I just finished another auto, thought I’d offer it here until my next show. I'm going to try to be brutally honest about this knife's condition because selling on the internet is so much different than at a show where you can handle it and try it out. Normally I guess I wouldn’t have to say all of this but this one has a few aspects that need to be brought up.
First, from the photo it looks like a tough user that you could open paint cans with. Not true, the blade edge is a bit thinner than I would like for a knife of this size and therefore is not (in my opinion) a tactical knife as it might look.
Second, when you fire the knife, it has a faint ringing (I started a thread about this) that I think is caused by the loose end of the leaf spring vibrating.

Otherwise, it should be a great cutter, fires very nicely and the lock-up is great. The button is mostly flush with the scales (sticks up a bit in the back) and will not accidentally fire


The specs are:
Blade - 3.3" ATS-34, satin finished
OAL - 7.8"
Liners - .050 6AL4V titanium, anodized green (sort of OD)
Scales - Black CF
Spring - O1 leaf spring, one piece with back spacer
Button - ATS-34 rocker bar, heat treated same as blade.
Other - Ti pocket clip machined from one piece, anodized OD green, tip up carry.
finish - the liners, scales, back spacer (w/spring), button and pocket clip are all aluminum oxide blasted.

Price - $550 + $8 s&h (I'll pay the paypal fees you you want to use paypal)

Thanks for looking.
