[ShadyMethods]

Hi everyone. I'm trying to switch up the collection a bit so here are some knives up for trade. I'll be here to answer any questions you might have. I can give more details, specs, and pictures if you ask. If you're interested, feel free to start a conversation or email me at kenleung1995 at hotmail dot com. I also check my threads fairly often so I'll see your posts. If you just want a straightforward sale, let me know and we can have something worked out. Thanks for taking a looking.

For trades, I'm looking for a: Spyderco Sliverax, Spyderco Shaman, Striders, Olamics, Chris Reeves, Hinderer XM-18 with a Harpoon Spanto or Sparrow grind, Brous Anti Up, Ferrum Forges, Curtiss knives, Sharp By Designs, a Paragon Warlock, Emerson Big Bulldog, Emerson Aftershock, ZT 0454, WE Knives Eschaton, G&G Hawk Orbit, G&G Hawk TAD Dauntless, Microtech Stitch, some balisongs, and a Graham Razel but I'll be happy to hear other offers. Worst I can do is pass and cash can be added either way.
