Hey BF.
I've been loving my new CQC12 from The Sun/Tom Krein, but I'm finding it a little 'big and scary' for carrying comfortably. There was about $200 put into this knife in addition to the cost of the bare CQC12. In terms of condition, the knife has been waved maybe 4 times, it cut a few pieces of paper, and pruned a few dead flowers (thanks, Dad!)
The CQC12 was reground with no serrations and a swedge by Krein, and The Sun stonewashed the blade, polished the hardware, did a glow backspacer and a silver twill scale. It also comes with the original scale.
To clear up confusion, this knife is plain edged in its current state. It has been reground by Tom Krein and the serrations were removed. Please refer to the second set of pictures for the blade grind
Here are some pics pre-regrind:
And post-regrind, with the original scale:
I've just caught the flipper bug, so let me know what you've got! I'm not looking to add much cash. I have no idea what I want....IKBS maybe? I love RJ Martin designs, Todd Begg (I can dream, right?), XM18s, Les Voorhies, Galyean Pros (Turbulence!) , etc. Any flippers, just let me know.
