Hey guys. I'm back after a few years away during which I was very busy with college. I'm looking to buy a motorcycle in the next few weeks and have a lot of knives that just sit around.
I'm looking to sell my new Jim Burke custom Hitman for $1,800-$1700 (price drop) including insured shipping. To be clear, this is not the mid tech version, this is not the TAD version, this is not the "operator grade" version. This is a fully custom, all hand made version. It was purchased by me at maker's price for roughly $1,600 3-4 years ago. Because insured shipping will cost a lot, I feel $1,800-$1,700 is a VERY fair price. Barely above maker's cost years ago.
The knife has only ever been flipped, and I am the first owner. I have used rust inhibitor on the blade, and nano-oil on the pivot. Never been carried, literally in perfect condition. Zero blade play, perfect flipping action, perfect blade centering, perfectly symmetrical grind, perfect lockup, etc.
This knife has custom titanium blue anodized hardware, a hand-ground PSF-27 blade, red and green tritium inserts in both sides of the pivot (hard to see in pictures, can see clearly in dark environments), custom anodized and carved titanium scales, a Moku-Ti backspace, and an acid-washed blade. Lock face is treated and lock sits at roughly 15% or so.
Excuse the bad lighting in the pictures, outside is the best lighting I have and it's cloudy out.
If you are interested, please first post in this thread and then contact me. I've been away from Bladeforums for a while I think my messaging settings are set up correctly, I am unsure if you can email me through here. If you cannot I'll post my email. I will only ship within the US, and highly prefer payment via paypal goods and services unless we work something else out. Thanks for looking, and just as an aside if anyone has recommendations on starting on a 300cc sport bike vs a 600cc sport bike I'd be glad to listen. I've ridden my cousin's 600 a few times and feel comfortable, but haven't done anything crazy. Thanks
