Custom Hiroaki Ohta friction folder - SOLD ($85) - ATS 34 blade, ironwood covers, carbon fiber liners, and a micarta back strap, weighs just 1.3 oz, 4" closed not counting the lever, which adds 3/4"; 3" modified Wharncliffe blade.
This was $232 new. Carried for about a month, carefully, and used exactly once. There are no signs of use. Fit and finish are superb. Pivot is perfectly tuned for smooth action, and the edge is sharp. It can be easily opened and closed with one hand. Like new.
There is a tiny chip in the micarta backstrap where the tip rests when closed, and a tiny chip in the backstrap just past where the lever sits when open. Both were present when I bought it, and are shown below. They're difficult to notice in person, but I'm a big fan of full disclosure in listings.
PayPal only, "Goods and Services" only, continental US only. I'm covering USPS Priority Mail shipping and the PayPal fee. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask!
The first "I'll take it" in this thread followed by a PM gets dibs. (Questions, "I might be interested if," and the like aren't the same as claiming a knife.) If I haven't seen your PM within an hour, I'll assume you changed your mind and the knife will be available to others.
Buyer affirms they're legally permitted to own what they buy. No trades.
Thanks for looking!
