If you have any questions about what's listed, just let me know and I'll do my best to help you out. For more details, specs, or pictures, ask and ye shall receive. You can reach me through private message or through my email: kenleung1995 at hotmail dot com. I also check my threads fairly often so I'll see your posts. I can work with you on the price for some of these and I'm open to trades. Prices include all shipping and PayPal fees in the US. I'll be happy to ship international but the buyer will need to assume all risks and help cover the cost of shipping. Thanks for your time.

For trades, I'm looking for: Jon Grahams, Ochs Worx, Yunas, Marlowes, GTCs, Sharknivcos, RJ Martins, Dalibors, Broadwells, Black Snow Customs, Phantom Steelworks, Jim Burkes, Blackwoods, VanderMeulens, Chris Goodwyns, Rogovets, Ansos, Mosiers, Grimsmos, Jason Guthries, Dwyer BBN, ZT 0454, G&G Deadlock, Rockstead Kou and Shun, and maybe a custom Emerson or just Striders in general but if you have other offers, I'm happy to hear them. Cash can be added either way.

1. Phantom Steelworks Operator XL - like new - $2100
The biggest folder Chris makes and a rare model from him
The blade, frame, clip, and both sides of the pivot have been murdered (textured)
4.5" blade in CPM-3V and with his unique "unearthed" finish
Both the entire front handle slab and the clip are in timascus and the texture makes it really shimmer in the light
Lockside is flamed ti
Inside of the frame is blasted
Has the best action I've felt on a Phantom Steelworks
Snaps open with a nice double-click and locks up tight
Centering is dead on

2. Sharknivco M11 - lightly carried and used - $900
Well built and well designed like you'd expect from Edison
3.25" CPM-S35VN reverse tanto blade
Working finish blade and frame
Contoured frame
The blade sits almost flush with the back of the frame but the tip is still well covered
Has a custom pivot and a pivot collar on the back
Has been carried and used but the finishes help to hide the wear, it's most noticeable on the clip
Runs smooth on bearings and has a great detent
Centering is dead on and it locks with zero play

3. Pat Hammond Wave - like new - $650
Lee Williams taught Pat how to make a knife and it shows
Mechanically this is one of the most perfect knives I've handled
Action is glass smooth with a perfectly dialed in detent
You have to try very hard to get this one to misfire
Centering is dead on and it locks without a hint of blade play
Acidwashed blade
Fully contoured ti frame that's been lightly orange-peeled and then matte stonewashed
Clip has been bronzed and orange-peeled
Show side pivot has some checkering

4. Chuck Gedraitis Model 1 - lightly carried - $500
If Chris Reeve made a medium Sebenza, it would feel something like this
3.25" damasteel blade with a damasteel thumbdisc
Stonewashed frame with a matching milled clip
Has a single green anodized standoff in the back
Smooth action and well centered
Has a slight bit of play but any pressure on the lockbar makes it completely go away
Lockup is rock solid in hand

5. Jason Clark Hybrid Wharncliffe - near mint - $550 --> Traded
3.5" CTS-XHP blade with a 2 tone satin and Jason's Duplex grind
Blasted ti frame
Timascus overlay on the front and has a timascus clip
Full backspacer with his signature checkering
Hole pattern on the lockside with polished edges
Not completely broken in but already runs smooth
Centering seems to favor the lock side by a slight hair but doesn't come close to rubbing
Lockup is rock solid
Comes with the COA
