All of these knives are up for trade! I’m primarily looking for US trades to keep shipping simple, though I will accept Canadian offers.
I am willing to ship first in most situations due to my own position with zero feedback. I understand any sort of transaction with a new member such as myself can be awkward or dangerous, and as such I endeavor to do anything I can in order to reduce such issues. I have bought two knives here on the exchange, but I have only sold so far on fleabay.
One for one trades, and multiple for one trades are accepted, as well as “are you interested in any of these…” questions.
I accept any offers, as well as + and - cash offers, but here are some of the specific knives I’m looking for…
BRS Evolve Eon,
MBK XLC,
MBK Sea Otter,
Reate knives,
WE knives,
Real Steel knives,
A +3” non slipjoint Hinderer,
Shiros in general,
A CKF,
Anything else neat y’all might have to offer!
PM with offers, questions, or anything else you want to contact me with! I’m typically awake from about 7:00 AM to 9:00 PM Centrl US time, so outside of those hours don’t expect a fast response!
First up is a Reate Iron customized with Spydie Hole, acid wash, and lightning ano on the backspacer, clip, and showside inlay. Micarta surrounding inlays, Ti framelock, 3.25” M390 blade. Light wear on both scales, but no large or standout scratches/wear. The blade has a few dark marks on the acid wash, visible at the right angle. I’m unsure if these are removable, what they’re from, or when the blade was marked. The lockup is solid. No blade play. Detent and action are both Reate quality. Though the flipper is nice, the Spydie hole takes it to another level. I have lived it, worked the action, and flicked it incessantly since I received it. The edge has been mirrored and is very sharp. No box or goodies.
Next up is my LNIB WE Upshot. No. 106 of 410. Blacked out 3.47” 20CV blade, Ti framelock, ano’d clip. Has cut exactly one piece of paper. No marks, no anything. Aside from a few hours of carry in which it received zero use, this knife is mint. Zero blade play, great detent, perfect centering, solid lockup, and awesome action. Hasn’t been broken in, so I’m sure it could be even better. This is the blacked out blade version. Comes with box, certificate, and all the goodies. I do carry this one, and it’s a very good edc, but it’s worth more to me traded or sold than kept. This one is posted on an auction site whose name I can’t mention, so it WILL sell sooner or later.

Next I have a WE Balaenoptera. Has cut nothing but paper, and been carried one day by me without use. Purple Ti framelock handle, and 3.55” blacked out M390 blade. No wear, no issues. Action is smooth, but it doesn’t have that amazing WE snap like the Upshot does. Lockup is strong, no blade play, centering is perfect. Basically mint as well. Comes with pouch and microfiber cloth but nothing else. I just don’t carry it, so up it goes for trade!

Finally I have my Adam Purvis Xerx Integral! This is a very nice knife, and I actually just bought it recently here on the exchange. The reason it’s up for trade is that while I like it a lot, I’d also like to try out some other knives as well. Ti integral framelock, 3.5” blacked out harpoon M390 blade (I believe it’s PVD), milled clip. There are two or three tiny little scratches/snail trails on the handle that I’ll do my best to show in video, but otherwise it’s in extremely good condition. Carried once or twice by me. I don’t know about the previous owner. Centering is dead on, lockup is strong. Zero blade play, and the detent is very nice. The action is quite smooth. The flipper tab is a bit of an unusual shape, and does take some getting used to. It needs something in between a light switch and a push button, and as such I spent a day with a bruised index finger before I got the hang of it. The pocket clip is really, really nice. It’s honestly the best milled pocket clip I’ve ever used; it has that perfect balance of tension that allows me to take it out of my jeans pocket, use it, close it, and put it back in all with one hand and no trouble.

Thanks!
