It's time for a too many knives and not enough money sale.

Rules: First "I'll take it" in the thread or by PM receives priority. Payment due within 2 hours of receiving a confirmation from me. Payment by PayPal preferred. Money order fine too. US sales preferred. Will send international to anyone with 5+ feedback if they pay shipping cost. The listed price includes US priority shipping, PayPal fees, and extra insurance on US shipped items for anything with a listed price over $100. Shipping discount will apply if multiple knives purchased. Only purchase knives that are legal for where you live.

Cash preferred. Will consider trading for: Becker, ESEE, Busse/kin knives with blade length 5" or more; Bark River knives; Fehrman knives; and CRK folders. Users fine. No trades if you have no feedback. If you want more photos, I can take some smartphone photos. If we're working on a trade that hasn't been finalized and someone else will pay cash, I will let you know that the knife is no longer available for trade.

Knife #1: Hinderer XM-18 3" sterile 20cv slicer blade and battleship gray scale
Notes: I bought it used on the forum. Weak detent (standard as far as I know). It stays closed unless shaking hard, and will not flip with a gentle push down on the flipper grooves. Still a great flipper though with a couple minutes of practice (you gotta put a little pressure on the flipper grooves as if trying to keep it closed, then change the pressure direction). No wrist action needed. Works great. Super smooth action and solid lock-up. Centered blade when closed. Early lock-up at 20% or so. There's some visible stonewash wear on the lockbar. If there are other marks, they are very minor. The blade appears to have been sharpened before I got it, but I don't think it's particularly sharp.
Don't really want to sell, but I don't need 3 of these.
Price: $SOLD

Knife #2: Hinderer XM-18 3" s35vn warncliffe blade and battleship gray scale
Notes: I bought it unused from someone and I haven't used it other than working on the smoothness and centering. Weak detent. It stays closed unless shaking hard, and will not flip with a gentle push down on the flipper grooves. Still a good flipper with a couple minutes of practice (again, you gotta put a little pressure on the flipper grooves as if trying to keep it closed, then change the pressure direction). No wrist action needed. Works great. Smooth action and solid lock-up. Blade is centered when closed. You could make it flip easier by loosening pivot, but centering will be affected. Early lock-up at 30% or so. They are a couple of minor marks on the blade, but they are not from cutting. It just look like something rubbed or changed the stonewash finish. Very minor and stonewash finish generally looks great. Original box included.
Price: $350

Knife #3: Strider SNG with tiger stripe S30V blade and light brown scale. Ti side has the flamed pattern.
Notes: I bought it used on the forum. Pretty good detent. It stays closed unless shaking very hard. Overall smooth action and solid lock-up. The lock-up is at about 60%. The blade is just slightly off-center towards the lock-bar side. You can get it centered by loosening the pivot, but then you'll get a little bit of side-to-side movement. There's minor sticky lock right now that can be mitigated with a little bit of pencil action. There are some marks on the blade and Ti side, but doesn't look like it was ever abused. The previous owner did change the blade shape near the tip, but am not sure what it looked like originally. I like it. Thick tip. Sharpened by previous owner. You can see that the sharpening ended up rubbing the blade near the choil.
Price: $SOLD

Knife #4: ZT 0700 BLK with S30VN blade.
Notes: I bought it used on the forum. The scales and blade shows a lot of use compared to most knives around here. The previous user sent it to ZT for sharpening, so the blade is sharp and ready for some more use. Good detent. Good flipper. No wrist action needed. Centered blade when closed. Solid lock-up at around 60%.
Price: $75

Knife #5: Moki 100J lockback knife with AUS-8 blade and Quince wood scales
Notes: I bought it new. Probably used it once to open a letter. Made in Japan. Great overall quality. Blade is super shiny. Includes original pouch and box.
Price: $SOLD

Knife #6: Spyderco manix 2 LW with s110 blade
Notes: I bought it used on forum. Previous owner was a knifemaker as I recall and sharpened it nicely. I haven't used it, but did sand down some of the corners of the scales to see if it increases the comfort. I think it helps. There is a very small chip along the edge about 2mm from the tip. Overall very good condition. Centered blade when closed. Good lock-up. Includes original box.
Price: $SOLD

Knife #7: Spyderco C18P with G-2 blade. The blade includes a Wayne Goddard signature and engraving "WG #20"
Notes: I found this on ebay and loved the design. Don't know much about it, and don't want to use it with the engravings on the blade, which appears to be unused. There's a little bit of minor wear on the scales and clip.
Price: $110

Knife #8: Spyderco Delica with VG-10 flat ground blade and grey scales.
Notes: Pretty sure I bought this new. Might have used it once or twice. Love the ergos, but it doesn't get any pocket time. Includes original box.
Price: $ SOLD

Knife #9: Spyderco Dragonfly VG-10 blade and foilage green G10 scales
Notes: Bought used on forum. Previous owner sharpened and added a mini sharpening choil. Solid knife in great shape. Nicely centered blade when closed. A couple of marks on the scales. Could probably clean off easily.
Price: $SOLD

Knife #10: Spyderco Dragonfly VG-10 blade and black standard scales
Notes: Can't remember where I got it. It's in great condition.
Price: $SOLD

I'm interested, but don't have the 5+ feedback required for int. Shipping. Can we find a solution? I'd love to have one of the 3" hinderers :D
 
I'm trying to figure out the PMs versus thread posts. Will be sending out PMs and/or emails in the next hour. Will give 4 hours for payment since it's next day. Hold on all.
 
Update: #3 (SNG), #5 (Moki), #6 (Manix 2 LW with S110V blade), #10 (Dragonfly with black scales), #14 (PM2 scales) are SPF.
