Re-starting my collection, and in the process getting some neat things and trying them out. Some, I have decided to not keep. Very open to trades as my goal is to try things out, but not interested in trading down. You know how much that knife you have is worth. Don't be silly. Outright sales are awesome too, as it means cash to buy new toys with.
The terms of sale:
READ THIS BEFORE YOU SEND ME A TRADE OFFER:
No serrations, no assisted knives, no knives with recurves or cutting surfaces under 3.25"
No fixed blades, no lefty folders, no folders without pocket clips, no folders without locks
No SOG, Ka-Bar, Svord, Strider, or Emerson
None of the following steels: 8/9Cr13MoV, 440A/B/C, AUS8, Mystery stainless, 12C27
I hope that didn't seem too harsh, but I've done this a few times and this just seems to make it considerably smoother for all involved parties. No surprises, no misunderstandings, no confusion.

AFor the sake of Photobucket bandwidth and thread size consolidation, I have one picture up for each knife and then an album link with more pictures (centering, lockside, lockup, etc). Some pictures have been brightened to better show the lockup and centering.
Boker Haddock DLC NIB - $relisted
Chris Reeve Umnumzaan LNIB - $370 / 383 goods SOLD
Old pivot, idaho stamp, LBS. Unused, uncarried, and unsharpened, comes with box/card/lanyard. Perfect lockup, smooth pivot, centered, and uncharacteristically sharp AFAIK for a CR knife. Absolutely gorgeous finish on the blade, and some extremely light snail trails on the Ti.
Full album here.
Antiqued Kershaw Cryo -$35 / 36.2 goods SOLD
Bought it with the blade already stonewashed, but didn't like the finish on the handles and the action and edge left a lot to be desired. I refinished the handles and put a 30 degree inclusive edge on the blade that is silly sharp, The washers have been polished and it fires like a rocket with perfect lockup. Centering favors the presentation side slightly and can be adjusted to centered but at the cost of deployment speed. No box.
Full album and video here. I highly recommend watching the video to better see the finish.
Benchmade 7505-132 Dual-Action LNIB -$550 / 569.25 goods SOLD
This is a damned tank. Want a Direware for half the cost? Here you are. Auto fires super hard, but also opens very smoothly as a manual. This is illegal for me to carry in Denver due to both the size and the (albeit concealable) automatic action. Vault lockup and good centering with a couple light marks on the Ti lockside and clip. I was very happy just to handle it for a while, but it should go to someone who will either use or display it. Comes with box, certificate of authenticity, case, baggie, etc.
Full album and video here.
Spyderco Southard: $relisted
Literally brand new in box. Perfect everything. Never used, never sharpened, never carried, never even put it in my pocket. It has spent a grand total of five minutes out of the box: Two minutes of inspection and three minutes of picture taking. Rock solid lockup, perfect flipping action, perfectly centered, no marks on anything
The terms of sale:
- No lowball offers. That doesn't mean "I know you said no low offers, but" - it means no lowball offers. The reason for this is twofold; my PM inbox will fill up in about two minutes with ridiculous offers, and they're already at pretty good prices.
- All items are listed with prices that assume paypal gift and include priority shipping with tracking. If you want to use Goods and Services (which is perfectly reasonable!) please add 3.5%. If you send payment via paypal goods without adding 3.5%, I will refund the money minus the 3.5% that is automatically deducted and impossible for me to otherwise get back if I refund the full amount. (Basically, refunding a paypal goods payment in full costs me the 3.5%. I've been burned on this in the past, and it's happened way too many times.)
- I do not accept personal checks or money orders. Paypal only.
- ConUS only. Please refer to your local laws. 18 and older only. I can ship internationally if the buyer both pays the shipping and accepts that all risk falls on the buyer once it leaves my hands. I haven't had any issues, though.
- The first "I'll take it" followed by an email/PM gets it. If there isn't a post saying "I'll take it", the item is still available unless otherwise noted, so go ahead and send me an email/PM. Emails are far and away the most preferred method of communication.
