Good day,
For your consideration is a RSW Model 6. I traded into this knife without knowing much about it or the maker. If I'm honest, it surprised me quite a lot in its function. If you value the action on a flipper, then this is a knife that is seriously worth your consideration. With its slender frame and smooth, active action, it reminds me a lot of the norseman I had awhile back. Also, it glides into the closed position with a few wiggles of your wrist which tells me the pivot system is dialed in just like the Thorburn I used to own. This knife is a gem. Blade is sharp and has no scuffs.
My suspicion is this is a knife that would be a great option for anybody who is looking to trade into the custom world. Those guys and gals with experience with customs are probably gonna look at this knife and keep on walking, much like I had planned to do. That said, this knife is a great example of what a custom flipper is all about. Anybody willing to take the plunge on this little secret of a knife will get a relatively inexpensive introduction into the fit and function of a custom folder flipper. I recently broke my EDC, and I need to generate some cash, so I am hoping to trade down for those two things: a new to me EDC and some cash. I am pretty open to options regarding trades, but I don't have a ton of experience with ZT or Emerson, so I would give those a try. Really though, I am flexible and I would like to work with someone so they can have the chance to get to know a custom blade.
I have provided the details of the Model 6 below. I will add pictures later tonight when I get home as the pics I currently have won't upload to the forum. Until then, anyone interested in the knife can PM me and I will be happy to email the pics I have. Last thing, when I traded into this knife, I was told it was like new and rock-solid in its lock-up. That is mostly true. There is a hint of vertical lock rock - not much at all, but it's there. Otherwise the knife is very impressive.
Please see the details below, and please feel free to PM me if you have any questions, interest, or concerns. Thanks in advance for your time and consideration.
