CRK Umfaan Zig Zag graphic. I bought this one used and havent done anything with it. As you can see by the photo some idiot really went to work on this thinking they would make it look better, what they did was mess it up IMO, so this one needs a refurb in a bad way, well, unless you want a total user. The blade was polished, they didnt even remove the blade to do it so the base of the blade still shows the tumbled finish and the rest is a poorly done polish job. Looks like they got into the thumbstud and removed some of it, so its smaller on one side than the other. The Graphic side actually looks pretty good, they did get into the end of it a bit with the polishing and you can see where they did that, but other than that I see very little to no wear. The bead blasted side has some minor carry wear. Lockup and action are perfect. I've talked to CRK about this one and they said they can fix it, new thumbstuds, polish or tumble the blade, polish the graphic, rebeadblast the lock side, and tune it up. I have no doubts it would come back looking new, and this is my plan if it doesnt sell, but I thought I'd just put it out here first to see if there was any interest. No box or paperwork with this one. Anyhow, Asking 500.00 + 3% paypal shipped and insured.

Thanks for looking

Good Question! Heres what Heather told me when I emailed her with some questions on this one, she answered my questions in the body of the email so I put her answers in blue, as she did(they didnt copy and paste that way)

They tried to polish the blade, they didnt even dis-assemble it first. So the blade is in need of a polishing or tumbling to make it uniform again, can it be done and how much?– yes, we will include a new lug too -- $23.Also, I guess when they did that they took some off the thumbstud somehow so it needs new thumbstuds. Lastly the handle scales need a reblasting and polishing on the graphic side. What do you think the total damage to my bank account will be on the full spa treatment? The cost to polish the handle is $23, to polish/tumble the blade is $23 plus shipping. Total: $56 w/ shipping.

Hope that works.

Thanks
