I have a BM 551 up for trade, has a plain edge with black handle and satin finished 440C blade, and of course, the AXIS-lock.

Condition is very good or excellent, it's been carried a bit and used, and resharpened on a Sharpmaker. There are scuff marks on the blade, and some wear on the clip, but these are only cosmetic blemishes. It has most of its life left, as it hasn't been used very much at all. It has bronze washers, and the action is silky smooth.

I'm looking for a smaller knife that'll be more carryable (it's going to be a gift for a friend), with a fairly stain resistant steel, nothing worse than AUS-8 however. Condition must be excellent to NIB. Looking for something like a SS Dragonfly, something that has great cutting efficiency in a small but sturdy package.

Will however consider other, larger knives as well.

I have cash (payable via PayPal) to adjust for any trades that might overlap in price.

Please mail me at slamhound at gmail dot com for futher details.
 
Thanks for the offers, but not quite what I'm looking for at the moment.

I should add that I'm only interested in plain edged blades. Thanks.
 
Ive got a CS recon 1 tanto in 440A (very stain resistant) stainless finishPE
A CRKT M16 Zytel (used)PE
A Gerber Ar 3.00 without clip CE
A Kershaw scallion good condition PE with spring lock removed. otherwise good condition (I didnt see the point in locking down the assist open.)


combo deal or maybe all of the above for the grippy? They just kind of sit around waiting to trade for stuff so.... why not ya know!

Let me know if your interested or if you want more detail on the knives. ;)
 
Thanks, but as stated, nothing that's not plain edge, nothing worse than AUS-8. Looking for a knife of equal value and quality.

Would also appreciate it if trade offers were sent to the given e-mail address, so I don't keep bumping the thread up.
