I'll be here to answer any questions you might have about what's listed. For more details, specs, or pictures, ask and ye shall receive. You can reach me through private message or email. 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 pay via F&F, assume all risks, and cover the cost of shipping. Thanks for your time.
For trades, I'm looking for: Yunas, DireWares, GTC's, Demkos, Southards, TuffKnives, Sharknivcos, Rocksteads, Greg Lightfoots, Neil Blackwoods, a Todd Begg Beggatti, Rassenti Snafu, Zero Tolerance 0454, Dervish Alchemy XL. Medford Infraction, Grimsmo Norseman, and maybe a custom Emerson or Strider but if you have other offers, I'm happy to hear them. I'll trade up or down and cash can be added either way. Worst I can do is pass.
If you are planning to send me an email through the forum, please post on the thread as well to let me know. Some of those are lost in transit and never reach my mailbox.
1. Peter Rassenti Nirvana - near mint - $1150 --> Traded
Full sized version with 3.75" of cutting edge and a working finish blade
Integral one-piece ti handle
Handle and clip have his Frankenstein-stitch pattern and was tumbled
Satin finished zirconium pivot collar that also has the pattern
Centering very slightly favors the presentation side but it might re-center if you adjust the pivot
Secure lockup and smooth action
2. Crusader Forge Street Fighter - brand new in box - $925
Chisel ground drop point with a swedge; blade measures 5"
Phantom finish on the blade with flamed handle slabs
Handle has milling on the front and is flamed in a pattern that matches the mill work
The blade is dead center on this one
Smooth action on GTC bearings
Solid lockup with no play in any direction
Will arrive with all the original packaging and paperwork
3. Doc Shiffer Custom Designated Marksman - like new - $715
Very well made 3.75"-4" flipper
Hamon on the blade
Sculpted bronze working finish titanium handle with polished highs
Gear-pattern backspacer
If you grab the blade and really force it, there is the slightest bit of up-and-down play but zero side-to-side, doesn't affect the function at all
It has one of the best actions I've handled, liquid smooth and it will open regardless of how you use the flipper
The blade sits dead center in the handle
Feels great in hand in a number of different grips
4. DireWare Solo V5 - near mint - $1000
M390 blade with their recurve grind
Blade had stonewashed flats with satin finished grinds
Handle is tumbled ti with "12" marked on the inside of both slabs
Has been lightly carried and used
The only wear I see on it is a small ding on the corner of the front of the handle
Action is glass smooth, one of the smoothest I've handled
Solid lockup and perfect centering
