For Sale, $225 (SOLD), insured and shipped anywhere a USPS small flat-rate box will go. Retail on this is $420.
Well maintained user Reate Knives K1 in M390, carbon fiber inlay, and blue-anodized titanium scales.
This is the passaround knife from this thread. I like the knife a fair bit and carried it during the passaround and for about a month after I got it, but I find my ZT0900 preferable, and I tend not to keep knives I don't carry. The flipping action is good and reliable, but not snappy. I'd describe it as more of a hydraulic feel. There are carry and use snail trails on blade and titanium, and one noticeable scuff on the clip. No damage to the carbon fiber. There is no rust or discoloration on the knife other than the snail trails.
Blade Length : 3.8”
Blade Thickness:0.157"
Overall Length:8.8’’
Blade Material: M390
Hardness:60-62HRC
Handle Material:6AL4V Titanium
Inlay Material : Carbon Fiber
Weight:4.93 oz
Locking:Frame Lock (~30% lockup)
Comes with Reate padded case, silk drawstring bag, and microfiber cleaning cloth.

Cash is king, but potential trades include ZT, Spyderco (NIB knives with forest green handles will get strong consideration- oddly, I need one in this color combination for a gift), Reate, interesting stainless custom, semi-custom, or production fixed blades.
TERMS
1. First unconditional "I'll take it" by a member in good reputation who follows up by PM or e-mail within 24 hours for payment details- Paypal Goods and Services or USPS money order only.
2. I do my very best to ship next business day after payment processes and have not failed to do this yet.
3. I will not be held responsible if an international buyer has this knife held up or confiscated by customs. Buyer responsible for knowing and complying with legal issues in their home jurisdiction.
4. This knife is in good condition, but it is being sold as a user.
5. I do my best to make buyers happy with their purchase. I will hold payment for three days from USPS delivery or until the buyer confirms by e-mail or PM that he or she is happy. If I have not heard back within three days, I will assume you are satisfied. I will refund dissatisfied buyers via Paypal F&F for the net amount I received for the purchase less shipping once I receive the knife back in my possession.
