LNIB SCHF5N and an SCHF14.
I say "like" new as they have both been out of the boxes (which are included along with everything that came in the box), played with and, in the case of the SCHF14, cut a hoagie (or sub or grinder, depending on where you are from.) The 5N never cut anything and both knives are indistinguishable from the way I received them but I share their experience (or lack thereof) in full disclosure. The 14 was wiped clean after lunch, then washed and lightly coated with mineral oil; I kid you not, all my knives get treated that way as I am basically a carbon steel guy.
The 5N is too much like my Becker 11s and while the 14 is cool, it falls in between the size and function of any number of folder and fixed blade knives that I would have on me anyways. They are both good bang for the buck, good warranty and cool blades.
My loss is your gain.
$40 for the pair shipped CONUS (PP gift, M.O. or +3%)
