Howdy, BF! Spring has sprung and I'm back to pruning my collection. Please see the album below for pictures from every angle (and if Imgur won't let you zoom, right click and open the images in a new tab for jumbo versions).


All knives have their factory edges, have never been disassembled, and include their boxes and everything else they originally came with (Shiro COA, Hinderer Tri-Way parts, etc.). I've been told I "over-disclose" in my listings, but I like being thorough and I want you to know exactly what you're getting.

Koenig Arius - SOLD (was $640) - CPM-20CV blade steel, polished/satin flats, textured titanium handles, blue hardware, gen 4 batch 9. Truly a next-level knife. Flies open, a pleasure to deploy via flipper or slot, razor sharp, drops shut, solid lock-up. Carried, rarely used. There are minor signs of carry, all shown in the pics: a few tiny marks on the bead-blasted clip, light "wear" in the anodization on the pivot, and one or two minuscule marks near the lanyard loop. Second owner, purchased as new from first owner. Koenig's price in this configuration is $800 (when you can find one!).

Hinderer Project X - SOLD (was $485) - S45VN blade steel, Tri-Way, stonewashed blade and lock side, orange G10. Indistinguishable from new, and a perfect example of a Project X. Detent on the lighter side, smooth and snappy action, solid lock-up. From the built-in disassembly tool to the textured lock-side to the hidden stop pin, this model is full of nifty design elements. Never carried or used. Second owner, purchased as new from first owner. These retail for $500 and sell out instantly.

Demko AD20S - SOLD (was $385) - CTS 204P blade steel, orange G10 handle. Phenomenal ergonomics, rock-solid lock-up, superb action, super fidgety. Carried, but rarely used. Light signs of carry on the G10. There is a faint darker area on the Shark Lock, as it came from Demko (and shown in a pic). Original owner. These go for $425 and sell out in seconds.

Shirogorov NeOn NL - SOLD (was $425) - Elmax blade steel, OD green micarta inlays. Solid lock-up, perfect Shiro action. From the way it maximizes cutting edge to the slim profile to the wild amount of machining work, this is a fantastic model. Carried and used occasionally. Only sign of carry is the obvious color change in the micarta, from handling. These retail for $550 and are perpetually sold out.


Benchmade Bugout 535BK-4 - relisted - M390 blade steel, dark stonewashed aluminum handles. The nicest BM I've ever owned, with solid lock-up and fantastic action. Carried occasionally, used sparingly. There's one tiny mark on the show side scale that looks like a byproduct of the stonewashing, only visible from just the right angle (which I've captured in a pic); that's how it came. Original owner. These retail for $270.

PayPal only, "Goods and Services" only, US only (and no proxy shipping). I'm covering USPS shipping and PayPal fees. Please ask questions via PM or profile post. :)

Trades: I have two trade interests: 1) a Strider SnG (not 3V blade steel, would prefer a textured show side scale), and 2) a textured, stonewashed titanium scale for a Hinderer XM-18 3.0.

The first "I'll take it" in this thread followed by a PM or profile post gets dibs. (Questions, "I'll take it if," and the like aren't the same as claiming a knife.) If I haven't seen your PM/profile post 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. I reserve the right to do business with whomever I choose. Thanks for looking! :)

Just wanted you to know your practice of keeping the prices up after the sale is extremely appreciated. Wish more did this.
Thx😀

It's a polarizing practice, to say the least. I find past pricing useful when setting my own prices, so I keep mine up so other folks can do the same. But I understand why many sellers remove them, too.
