As steelnut said above, the BWM will be vastly easier to replace later. And, given how soft the market is now for expensive knives, you may not be able to sell the other, except at a loss.

This is really the crux. It seems like the Combat grade models are taking less of a hit in overall value.

The higher end knives seem to be much harder to get your money out of, especially if you bought high.

If you aren't trying to make this look like a sale solicitation, then there's no reason to state that you are selling it and why. Would have been simpler to merely ask "If you could only keep one, which...? What are the pros & cons of each?", etc.



Again, TMI as pertaining to selling...



Back to the vague selling thing...



Your SA brother is NOT helping you here... :thumbdn: (Sorry, Alfaholic, but you know better. You could have just as easily sent Brendan an email.)



Yes, it is tricky hunting for opinions/values while trying to not make it look like you are soliciting a sale. However, it can be done. If you had a Gold membership or higher, that would add leeway, as the forum frowns heavily on those trying to make a buck on the backs of us who do support this site; and so seeing you as Gold, they would already know that you have one of the valid memberships to sell on BF.
IIRC you were once Gold, yes? ...So I'm merely stating a fact, not trying to ride you about it, just pointing out where others are coming from.

If you want this thread left open, I'd appreciate some heavy editing...

As to the Banned bullet nose... Most likely, there are only one or 2 of these as done by Ban. Value can be determined by a.)what you paid, b.)what you want to get for it, and c.)what you can expect to see for it based on facts such as... Nice custom job by Ban, but OTOH, the potential Buyer can no longer expect the knife to have a warranty through Busse, as it has been rather heavily modded outside the Custom Shop, etc.

Personally, if I went through the trouble & expense of having Ban do what he did to the FFBM, I'd keep it and sell the unmodified BWM, knowing that if I regret selling it, I can easily find another as soon as I can afford it.

Thanks for giving me the benefit of doubt Jaxx. It was a legitimate question - apologies if it came across as anything else - I was just being honest (maybe too much so)
 
Ban may be no longer modding knives to pursue other interests. So my vote is to keep the Ban'd BM.

Good luck,
