Hey y’all! I bought too many knives, so now most of them have to go.

I will only do ConUS; all prices are shipped PP G&S only. None of these folders have seen hard use; wear will be detailed per knife. Please let me know via PM if you’d like to see more pics. I reserve the right not to sell to anyone based on my own discretion, regardless of buyer status. An “I’ll take it” followed by PM seals the deal.

I want to sell all of these knives, so if you like a knife but don’t like the price, let me know and let’s see if we can work something out!

My BM Bugout (also for sale) will be used periodically throughout the videos as a size comparison.

If you can’t get the videos to load, PM for pics! (Or if you’d just like any additional pics)

Trades are welcomed. PM with offers.

First up is a biggy; my customized Reate Iron with Timascus and CF inlays, Timascus pocket clip, and backspacer. It’s a titanium framelock, with an M390 blade that’s been acid washed and has a Spydie hole cut into it! It flips (and flicks) great. The ergos are really, really good. The palm swell fits right into my large hands, and the choil provides another level of versatility. Has some normal wear on the lock side of the knife, and nothing really on the show side, or blade. There are a few unidentified smudges on the back side of the blade, but those might be removable. I didn’t try, as I didn’t want to mess with the acid wash. I really, really love this knife, but it’s worth more to me sold than kept. Price is $500 if you will do F&F.(**do this at your own risk, I cannot vouch for myself, and the forum does no recommend it**) Price is $525 G&S Shipping is free. No box bag or cloth.


Next is my LNIB Kizer Nomad. No marks on the blade or handle. Blade is 3.78” of S35VN. Flat ground, and comes sharp. Flips very smoothly and drops shut without a hitch. Aside from the sometimes annoying lockbar, this would be a great knife to fidget with thanks to the action. Regardless of the size. Comes with box, pouch, cloth. Sharp. $130 PP G&S shipped! **NO LONGER AVAILABLE**


Next is my CH Emperor! Titanium framelock, with Timascus pivot collars and an S35VN blade. Runs on bearings, flips strongly and closes without trouble. I am the second owner of this knife. Upon receiving it several weeks ago, I disassembled it, cleaned it, and lubed it. It’s actually running on WD -40 at the moment, which works surprisingly well… No marks on blade or handle. Comes sharp. It is worth mentioning, however, that the thumbstud is basically unusable on this model of knife. Didn’t bother me too much. The flipper works fine. $145 shipped PP G&S. **NO LONGER AVAILABLE**


Up next is my BM Bugout (also used in size comparisons). It’s basic S30V and G10. No frills. Comes sharp. It is worth mentioning that the centering is fairly off as I will show in the video. Some tinkering could probably help it out, though I’m no BM expert. $90 shipped.


Next is my Real Steel Megalodon Indiana Knives Exclusive (No. 167 of 200). This is a titanium framelock with a tan micarta showside scale, and 3.93” of razor sharp M390 blade. This knife has cut nothing but paper, and except for the light blue jean stain on the micarta, I would label it LNIB. It’s worth noting that a few weeks after I got this knife, the pivot screw started coming loose, ruining the centering. I tightened it back up, so it’s back to perfect, but it probably needs some locktite and tuning to exactly where you want it! Which I will likely end up doing if nobody buys this. As it is, flipping is very smooth, and it closes very smoothly as well, with a slight hydraulic action. Detent is on the lighter side, but the lockup is still strong. Comes arm hair shaving sharp (tested). I really like this knife, but there are a few higher class knives that I like even better, so… $140 PP G&S Shipped. **NO LONGER AVAILABLE**


Next is my Kizer Eliminator II. Designed by Michael Vagnino, this knife features a titanium framelock and a 3.25” S35VN blade with a hollow grind on it. Large grippy handle—does have snail trails on it. Smooth action, but not snappy. Good lockup, no problems with the centering. Comes with the box, pouch, extra screws, and microfiber cloth. $100 Shipped PP G&S. **NO LONGER AVAILABLE**


Finally I have my Civivi Wyvern. This features a 3.45” D2 blade with a hollow grind. FRN dragon scale scales with a liner lock. Titanium pocket clip. Very snappy action. Other than paper no use. LNIB. It’s a Civivi; good action, lockup, detent, etc. In addition, it is possible to middle finger flick this knife with some annoyance and potentially scratched fingernails. **NO LONGER AVAILABLE**


PM for anything! And let me know if any of the video links don’t work…
