I've decided to become a knifemaker, and I need to free up really quite a bit of money - so I'm selling literally everything but my user keepers. It's a tough decision, but I've made a career choice and I don't want to endure the irony of scraping for pennies to get supplies and tools to make knives when I have a drawer full of knives I'm not using.

The terms of sale:
  • No lowball offers. That doesn't mean "I know you said no low offers, but" - it means no lowball offers. The reason for this is twofold; my PM inbox will fill up in about two minutes with ridiculous offers, and they're already at pretty good prices. Besides, knifemaking tools and materials aren't free. UNLESS YOU WANT TO SEND ME SOME HINT HINT :)
  • No trades. That doesn't mean "I know you said no trades, but" - it means no trades.
  • Payment should be prompt, or people with seconds/thirds/etc will get dibs. This is because of an email I just got on a previous sale that said, in regards to payment, and I quote: "Ill try and get you the Paypal to you sometime tonight when I get time." Unacceptable.
  • All items are listed with prices that assume paypal gift and include priority shipping with tracking. If you want to use goods/services (which is perfectly reasonable) please add 3.5%. If you send payment via paypal goods without adding 3.5%, I will refund the money minus the 3.5% that is automatically deducted and impossible for me to otherwise get back if I refund the full amount. (Basically, refunding a paypal goods payment in full costs me the 3.5%. I've been burned on this in the past, and it's happened way too many times.)
  • I do not accept personal checks or money orders. Paypal only.
  • ConUS only. Please refer to your local laws. 18 and older only.
  • The first "I'll take it" followed by an email/PM gets it. If there isn't a post saying "I'll take it", the item is still available unless otherwise noted, so go ahead and send me an email/PM. Emails are far and away the most preferred method of communication.

I hope that didn't seem too harsh, but I've done this a few times and this just seems to make it considerably smoother for all involved parties. No surprises, no misunderstandings, no confusion.

**Please also check out my other sales threads here (production) and here (custom).** Prices have been reduced and I'm also willing to entertain offers - which I was not previously.

All knives come with box and papers unless otherwise stated, and all have either nearly flawless or entirely unused factory edges. For the sake of Photobucket bandwidth and thread size consolidation, I have one picture up for each knife and then an album link with more pictures (centering, lockside, lockup)

Thank you! It's exciting and a little terrifying, but I'm done piddling around and working retail. This is the only time I've considered a career path and had no reservations about how much I would enjoy it.
 
I can't seem to send an email through tapatalk on my phone. My email is davids3570@gmail.com.

I sent you an email a little while ago, titled "Comeuppance from Bladeforums re: Lionsteel"

EDIT: Lionsteel is SOLD to dshap!
EDIT: Now I just need an address, heh. Another email sent.
