LNIB Brian Tighe Tighe Stick in BG 42 - Just got this back from Brian. He blasted the body and replaced the lock bar. This knife is over 12 years old (confirmed by the man himself.) The lock up is perfection and the knife functions perfectly. The handle design is amazingly comfortable (I have mid sized hands.) The blade design and grind are unbelieveable. Putting some feelers out here. I do not expect to let this one go easily.

Lightly used Reese Weiland w/ Stingray Inlay - The knife has seen pocket time but very little to no use. It has the requisite snail trails from pocket time. Also, the lock does "slip" a bit creating the feel of a tiny amount of lock rock. Essentially the lock bar is a touch too smooth and will inward freely. Its not a risk for closing inadvertently but still an issue. I've never seen the need to do this but I am sure Reese will fix this if asked. The grind on this knife is really interesting: its flat ground on one side and a shallow hollow grind on the other. This gives the impression of being chisel ground but it, in fact, isn't.

Chris Reeve Large Sebenza Fastened - The knife is near new. I believe its been carried 3-4 times with some very minor snail trails. I do not have the cloth but I am including a leather slip case for it. Comes with a CRK lanyard bead (gold ano'd Ti, I believe.)

Strider PT CC - Also a user. Aside from some expected wear, the knife is perfect. I recently bought an SJ75 and prefer it to the PT so on the block this one goes.

Lightly used Spyderco Domino w. Custom G10 Scale - This was my EDC for a week or two. In that time, the knife saw very light use. Basically opened some letters / boxes / cut some tape. There are some minimal signs of pocket wear. The blade doesn't show use but there are small snail trails on the lock side. Lock up is solid, flipping action, and centering are all perfect. I have the original scale.

Surefire Pen 01 (EWP 01) - This was my EDC pen for a while and its freaking awesome. It will take damn near any refill type (e.g. the pen can be adjusted to differing lengths of the refill to accommodate almost any refill.) I've since moved on to the TiPen and want to find this one a good home.

Specifically, interested in the following:
* Strider SJ75
* Strider SnG in a unique or exotic steel
* Mini Griptillians in M4 or M390
* On a Silver Twill CF / G10 kick lately
* William Henry
* Silver (not scrap --ideally ASE's)
* Custom Folders
* Esee Izula 2
* Microtech Socom Delta


Feel free to make an offer. The worst that happens is we don't work something out.

Hinderer XM-18 3.5" Spanto in 20CV - This is a user. Action, lock up, and F&F are all perfect. There are signs of use; scratches on the Ti side of the knife (more or less exactly what you'd expect.) Love the knife but just don't need this one.

Used Spyderco Grey G10 scales / S30V blade - This is a re-blade from a S30V Ti Mil. The knife functions just fine but is most definitely a user. Lock up, detent, centering, and action are all good. The handle is from a CruWear Mil. A previous owner tried to drill holes for Tip Up carry. These have since been filled and sanded. The blade is used. It has previously been splattered with Battery Acid. This doesn't affect function but just looks ugly (like a crappy patina on the blade.) Overall, a good knife if you're looking for something to throw in pocket and use.
