First I need to get all the mumbo jumbo out of the way
-All knives are sold "as is" when you buy the knife, you buy the knife
-I will be 100% honest in my appraisal of the knives
-I choose to do business with whomever I choose, as do you
-The first I'll take followed by a pm gets first grabs
-Paypal only please
-Continental US only, please

I've been reading posts the last couple days that have gotten me into a funk about the knife industry in general. Knifemakers welching on deals; knife buyers feeling left in the dark. It honestly blows me away. I don't know if you guys (and gals) have noticed, but I like to give people a good deal. I'm a schmuck, I know. But I'm a very blessed and lucky schmuck. Just this morning Gilles over at Fontenille Pataud gave me an unbelievable deal on a wooly mammoth laguiole knife. I felt inspired. I would like to take my good fortune and spread it around.

I would like to offer a couple knives that...yadda yadda yadda..let's get on with it.

Ok, So I have a Chris Reeve one piece knife. I think it's a shadow IV, I'm not sure. It's about 8 inches long with a 4 and 1/2 inch blade with a saber grind. And it's A-2 steel. That's all I know. This knife is old. I bought it a long time ago. I thought that the original sheath that came with it sucked, so I threw it in the garbage and bought this pancake sheath. I like it. It rides high on the hip. I've sliced paper and grapes with it. I ran it across my sharpmaker. By the way, is there anyone out there who can actually tell if a knife has been sharpened if it has only been on a sharpmaker? I haven't met that person. It's a pretty solid knife for a user. For the collector, you're kind of SOL because I don't have the box or paperwork. These knives have sold. Thank you. But wait...there's more! If you buy this knife I will throw in a Chris Reeve Professional Soldier. It is also an older knife as well. So the one thing I can guarantee is that this knife is made from S30V. I took the lanyard off as I do with all my knives, so right now it is in "unprofessional mode". To the "novice" this is a nice bundle. If you're one of those freaks with a jeweler's loupe, you need not apply.

Next I have a Carter Cutlery neck knife. It is made in Hitachi white steel laminated with a softer outer core. The scales are ironwood. The tang is tapered. It is as new as the day I bought it straight from Murray. You can have it for $300. What you see is what you get.

MrNyfe....... Your not going to last long on Bladeforums. I posted I Will Take It followed by a PM AS YOU STATED IN YOUR LISTING. Now I get a PM from you saying someone else beat me....???? Really......??? Where is their post.....???? You already flubbed on a for sale thread earlier a week ago. Now yet again....????

BUYER BEWARE.... DO NOT DEAL WITH THIS SELLER....!!!

PM is being sent to the Mods as well.
 
Hey Gun shooty guy. You must be pretty ugly if you won't even post a picture of yourself on the internet. If you read the rules, you will note that whenever there is a contradiction in rules, the more stringent rule applies. Open your non squinty eye and read the rule I posted just above the "I'll take it" rule. Since you're an ass, I choose not to do business with you. I tried to send you a polite PM, but you want to drag it out into the open. That's fine, I have nothing to lose. Unlike you, my entire identity isn't tied to a message board about knives. I somehow made it this far in life without being affiliated with this site. Deep down inside, I feel like I can make it through the rest of my days intact if in fact my days are numbered here. If you would take a minute to read, (advice I wish I could have given you 20 years ago) you would know that I only intend to stay on this site long enough to sell the old knives that I wish to purge from my inventory. Go ahead. Get the mods involved. What? Is mommy too busy in the shower to help you or something? Please. What is it with you nut jobs and your temper tantrums over a flipping piece of metal? Get over it.
 
I seem to have spit bubbles coming out of my mouth - have I read something that was so filled with ego and narcisstic in nature it brought tears to my mouth?

Maybe you just have a drooling problem. It's hard to be sure. Thank you all for your interest in my activity on Blade Forums, but to avoid getting into hot water with the moderators, could you please not blow up my sales threads? Thank you for your consideration.
 
That was awesome, gotta say. I really think that the op is in the right. Never dealt with the pissed off guy, but I think at the end of the day, the op has the right to refuse sale to anyone they choose. Bad form on calling the op out in the public and trying to brand him a bad seller.....just because you're pissed you missed out on a deal because of the way you allegedly talked to the guy (I say allegedly because I'm not going to speculate on what is rude etc, but the point is that the op was offended in some way by you and thus exercised his right to refuse the sale to you....easy peasy now just move on right?)
