I'm trying to switch up the collection so here are some knives I'm putting up for trade. I'll be here to answer any questions you might have. If you need more details/specs/pictures, just shoot me a message and I'll have them sent over. If you're interested, feel free to start a conversation or email me at kenleung1995 at hotmail dot com. I try to check my threads fairly often so chances are I'll see your posts as well. If you just want a straightforward sale, let me know and we can have something worked out. Thanks for taking a look.
For trades, I'm looking for: Jon Grahams, Ochs Worx, Yunas, Marlowes, Tashi collabs and customs, GTCs, Sharknivcos, RJ Martins, Dalibors, Broadwells, Black Snow Customs, VanderMeulens, Chris Goodwyns, Rogovets, Mosiers, Guthries, Rotten Designs, ZT 0454, G&G Deadlock, Rockstead Shun, and maybe a custom Emerson or just Striders in general but if you have other offers, I'm happy to hear it. I like seeing what's out there and the worst I can do is pass. Cash can be added either way.
1. Ochs Worx Avant - near mint
Perfectly built Ochs custom
3.25" working finish CPM-S35VN blade with a crowned and polished spine
Has the best layered G-10 scale I've seen, it's hand carved to make the top dark green layer take on an organic line look
Satin liners
Hammered copper backspacer
Copper pivot collars
Sculpted clip, carved and anodized to go with the backspacer
Snappy action, perfect centering, and solid lockup
2. Phantom Steelworks Operator XL - like new
The biggest folder Chris made, not many were made
The blade, frame, clip, and both sides of the pivot have been murdered (textured)
4.5" blade in CPM-3V and with his unique "unearthed" finish
The entire front side and the clip are timascus and the texture makes it really shimmer in the light
Lockside is flamed ti
Inside of the frame is blasted
Has the best action I've felt on a Phantom Steelworks
Snaps open with a nice double-click and locks up tight
Centering is dead on
3. Jeff VanderMeulen Mini Intro - carried
3.25" bowie blade with a hand satin
Blackwashed bolsters and liners
Polished and contoured carbon fiber scales
Sculpted mokuti clip
Has been used so there are some light scratches on the blade
Runs on washers but still flips great
Lockup is rock solid
Centering very slightly favors the front side but it's hard to tell
