Cash can be added either way.

1. Frank Fischer Custom - near mint - $1050
Very well put together 3.5" folder and apparently Frank Fischer's first folder
Fit between the liners and the backspacer is about as perfect as it gets, 100% seamless
Recurve blade with a perfect hand satin
Polished carbon fiber scales
Carbon fiber inlay on both sides of the thumbstud
3D milled clip and jeweled liners
Has been carried so expect some light scratches on the clip and liners
There is a slight bit of blade play but the knife is safe
Smooth action and perfect centering

2. Will Moon Stormcrow - near mint - $450
Upgraded with a CPM-20CV tanto blade
2-tone hand satin blade with a mirror satin on the flats
Black frame with the new clamshell construction
Blasted inset linerlock and Begg-style clip
Runs smooth on caged bearings and flips well
There is some slight blade play that might go away as the knife breaks in
Blade sits well centered

3. Grimsmo Norseman - very good condition - $950
Norseman #1244 with the new detent ramp
Stonewashed RWL-34 blade
Honeycomb-pattern frame
Stonewashed lockside
Front handle slab and clip have been given a purple anodization
Blade has been sharpened to a near-mirror edge
Has some light normal carry wear
Perfectly centered, locks up tight, and has that famous drop-shut action

4. Jeff VanderMeulen Homicide - near mint - $875
3.5" blade with a nice hamon and a compound recurve grind
Thick matte stonewashed ti frame that's been fully contoured
Thick blind-screwed mokuti clip
Blurple anodized custom pivot and standoff
Locks securely, centering is perfect, and smooth action

5. Jeff VanderMeulen Mini Intro - near mint - $650
3.5" S30V blade with a stonewashed hand satin finish
Contoured handle with stonewashed ti bolsters and green G-10 scales
Runs smooth on IKBS and has a nice snappy detent
Locks with zero play
Centering favors the lockside but doesn't come close to rubbing the liner, even when I try to push it over
Very comfortable in hand

6. Crusader Forge FIFP EX - like new - $1200
The biggest most overbuilt folder from Crusader Forge
Has a huge 4.75" blade and comes in at about 11.5" overall
Blade is in CPM-S30V with a dammeron camo Gun Kote and a Spydiehole
The frame and clip have a different battern Gun Kote and has a nice almost-blasted feel to it
Knife runs glass smooth on modified GTC bearings but since it has a long heavy blade, the detent is light
Centering seems to very slightly favor the lock side
Lockup is rock solid
