Time to start clearing out some blades!
These are for sale only, not looking for trades, need to clear some room.
Prices include USPS Priority to USA customers. No International unless we've dealt before and shipping will need to be determined based on location. No 3rd party re-shippers either please.
I will be leaving early Saturday and gone until night, and Monday is a holiday so these would not go out until Tuesday.
Happy to send additional pictures or discuss package prices for multiple purchases but first commitment to buy gets it. If there are specifics you want to know ask ahead of time. Post, PM or email is fine but if you email me please include your BladeForums alias, chad@pirtlemade.com.
Payment via Paypal G&S, Square or Venmo, whatever buyer prefers.
Thanks for looking!
DCPT-5
I carried this a time or two to show it off but never cut with it and it's essentially new, there are no marks. I did switch to the Timascus clip. The detent is not super strong but this knife is so smooth the blade just glides, hands down the smoothest bearing knife I have ever owned or held and I've had just about everything. Pictures don't do it justice no matter who's I've seen, it's a stunner in person.
Edit to add: I also swapped out the fasteners for silver satin when I changed the clip for a more subtle look. The anno'd ones are in the pouch.
$750 Shipped ($700 if you don't want the free WE) ***SOLD***

I carried this knife probably 8-10 times and cut a few things but there's no signs of use or marks I can find. Flips strong and fast and drop shut smooth. The two tone satin and frosted blade finish on these is a beautiful touch.
$455 Shipped ***SOLD***
T14
Also carried, maybe 6-8 times and cut up a box or two. Some very minor shining of the acid washed blade finish but I'm not sure if that's the finish or from the box so I will error on the side of caution. There's also a little dark mark on the show side of the scale that does not show in pictures. It's actually a darker spot from the rest of the finish so I think it was there when new, but I wanted to point it out. Action wise, this thing drops shut smooth and fast and has a great detent, so fires with authority. I don't recall which clip it shipped with but I may have changed it to the blackened one.
$320 Shipped ***SOLD***

Easily the most underrated CKF ever. This knife is very pocket friendly and light for a big blade with an incredibly unique design. The Zirc clip and backspacer look great and the thin full flat ground blade will rival any Spyderco in the slicing department. I carried this one a couple of dozen times and used it for some basic cutting but the facotry edge is still hair popping. No marks or signs of use though aside from some dust. The detent is on the soft side but the blade action is so smooth misfires are not a problem, this one is only bested by the DCPT in the smoothness department.
$285 Shipped ***SOLD***

Another underrated knife from CKF. Functionally this knife is perfect, it fires great, locks up great, looks great and the pocket clip is low profile and blends into the hand when gripped. I also like the modernized Storm Trooper looks. It's not drop shut smooth but probably will be with some flipping time. I also have not played with the pivot, seems a little tight. It's a hair off center when closed, favoring the lock side but no where near rubbing. I have never carried or used it, so it's new in the pouch.

***NOTE***
All of these knives include the pouch, COA, cloth & spare parts and they all have rock solid lockup with no play, are centered when closed (see note on Aich) and have early 20-30% lock engagement. I will not be mentioning those items in each listing to save space. Pictures also show those details.Additional pictures in second post.
