*ALL SOLD!* Thanks :thumbup:
Hello, folks!
Up for sale today, I have a small batch of discontinued Spyderco knives.
First is a C54BMS Spyderco Calypso. Serrated blade, black micarta handles. Blade steel is VG-10. Pocket clip is painted black with gold bug, tip down carry. Original box included. In my humble opinion, one of the best Spyderco knives ever made.
I bought this one new, and carried it twice. It's been subject to infrequent light fondling over the years. I'm going to extremely picky when listing defects, but it should be noted that the knife appears new to all but the most stringent scrutiny. First, there is very light wear on the finish of the pocket clip; the pocket clip screws have similar wear on the finish. There are some fine scratches on the front scale. They are barely noticeable when you tilt the knife in the light. Very fine scratches on the polished pins and pivots. Fine scratches near the tip of the blade on the back side, and there are some parts of the edge that don't look quite right when you tilt it in the light. Almost like the edge has been rolled a bit, but not quite. Maybe just a little more polished than other bits. Typical radial scratches on the tang.
Next knife for sale is a C07GS Spyderco Police. Serrated blade, G10 scales with a single stainless liner on the clip side. Blade is flat-ground ATS-55. This one does not have the Boye dent in the lock.
Defects include; Two very small nicks in the blade, one about an eighth inch from the tip, the other in the second large serration down. Other portions of the edge seem to have rolled in the same manner as the Calypso. Not really dull, but just not quite right. The black finish of the pocket clip is slightly worn at the corners, as is the finish on the screws. No original box for this one; knife will ship in a Spyderco box for a C53PS Herbst.
Last knife for sale is C23GS Spyderco Renegade. Serrated blade, Gin-1 stainless. Black G10 handles, no liners. The serrations on the blade are interesting. I'd sooner call it scalloped than serrated. Much less aggressive than a typical SpyderEdge, and probably easier to sharpen. I've never seen another like it. Made in Golden, Colorado USA. Includes original box.
Defects include light scratches on the back of the blade, and typical radial scratches at the tang. The clip has very fine scratches over the entire surface, I'm pretty this was intentional. I just noticed some light abrasion on the spine. Box has considerable shelf wear.
Now let's see, prices, payment, shipping and returns. . .
Prices-All sold. Thanks :thumbup:
Payment- I'm pretty sure I can accept payment by PayPal, but frankly, I'm pretty new at it. If for some reason that doesn't work out (and I don't know why it wouldn't,) a USPS money order would be fine.
Shipping- All knives will ship USPS Priority, insured. Shipping to US addresses only, please. Once again, shipping is included in all prices.
Proud2Deviate's Return Policy- If you feel I have grossly misrepresented the condition of any of these knives, please address your concerns to me, and I'll make a reasonable effort to make things right. If I decide a refund is in order, it will be issued after the knife is back in my possession and I'm content that you haven't tried to stab it through a cinder block or any other such nonsense.
I don't do the buyer's remorse thing. If you buy one of these knives and find out that you could have gone elsewhere and got a better knife cheaper, tough toenails. It is assumed that anyone buying these knives is going to be an adult and prepared to accept adult consequences for their adult actions.
Knives will go to the first "I'll take it," or similar, as determined by the time stamp on email, PM or post.
