lot of folks here are.
I'm looking to ID this knife. Lockup is solid and about 30%... Black standoffs. I was told it is 154CM steel, although it is not marked on the blade. Also, could someone please tell me what it should go for (fair price) should I decide to sell it? thanks
The workmanship and action is very beautiful. Scales are beautifully molded CF. Liners are light purple Titanium, as well as pocket clip

I believe it's one of his old "djinn" or "cortex" models. Price is subjective but I believe it would be in the 350$-400$ range. Hope that helps. I'm sure you could email him and ask to be certain.

WHAT IS MY KNIFE / GADGET / SPATULA / TUNING FORK WORTH ?!?!?!?!

In order to curtail potential abuse of membership privileges associated with the forums, questions regarding valuation of knives and collections are limited to those with a membership level which permits selling on this site. Accordingly, registered and basic members may not start or post in threads with such requests whether with the intent to sell or for informational purposes only. This rule applies throughout the site.

In other words, without a paid Gold membership, you don't get to ask about sale values. Too many people abused this question to hint they had a knife for sale, which you need that membership for.

Then you have to change your user id group, per the Service and Support s/f...because we are all seeing you as "Beginner Blue".

Best Regards,
