First thing first, a disclosure.
This knife does NOT have the original blade.
Why (you may be wondering)?
Well...because I owned a couple of these...this one, and one I recently sold
with the blade that was originally part of this knife. I swapped the blades because
#) it looked much better, and #2) I was (and am) generally unconcerned about resale value, and I am
ultimately not a "purist". I want things to be authentic, yes, and for them to be beautiful and to function
properly.
If they are not entirely original, I don't honestly care. You may be different...and I respect that.
I added a timascus clip and backspacer (by AR), as well as a timascus pivot and "blurple"
screws. I'm not sure who made the pivot, but it very much contributes positively to the overall aesthetic.
Action is ideal, as is blade centering. There is no blade play and the OZ "snick" we love hearing is present and
accounted for. Swapping the blades had no effect on the function of the knife. It's still wonderful.
If you are an OZ purist, ** you won't like this knife **...so there is likely no reason to reach out. If
you are more like me, you WILL like this knife...and, please, feel free to reach out.
Condition: excellent overall. I don't believe it was ever carried, and I don't believe it has ever
cut anything. Because it is darkly stonewashed, it's difficult to know for sure if it's been
carried...as I am not the first owner.
Comes with: original box and OZ pouch...also, an original clip and backspacer, as well as extra "stock"
pivot screws and body and clip screws. The clip and backspacer are in "like new" condition.
Price: $SOLD firm NET. This will include insured shipping via USPS Priority Mail.
No trade offers, please, and no lower offers than $SOLD. If I do not receive $SOLD NET for it, I will
keep it. Payment via PayPal or Venmo friends and family...or Zelle...no notes, in any event.
First "I'll take it", followed by a PM and payment, gets it. If you receive an email from me...it won't be
from me. It'll be a scam.
Thank you, fellow members!
