Cash is king here, as taxes are coming up and my need for a new car is dire.
The terms of sale:
For the sake of bandwidth and thread size, I have 1-2 pictures per knife and links to photobucket albums for each knife with more pictures, including centering and lockup shots.
TRADES:
While Im not primarily looking for trades, Im interested in:
Specific knives:
- I really like framelocks, even better if they're Ti Framelocks with lockbar inserts.
Anyway, on to the knives:
Benchmade 300SN $90 net / $93.15 goods SOLD
Full album HERE
Like new, no box. Picked this up on the USN forums, had to check one out as I never gave one of these a fair shot. Im glad I didnt spring for a brand new in box one, as its a bit too small for me. Dont get me wrong, it feels great in-hand, I just like larger knives in general. The flipping action is great, and the lockup is rock solid, and its perfectly centered. Really sweet little knife, just too little for me.
Benchmade 581 BNIB $170 net / $175.95 goods
Full album HERE
Literally BNIB. Centered, solid, snappy, mint. Comes with all the goodies - box, axis card, plastic baggie, and microfiber bag. I made a red-eye bid on ebay that I should not have, and am selling this at a loss.
Benchmade / HK Snody 14250 - $150 net / $155.25 goods
Full album HERE
Carried, unused, small scuff on the blade (doesnt even show up in pictures), no box. Just the knife. The knife itself, though, is wonderful. Dead centered, crazy smooth, rock solid lockup, unused and crisp factory edge, and a grind that means business. Great grip, too. The shots I took dont really display the handle texture too well, so I recommend google image searching the model and getting a good look at the handle. I dont want to dirty up this page with stock photos or unauthorized links to them, heh.
Benchmade 915 Triage - $115 net / $119.03 goods
Full album HERE
Like new, no box. Uncarried, unused, just handled. This guy has actually been on my wish list for over a year - as Im always a fan of sheepsfoot designs. This one is CRAZY smooth. So smooth I can hardly believe that the pivot isnt too loose. All the same, it locks up tight and is -dead- centered. Im letting this one go mostly because I really just am not a fan of axis locks at the moment (hence the deluge of Benchmades)
Manix 2 XL S90V / CF BNIB - $240 net / $248.4 goods
Full album HERE
Also picked this one up off of USN. BNIB, perfect lockup and centering, entirely uncarried and unused. Funnily enough, this knife was something I think I made a post about when I was first starting out. I really liked the Manix XL, but also wanted the handle to be CF and to have a slightly more chip-resistant steel And here it is, right as Ive fallen out of love with such lock mechanisms. Anyway, steal of a deal here, better price than this forum has seen in months by over $30, just a markup over the original retail price to cover shipping and also to help make up for the losses Im taking elsewhere.
ZT 0301 w/steel lockbar insert LNIB - $185 net / $191.48 goods SOLD
Full album HERE
Catch and release - I had somehow never handled one of these and had to check one out before they become scarce (especially the lockbar insert model !). Shoots open, locks up like a tank, and its dead centered when closed. The previous owner may have carried and/or used it, but I honestly cant detect any signs of it. Comes with box / papers / dessicant packet.
Leatherman MUT - $105 net / $108.68 goods
Full album HERE
Brand new, no box (was hang packaged) - Comes with everything, and it has never been carried or used.
Spyderco Tuff BNIB CC#102 - $190 net / $196.65 goods SOLD
Full album HERE
Big. Beefy. Solid. Centered. Discontinued. New. Unused.
Also, a bit stiff to open. Comes with box and papers.
Zero Tolerance 0561 w/ lockbar insert, custom hardware, original hardware - $200 net / $207 goods SOLD
Full album HERE
This is the best Zero Tolerance I have ever held.
The pivot action is insane. I have never had a knife this smooth. It locks up like its one solid piece of metal. The custom hardware looks fking amazing in person, and the pictures come close to doing them justice. It flips like I wish all flippers flipped. I wont be too upset if nobody is willing to drop the cash on this one for outright sale, honestly. Im not even sure if I want to sell it, but Im certainly not currently carrying it or using it so I better list it before I get any more attached.
The terms of sale:
- Please, only reasonable offers. I'm already taking a loss on many of these.
- I do not accept personal checks or money orders. Paypal only, please.
- US only, please. Please refer to your local laws. 18 and older only.
- The first "I'll take it" followed by an email/PM gets it. If there isn't a post saying "I'll take it", the item is still available unless otherwise noted, so go ahead and send me an email/PM. Emails are far and away the most preferred method of communication. If you don't post in the thread, you don't get it. Simple as that.
For the sake of bandwidth and thread size, I have 1-2 pictures per knife and links to photobucket albums for each knife with more pictures, including centering and lockup shots.
