SOME BIG PRICE DROPS
Up for grabs I have a bunch of fun items. Cleaning the knife drawers and wanting to move some items I don't use. See "Terms" at the end (Short version: if I'm off in pricing, shoot me a PM/email; don't post random stuff; make sure it's legal; price includes shipping, PMOs welcome, Paypal should be price net to me; can ship overseas...just read the end
).
1) First up is a Spyderco Chicago, limited run of S30V steel with carbon fiber scales (not the cheap 440C and G-10 model). It's a blem--I think--probably because the blade isn't well centered (no impact on the utility of the knife). Used, not sharpened. Not used all that much, a couple stains on the blade (un-wiped fingerprints?). 2" blade that weighs next to nothing in your pocket. Lock is solid, but as mentioned, it's off center (See pics). Love it--fits the hand great as you'd expect from a Spyderco--but I find I carry larger blades. Asking $85 $60
I'm not a Spyderco fan, so no clue if it's overpriced or about right. Of you want it and think I'm way off, contact me and tell me what you think a fair price might be.
2) Next is a Victorinox SwissTool multi tool. I got this "as new" on the Forum a couple years ago and never used it. They are still making and selling for $105-$150. I MIGHT have the pouch for it, though I can't recall off I ever got one. Don't expect one and be surprised if there's one in the box. Call it near new or very lightly used. I can't remember EVER using it and it looks pretty unsoiled.
Asking $65 $55
3) Lightly carried LA Police Gear brand "TBFK" S35VN steel folder. Lost this and bought a second one before I found it again (which is why I'm selling this off). I was prepared to be disappointed, but this is one of the best folders I have ever owned. Centered perfectly, buttery smooth bearings (or is it the bronze washers?). Perfectly contoured G-10 handles. Two small areas of imperfection in the grind--micro-chip (almost missed it) or burr near the handle, and not a perfect grind on the tip. I've used the heck out of the other one and cannot believe the value it is. Yes, it's made in China, but LAPG sources one of CPM's better cutlery super steels, and the heat treatment protocols seem to be spot on (the one I'm using doesn't have any complaints at least). Asking $30 SOLD
($5 less than LAPG, plus you don't have to pay shipping.

4) Odd one. A Gerber genuine Stag Scale grip 3" gentleman's lock-back folder with etched nickel-silver bolsters. I probably dropped this in my pocket a time or two, but looks brand new. Never sharpened. Just a beautiful knife to remind is of a simpler time when gentlemen (or women) settled their differences and defended their honor with a pair of six-shooters. Haven't seen one like this in YEARS. Asking $35 $25
5) New in package (package isn't pristine) Gerber "Uppercut" boot/neck knife/push dagger. Injection molded sheath isn't the best (I have a couple others) but it works. Both sides sharpened. Very nice little knife--sheaths are hit or miss. Asking $30 (was a $40-45 one-off, I believe)
TERMS:
- If you like something but say to yourself "What was he thinking with that price?" Then ask me too. Open to reasonable offers. Especially if I'm really off base (better price on eBay or Amazon for the same item? Show me and I'll beat it if I can!). You wanna buy, I wanna sell. We shouldn't let silly things like prices get in the way of us getting you what you need.
- Must be 18 to buy and legal for you to own. Your purchase serves as your acknowledgement and guarantee that you know your laws and are in compliance and that you hold me not legally responsible for any of your willful or unintentional violations of your laws (I'm not a store and can't keep up). In other words, if I sell to you in good faith and you find out later it's not legal for you to own, you don't get a refund and the police know I am not running an illegal blade ring out of my living room
- Prices include shipping. PMO is fine as is PayPal (please add 3%; your call on "no fees" options for sending money; ask of you don't understand).
-I will ship as cheaply as I can. Might be First Class, might be Priority. If you GOTTA HAVE IT NOW, I'll ask that you pay the difference, if any, for the faster method.
- First unequivocal "I'll take it" followed by an email/PM takes it. DO NOT POST "I'll take it," and then email me a low ball offer. I won't sell it to you if you use that tactic to try and scare off interested parties.
- ONLY things here should be "I'll take it" related posts. All questions, comments, suggestions and jokes should remain in email or PM channels. Thanks for understanding.
- I WILL ship overseas, BUT I will not lie on forms, I WILL ask you to pay the difference in shipping, I WILL insist you pay using PayPal "gift"options (no exceptions), and I will state that ALL risk is on you. Gets lost in the mail or lifted at the border, I'll do what I can to locate it, but you agree not to hold me in any way responsible. Ordering from me is in implicit and explicit agreement to these terms.
