Here is a knife I really don't know much about. It is made by Fox and Ruko apparently, and looks a lot like some of Fox's newer karambits, but without the Emerson wave. It is used, so there is coating wear on the scales and hardware. There are some light scratches and blemishes on the blade as well, and it has been sharpened at least once. I have the pivot a little loosened, so it's very smooth, but the blade is off center (not rubbing). Lockup is solid at about 75%
Here are the specs that I could determine:

Overall length: 7 5/8"
Closed length: 5 1/4"
Blade length: 2 7/8"
Blade thickness: 2.5mm
Hole diameter: 31/32"
Thickness of handle: 15/32"

One piece aluminum backspacer/finger ring
Blue(ish) aluminum scales
Skeletonized non-locking liner
440C blade steel
Made in Italy
Model # 478

I have no idea what this knife is worth, but I would like to get $70 *SOLD* for it. That includes Priority shipping (US only) and Paypal fees.

Thanks for looking!

I also have some small fixed blades for sale. Prices also include shipping (US only) and Paypal fees.

1. TOPS Lil Roughneck, used - This is a heavy duty knife! The blade is 10mm thick for one thing... I have reprofiled the edge on a grinder, so there are some slightly uneven grind lines on the edge, but it is much more useable than when it arrived. Comes with sheath. Didn't have a box. - $80

2. Boker Steel Mariner, lightly used - The first thing I did to this thing when I got it was sharpen it. I didn't spend much time on it, so the edges aren't that great, but it cuts cardboard! I also super-glued the scales near the pommel, to fix some wiggling. As a result there is super glue all over the pommel, but at least the scales are fixed, right? No box. - $25

3. Boker Gnome, used - Awesome, but a little small. Has been sharpened, and has opened some boxes, etc. Light scratches on blade. Comes with box. - $25 *SOLD*


4. CRKT Sting, like new - Catch and release. Has cut paper. Comes with velcro leg/arm? straps for sheath. Made from one piece of steel! No box. - $25 *SOLD*


5. CRKT Ringer, used - I have wrapped the finger rings with denim and glued it, and sharpened it several times. I also re molded the sheath for better retention when worn. Comes with box, not sure if I have the bead chain it came with... - $15 *SOLD*
