yea, i figured that title would get some "whiskey tango foxtrots"s 
obviously i'm prepared to pick my end up or i wouldn't even suggest this. had planned on selling the Kim and buyin a BM, but hey might as well save a step right.
it comes with the original box, it's in great shape. it HAS been sharpened, but i am TOTALLY ANAL about perfect bevels. i has been upgraded to PB washers and the pivots screws have been BLT'd. the 51 would have to be smooth and clean. i'm more concerned about the condition of the BM than the shortfall i'm looking at.
i hate to part with it. truth is - i had a BM42 and the Kimura at the same time and chose to sell the BM42. however, the lack of a clip causes it to be excluded from EDC (the purpose of the desired 51) and i'm not a serious enough flipper to keep a knife dedicated for such when it could be used to reduce the financial impact of acquiring a piece more suited to my needs.
it IS, currently missing ONE spacer screw, but i am about to call Kershaw (YES, it IS Kershaw that handles that sort of thing NOT Bradley) and get a replacement.
not intrested in ANY other trades, unless you have a Ratmanduex LE or a Bark River Smoke Jumper in Tiger Stripe or Red/Black micarta. eh.... maybe a 6" aluminum Ti Lite.
