Two of my favorite Emerson models (I've had well over a hundred Emersons), broken in and loved, but functionally perfect. Solid lockup with lots of life left in them. Well centered. Both have super smooth action, like only a broken in BT finish Emerson can be. Blades show these have been well loved but never abused. I have a Wicked Edge Gen3 and will gladly put a screaming edge on either should the buyer request it (no charge). Not looking for trades at this time; shipping is via USPS Priority with tracking & is included in price - CONUS sales only via Paypal "goods".

1. 2005 CQC-7B BTS
This is an excellent example of the classic chisel tanto Emerson 7, in black coated partial serrated. All titanium liner and backspacer construction (they literally don't make 'em like this anymore), old school G10 scales, narrow slot domed pivot bolt - this is the configuration I love best in a seven. This one has served me well, but I now only use my A-blade year 2000 version. Asking $135 for this vintage user, mainly due to my preference for the all-titanium versions.

2. CQC-13BT
This is a model it took me a long time to get around to trying - big mistake. The 13 is to me now the quintessential Emerson - uncompromisingly tremendous grip, big no-apologies bowie blade - I now am a devoted 13 LOVER (my 2005 13BTS is my favorite production Emerson). This late model undated standoff version is a tremendous user. Smooth as butter action, excellent lockup and centering - just a great knife that is ready for duty. Bonus: this one is drilled and tapped for left hand carry. Sold
