ALL PICTURES BELOW

-Chris Reeve Large MICARTA Insingo Sebenza: I hate to sell this one a lot. It's definitely one of my most prized knives but it just doesn't get much carry and never any real use because it's so nice. It has a small amount of wear from carry that you should be able to see in the pics. Mostly the only real wear to speak of is a couple of minor scratches on the pocket clip. It has been carried a handful of times and very seldom has it been used. The blade shows no wear but it has been sharpened one time just to give it a much sharper edge and a great mirror polish on my Wicked Edge (for aesthetic reasons) and hasn't been used with the new edge, which removed very little steel as always. The knife could look brand new if sent to CRK but it shows such little wear that I don't think it's worth it. Very good looking knife that is just so perfect! I hate to lose it. This one also has earlier lockup than most Sebenza's. Just a great knife.$400

-Kershaw Tilt SW: I am the second owner of this but purchased it new in box. I carried it carefully once but was too worried about scratching it and never carried it again. It looks just about perfect, as far as I can tell. It does have a tiny, almost invisible mark on the clip that I tried to photograph. It has to be held in the right light to be seen. Not sure if that was there when it was new because it was so small I wouldn't have noticed it. I'm not sure how else it would have gotten there. I put a mirror polished edge on it with my Wicked Edge just for aesthetic purposed and because it wasn't very sharp. Has not been used to cut anything. It's probably good enough for most people to be a "perfect" collectors piece, but maybe not quite "new in box", or at least not technically. Includes box which is a little bent on corners, etc, from shipping. But does include box. SOLD

-Spyderco Paramilitary 2 Orange Sprint with CTS-XHP blade steel: This has not been used at all. I am the second owner, and purchased it from someone who purchased several of these when they came out. He shipped it to me new in box and I have carefully kept it and not used it since. It's a brand new knife. I always bought a matching lanyard for it that I will include. Includes box. SOLD

-Spyderco Tuff: This is a great knife that has been smoothed out. I would bet this is the smoothest and easiest to open Tuff in the world! As you may know, the short lockbar adds tension and makes them hard to open but this one has been smoothed out and is much, much smoother than most. Really high quality and strong knife that was a perfect specimen and still is except for somehow when cutting a few plastic zip ties once, a couple of hairline scratches appeared on the blade. They are very hard to find, but they're there. A few times I thought they were gone because you have to hold the knife at the perfect angle to the light to see them and they can be hard to find. Very, very minor blemish to an otherwise perfectly as new looking knife with a mirror polished edge. The only thing I ever cut with it was those zip ties and it was not a carry knife. I used my Wicked Edge to put a great mirror polish on the edge and an insanely sharp edge. It has not been used since the new edge was applied and was only sharpened once. And again, it was only used to cut a few zip ties before that. Includes box. $180

-Spyderco Gayle Bradley: This knife was not a user and has spent most of it's life sitting with a light coat of oil on the blade. EXTREMELY smooth and a very well made specimen. It has zero patina on the M4 blade. I put a great mirror polished edge on it (the only time it was ever sharpened) and it hasn't been used since. Very little to no signs of use or wear at all. Pretty much as it came new (aside from the mirror polish) as far as I can tell). Very solid. Includes box. SOLD

-Shirogorov Hati 95: If you know of this brand then you probably know how amazing these knives are. I've owned CRK, Hinderer, Strider, and lots of customs and this knife is the only knife I've ever owned that I consider to be as perfect in terms of fit and finish as Chris Reeve Knives, and it's even more amazing with all of the little details and machining features. This is one of the knives I'm most sad to see go because they are just outstanding. This one is exactly as I got it new from True North Knives (the only North American Dealer). TNK says it is a custom knife because only the two Shirogorov brothers build these. I got it from them at a knife show and picked this one as the most perfect of all of the ones on their table, and they were all amazing. This is possibly the finest knife specimen I've ever seen. They are just outstanding. I have not used it, it's as I bought it new. It has great carbon fiber and a great dark stonewash that has a "hand-done" look to it with uneven scratching patterns and just a beautiful look. The hardware is all hand polished, etc. It's completely as new and unused aside from a mirror polished edge I put on it, as usual, with my Wicked Edge, for aesthetic purposes. It has a very even thin grind and as such, the edge is also very even. Perfect blade that's very sharp. True North Knives, the only North American Company that can get these from Russia, does not have this knife in stock. However, I'm still selling it for what I paid TNK for it at the knife show. Comes with box, of course. SOLD

-Carbon Fiber Limited Edition Benchmade Mini Onslaught: This was a Knifework's Exclusive that is just amazing looking. I believe they've been sold out for a while now. There's not much to say but that it's an amazing looking knife that is exactly as I received it. It has not been used, just a show piece. Comes with box, of course, and is a new, unsharpened knife. SOLD

-Benchamde Limited Edition AFCK 806-1101 BLK: This is a great limited edition piece that I hate to see go. It was used very lightly by the previous owner. There are just hints of use on the blade that show up in pictures slightly under light, but the blade looks pretty much perfect in person. The pocket clip is parkerized and like most Benchmade pocket clips, it's a little scratched and worn looking from the factory. It's basically a lightly used knife that I thought would be a user for myself, but it was so much nicer and close to new looking when I got it that I decided not to use it and keep it that way. One cosmetic issue, however, is that one of the anodized blue standoffs that faces the inside of the knife (where it's not usually seen, as opposed to the spine of the knife where it still looks like new) is missing the anodization. It's almost looks like it was scraped off or the blade of the knife dug into it. However, as the previous owner pointed out, the blade of the knife has no "dents" or any indication that it made contact with the standoff on the inside of the knife. The blade closes just like it's supposed to and does not get near touching the standoff, but somehow the finish was removed. Kind of weird but it's a cosmetic blemish only and is not normally seen. Pictures are included. SOLD

You can very faintly see the tiny blemish on the pocket clip. A horizontal line just below the screws for the clip in this picture.

Another bump. Had lots of offers but most of the knives are right about where they are worth selling to me. I'm not trying to make a particularly good deal for myself, I just want to get what I believe is a normal/fair price for them.
