Due to a probable lapse of sanity, I am posting this here to see if I can move her to a new home. Price reduction for being a user.
VC20 was a very rare steel that I believe Strider got in the form of bearings. It had applications in the space program. It rusts like crazy, but has some pretty otherworldly properties. If you want specifics, I think Sal has some data sheets on his forums (that I don't have at my disposal).
I'm not sure how long this will run. Probably until I regain sanity and put this back in my pocket. She's been sent off to Strider once for a thumbstud that would fall through. What you see if Striders official fix. I've never seen another like it. Pretty, right? Anywho I've used her hard, but properly. She has a good edge, but those with a WE would be able to get something hair shaving. Lockup is tight, no looseness which is cool. I usually marine tuf cloth the blade every week or so, and every few months I completely disassemble to clean out and re-lube the pivot workings.
Here are some pics:







Like I said, beauty, rare, and user.
I'm going to ask$800 $RELISTED shipped CONUS. If you want her INTL, PM me to have me get a reasonable shipping quote for ya.
It will ship USPS priority, all padded like and secure. I prefer paypal at rdklineii@gmail.com. The next day I can get to the post office would be this Wednesday, as an FYI.
As always, if there's an issue with the sales thread mods please point them out. I do my best to follow the guidelines and I'll correct any oversight asap.
Happy New Years, folks.
