There are scammers who search sales forums for words like "I'll take it", and then send money requests pretending to be the seller. So here is the process to buy from me in the exchange, which gives these low lifes zero opportunities to take your money:
Post "I'll take it" in the thread (and specify which item if there are more than one).
Send me the email address you want me to invoice in private. Direct Message, email, text, is fine. Don't post it in the thread.
After I send the invoice, I will tag you in the thread to notify of the invoice number and time stamp. At that point you may consider it safe to make payment.
Simple. Easy. No extra work on your part, just some sharp steel coming your way to make life a little easier and a little more joyful.

My email address is in my forum signature at the bottom of my posts.
You can see it on mobile devices if you turn your phone sideways (i.e. landscape mode). Any email you receive from an address other than that is not from me.
Payment is by itemized PayPal invoice (which you can also pay with a credit card if you don't have PayPal).
I send "Good & Services" invoices that include buyer protection.
All prices listed in my sales posts are in USD and include Canada Post expedited shipping with tracking and insurance to anywhere in North America.
Combined shipping saves $15 per additional item.
I am willing to ship internationally at buyer's expense and liability. It is an estimated $30-60 more to ship to most international locations.

I have a Cold Steel Spartan, and two Resilience lightweights to offer today. But I have made some big changes to them. All three have had their inner monsters unleashed through stock removal. But not hideous abominations, these are ferocious and beautiful, ready to slash anything to shreds while being a joy to hold and to behold.
The Spartan, heavily inspired by the Charlie Mike Fresno Felon mod, is $XXX, and the Resiliences, which I call Resilitary, due to their similar blade profile to the Spyderco Military are $XXX each. The Spartan is thinner behind the edge, has a straight spine and more rounded corners on the thumb plate, making it even easier and more dependable as a pocket opener. If desired, I will include a snake knot paracord fob of your choice from the colors pictured at no extra expense, to give a little something more to grip onto when deploying from the pocket. All have crowned spines for added comfort and class, and the Spydercos have detent ramps for safer closing. I'll throw in a fob for those as well, and on all three knives I will flip the clip over to whichever position you prefer.
For those hesitant about serrations, I used to be as well, but I took it upon myself to learn how to make my own style, largely inspired by Tom Veff's serrations. My serrations not only perform amazingly well, but are also very easy to sharpen. I proved both of these claims on video, if you care to take a look, using my own Resilitary EDC knife (not one of these two being offered today, but the similarly modded).
Oh yeah? Prove it!
The Spartan has right handed serrations. The Resilitaries have left handed serrations, as they both started life as combo edge from the factory, and Spyderco ground those serrations on the left side. However, all three knives cut well regardless of which hand you hold them in. Note that the two Resilitaries offered today are a bit different from each other. One has slightly more "Veffy" serrations angled back more, and the other has more neutrally oriented serrations and is a little thinner behind the edge as well. It also has serrations up closer to the point. Both cut amazingly well.
