Hello! I have many knives for sale but figured I better start with just one since I'm new. I'm putting this one up for sale because I love it so much, I bought another just like it with a color scheme I like better! 
I am also heading to CCKS in November and who knows what I'll see, so extra funds would be nice! Not interested in trades at this time.
This knife has been carried probably a dozen times (it was in a rotation of at least a dozen EDC knives) but it was always babied and treated like pocket jewelry, and never used for any cutting tasks other than 'making confetti' (that's when I pull out a random sheet of scrap paper and cut it into strips to admire the blade's sharpness...
). It still has the factory edge, which is very sharp and glides through paper, and has never been touched up. There are no defects, cosmetic or otherwise, on the blade, scales, or clip. This knife has been disassembled and maintained! It has had the factory grease cleaned out and KPL applied to the pivot assembly (bearings, washers, detente track, etc.), as well as fresh Loctite applied to the pivot screw, and it was thoroughly cleaned. This was done for no other reason than I am anal retentive and maintain my knives as a hobby, not because of any issues with the knife itself.
The action is very smooth and glassy, genuinely unlike (and possibly better than) some of the best midtech knives in this price class that I've handled and also own, and is very snappy with a reverse flick (not demonstrated well in the video linked below due to the glove). It has a very satisfying sound and resonance to the action that the video can't pick up. IYKYK! I am the original owner and bought this knife new from KnifeJoy in March of this year for $645. All original retail packing is included and in like new condition.
I am asking $500 PPGS or $485 PPFF (no notes) or Zelle. First "I'll take it!" / "YOLO!" / "I don't really need two kidneys!" in the thread gets priority. It will ship insured with signature requirement from USPS the same or next day. Shipping will be to the continental US only, I'm afraid. Buyer assumes all responsibility for knowing their local and state knife laws. Please feel free to post any questions in the thread, as well. Think that about covers it. Thanks for reading!
